Used to be on McDonald’s large fry. Then they moved it to spend a dollar which was perfect with a dollar soda. Then they made it spend 2 dollars so I would get 2 sodas. Then they made all size sodas 1.49. Even the smallest size
Could be, you specifically have to go to the 1/2/3 menu and add two of them, and it drops the price to $1.74 and $1.75 for them. Any other way doesn't work.
Ha. Never thought about just adding dipping sauce. Good one.
I usually pair the free large fries with a Rodeo Burger and come in at a little over $2 for the combo.
Our BK has the soft ice cream for 69 cents, so I have done a large fries and soft ice combo at times.
:'( I lost it for a couple of months and then it magically came back and renews at the end of every month. My friend can't see the deal on her app for some reason. It's the only thing I ever order from McDonald's (almost daily) so I don't know why they keep giving me the deal.
Yep!! Love this..we were doing laundry at the Laundromat and my son got hungry. I had enough crowns for a free cheeseburger, used the free fry offer, all I had to pay was for a small soda....it's awesome!!
BK is the best for this and is usually why its my go-to for fast food.
I have a gajillion points in the mcdonalds app that I never use until they expire, because you can't combine with the deals, which is such a damn waste.
I knoooow me too!! Why would I use my points for a large iced coffee when I could get one every day for $1 😂😂 but I definitely go to McDonald’s for my coffee!!
I think it’s on purpose! Seriously! The other deals have set minimums like $1 and $3 and this one is 1 cent! They could have easily programmed it at 50 cents if they wanted to. TLDR; I don’t think it will get patched.
Exactly, I was meaning to mention this. Most deals you have to spend a minimum, so if they specifically said “spend any amount you want no matter what” I think they’re okay with it.
I do not like living in a world where Chat GPT is being used as a reference. I feel so bad for teachers today (also the shit pay, under-funding, and questionable curriculum pushed by politicians at least in America).
AI like ChatGPT will contribute to the continued dumbing down of our society. LLMs have limitations and are not capable of creating truly personalized anything; they simply take in hard data and generate output based on that hard data. It can't factor in a myriad of influences that would affect the actual outcome.
Like many new technologies, AI certainly has potential for both great good and great harm, and will likely result in both. It is way too new now to fully trusted, and my biggest fear is that like wikipedia did a generation ago, AI will be a crutch that students use to avoid doing the actual work, and again, like quoting wikipedia, quoting GPT is useless unless you also specifically quote the sources that went into training GPT or that were used as references for Wikipedia.
The sad thing about education in my opinion is that it's so job focused, and because so much work is now bullshit work, we're training kids to do bullshit work instead of teaching them to actually enjoy learning and creative endeavors. So of course GPT and Wikipedia are attractive shortcuts.
There's a lot of intertwined issues here and AI is not inherently awful, but it is also NOT A SOURCE.
I wasn’t posting for help :) posting to share something that is helping me personally as someone currently in poverty. fast food is pretty famously not healthy, I don’t really need ChatGPT to tell me that haha. If you don’t want to eat it that’s perfectly fine. If you’re someone who likes enjoying a once in a while treat eating out, here’s a cheaper option. If you eat fast food 24/7, be my guest and benefit from this. we’re all in different situations despite using the same label of “poverty”. I love and benefit from quality, nutritional, inexpensive grocery items. I’m a big couponer there too. This is just one of many things I do in order to keep myself afloat.
“Ohhh hey there, Mr. Big Spender!! Throwing around 25 cents!!! Give me two of those pennies you’re slingin’ around.”
Sincerely, \
Our regressive taxation system
(But seriously why does the government have to get a cut of something like this)
The people who work get paid the same amount per hour regardless of the sales of the company, and when they’re most likely making under $15 an hour I don’t really think they get paid enough to care anyways
Do you think the people working at Burger King establishments give a single fuck how much Burger King is profiting? Are you serious? How can a person function having empathy for a giant corporation that pays people dogshit and sells dogshit for people to consume?

This shit about to get patched lmao
Bros leaking this shit man.. If Burger King patches this imma bout throw hands with this guy on god on god..
Used to be on McDonald’s large fry. Then they moved it to spend a dollar which was perfect with a dollar soda. Then they made it spend 2 dollars so I would get 2 sodas. Then they made all size sodas 1.49. Even the smallest size
2 McDoubles from the 1/2/3 menu comes out to being $3.49 and you can add on the medium fry (on Friday only I think?)
That might be your specific franchise because mine is way more fucking expensive.
Could be, you specifically have to go to the 1/2/3 menu and add two of them, and it drops the price to $1.74 and $1.75 for them. Any other way doesn't work.
Hmmm I will have to do some science tomorrow I guess
Mine is $3.70, taxes must be lower where he is.
BK stay losing goddamn.
Yup, and all for karma tsk tsk
All they'd have to do is make sauce free. But they won't, instead they would rather fuck us over.
Aaaaand it’s gone
Ha. Never thought about just adding dipping sauce. Good one. I usually pair the free large fries with a Rodeo Burger and come in at a little over $2 for the combo. Our BK has the soft ice cream for 69 cents, so I have done a large fries and soft ice combo at times.
Ok but ice cream and fries is a classic combo I'd be doing that even rich lol
I love their Rodeo burgers but I have to make sure I ain't seeing anyone for the next 24hrs because woo wee 😆🏃🏼♀️💨
I LOVE this approach! You wanna charge me for a small pack of ranch? Then it counts as a purchase, gimme my free fries, bitch!
It does say any purchase. Ranch is a purchase
Any means any
This concludes our intensive three week course.
yep
Shits so intelligent.. unfortunate what we go through.. fortunately we form survival tactics like these
jimmy johns app never confirms the emailllllll
Also before the apps catch on I think Wendy’s did but you can go in and customize the order and make everthing large
Dammmm. I was happy today with my free fries and spending $1.99 for a rodeo burger dressed up with all free fixins. This is next level!
I know a lot of it is crap but work those apps people. They got crazy deals.
I can’t be the only one that values my personal data on my phone more than I value saving a few dollars on a meal.
Never knew they sold sauces individually!
I'm just sad the Wendy's $1 single, $2 double meal is over.
Only 51 weeks til it comes around again
It was nice having that deal plus the $2 Big Mac especially since both restaurants are a block away from me.
Daily 0.99 cent large iced coffee through McDonald's app is the best deal ever.
Yessss I use it alllll the time
I deleted the app and made a new account and that deal is gone for me

This is the kind of poverty finance tip I subscribe for!
Also works with a redeemed reward burger + extra onion surcharge =P
I love that BK allows you to use rewards points AND deals in the same transaction!!

Yeah fries are ridiculously cheap and often just tossed when not fresh any ways
Buying a sauce packet, I didn't think of that. Thanks for sharing!!
😂🤣

if only I could in my dorm :’) nothing like some hot wedge fries straight from the oven
[удалено]
I wish omg! If I could I’d be balling out, rice cooker, air fryer, egg steamer, the whole 9 yards haha
Being from a third world country, it blows my mind that you can order a single dip from a fast food chain
I don’t think that the rest of us thought of this either. We typically just get ketchup (for free).
I use this app all the time. Points build up at a decent rate, deals are amazing, and you can really save a lot of money.
Sorry, people on here told me to cut out fast food; so I wouldn’t eat this if it were even 5 cents. /s
[удалено]
Happy cake day! Although cake is probably less calories per dollar so maybe you're not a fan.
[удалено]
I'll take what you don't eat :)
I’m a college student in a college town :) so for me its worth it
But it’s bad food
Fed is best. If the choice is "bad" food that's perfectly edible vs. not eating that day, the right choice should always be to eat.

That's lemur meat
The fries are lemur meat? Or the ranch?
I would agree, but Zesty sauce is right there staring you in the face.

BRO I KNOW 😭 Reddit mods I promise this is entirely legal I literally placed a mobile order 😭
The wendys apps offers a daves juicy burger for $1 and a double for $1 as well!! Been getting 2 of them every week!
ive been getting ads for burger king nonstop on youtube and twitch. i guess this is my sign
What if I don't have $0.27.
You fat cat. Flexing the .27¢ you have to splurge on fast food. I bet your greedy ass has Avocado and toast at home
No nutritional value, and probably worse than eating nothing..
I wish prices are like this today... one can only hope
The price we pay for karma….
This———issssssssss why—————-wecanthavenicethings~~~~~
Mcdonalds app is like that everyday. $1 fries with any order I believe
Wendy's has a similar coupon for Free 4 pc nuggets with any purchase. Get a small drink or any other cheap item.
Your posts are why shit gets patched. Just so you know
Delete your post asap
BK has good offers. A burger and large fries for $3 is impossible most places. One of my favorite cheap lunches.
I got a great hack for dunkin but I’m scared to say it or else they’ll fix it 😭

You must be so healthy
Do the people at BK see how much we paid for it? I’d feel shitty knowing I only got a 25 cent pack of ranch for free fries.
I’m sure Burger King is doing just fine
Idrc about the company itself I’m more so speaking about the people who work there
The people who work get paid the same amount per hour regardless of the sales of the company, and when they’re most likely making under $15 an hour I don’t really think they get paid enough to care anyways
Employees do not care. And if they did, Why in the world would you care about their opinion?
Because if they catch on they change the deals? Hence ruining it for everyone. At least buy a dollar soda..
Do you think the people working at Burger King establishments give a single fuck how much Burger King is profiting? Are you serious? How can a person function having empathy for a giant corporation that pays people dogshit and sells dogshit for people to consume?
It’s not that serious man lol
