McDonald’s New Chicken Nuggets Promotion Is A Steal

It seems there is some sort of meal deal everywhere you go now, whether it is Taco Bell, Wendy’s, or even Starbucks.  McDonald’s (which already has a $5 Meal Deal) has upped the game with yet another new promotion for the month of November. For the entire month, the 10-piece Chicken McNuggets will only cost customers $1. Yes, you read that correctly: this is a McNugget dollar deal.

$1 dollar McNuggets? What’s the catch?

For 10 Chicken McNuggets, a dollar is not a bad deal; but, there is a certain way to go about claiming your McNuggets for that extremely low price. It’s simple to receive your 10 piece nugget deal, but you will have to go through the McDonald’s app.

There are two ways to get your $1 McNuggets after you have downloaded the free McDonald’s app onto your mobile device: you can order the McNuggets through the app, or you can claim a code through the app to present in the restaurant when dining in or picking up. Sounds easy enough, but there are also two more small catches to this promotional deal. 

The first catch is that you can only order the $1 McNuggets once a week. The second catch is that this promotion is a limited offer that will end on December 2, 2024.

The Chicken McNugget $1 deal isn’t the only new promotion that will be exclusively available through the app. McDonald’s is also launching a  Free Fries Friday promotion later this month. 

What is the McDonald’s Free Fries Friday promotion?

The Free Fries Friday is another easy promotion to claim, since all you need to do is spend at least $1 on either food or drinks off the McDonald’s menu. After you’ve spent more than $1, you will receive a medium-sized french fry on your order. Like the Chicken McNuggets promotion, you can only cash in on this deal once a week on Fridays. Unlike the McNugget promotion, though, which ends on December 2, the $1 fries promotion will be sticking around until December 27, 2024.

What is McDonald’s current $5 meal deal?

Another current promotion at McDonald’s is the $5 meal deal, which, unlike the other two promotions, is not exclusive to the app. The $5 meal deal consists of the choice between a McDouble or McChicken, a four piece McNugget, small fries, and a small drink of your choice. While this deal isn’t limited to the app only, app-users can enjoy special perks. When ordering the $5 meal deal on a Free Fries Friday, app-users will get the free medium french fries added onto their meal order as well.

If you are a chicken nugget lover, download the McDonald’s app , and don’t forget to cash in on the $1 dollar 10-piece McNugget deal before it ends on December 2.
