As others have said, use the app. Got a double cheeseburger and a free medium fries there today, and this was in Manhattan. $3.79 plus tax.
Even if you don’t use the app, if you just buy a double cheeseburger and a small fries it’s $3.99.
They're pushing their prices but there’s still cheap meals to be had.
- rchaud 3y agoWith the app, you're still paying, this time with your privacy.
- hermanradtke 3y agoIs the app giving away any more data than what was being given away by using a credit card?
- tomschlick 3y agoHow? On iPhone I only give it location permissions while I'm using the app, and I pay with Apple Pay to avoid giving them much that they would be able to correlate elsewhere.
- rchaud 3y agoAn app that needs to know your location even though you're going to the store to pick up the order?
- tomschlick 3y agoI believe they use the proximity to choose the closest store and to start the order when you get there but are still waiting in the drive-thru line to give them your name/code. I haven't tried to disable it completely, but even if I can't I dont find that limited location tracking for when I'm actually ordering food and driving there to be an issue.
- rchaud 3y agoThe only thing required for that is a zip code. In any case, once you choose a location, it can simply save that preference instead of tapping your lat/long coordinates every single time. Just more data to sell to a broker down the line.

- mintycrisp 3y agoExactly. Currently the iOS App Store has the McDonalds app as having... Data Used to Track You : Contact Info & Identifiers Data Linked to You : Purchases, Financial Info, Location, Contact Info, Search History, Browsing History, Identifiers, Usage Data and Diagnostic
- tzs 3y ago> Data Used to Track You : Contact Info & Identifiers That's email address and a device ID. > Data Linked to You : Purchases, Financial Info, Location, Contact Info, Search History, Browsing History, Identifiers, Usage Data and Diagnostic That's purchases made from the app, and info about how you paid for them. The search and browsing history are the search and browsing history from web views within the app. The usage data and diagnostics data are usage and diagnostics for that app. Putting it all together, what they get are the email you gave them when you made the account, a device ID, location, and they can see whatever you actually do in the app.
- earthling8118 3y agoThat doesn't sound right. The fries alone cost nearly that much now. I'm also nowhere near as expensive of an area.
- bonyt 3y agoFor the $3.99 one, it just becomes a bundle when ordered together. Also works with six piece nuggets. I’ve seen it on the menu in the store but it’s not incredibly prominent. And, in the app it’s basically just undocumented and the price drops when they’re both in your cart. It also doesn’t count as a promo in the app, so you can order more than one bundle and even use a promo with it as well. https://imgur.com/a/2OOF8Fm https://imgur.com/a/2OOF8Fm
