Don’t be surprised if the fast food giant’s high-profile deal costs more than its name suggests.
A $5 Meal Deal at McDonald’s includes a McChicken sandwich, four-piece Chicken McNuggets with choice of sauce, small fries and a small drink on Tuesday, June 25. The deal appeared on McDonald’s app after 10:30 a.m. Tuesday, the time restaurants switch over from their breakfast menu.The deal includes four items from the fast food giant’s existing $1 $2 $3 Dollar Menu.
The spot check showed several restaurants are charging $6 for the combo with the burger and $5 for the chicken sandwich. A McDouble features two beef patties, one slice of American cheese, pickle slices, chopped onion, ketchup and mustard on a regular bun. It is almost the same as a Double Cheeseburger, the chain’s website acknowleges. The difference is that it has one less slice of cheese.
Several items on the Dollar Menu are on the higher end — some higher than $3, actually — and a spot check of franchises suggested that buying the sandwich, McNuggets, fries and drink individually could cost $10.06-$10.66.
