Maybe it depends on the McDonald's franchisee in your area, I never see free fries in the app but it's always "any size fries for $1.29" (which is still massively cheaper than their normal price).


Yep, it’s region and even sub-region specific. Sometimes different McD near me (a couple of miles apart) have different deals.

Where I live the one closest always has a BOGO breakfast sandwich while the one closer to my parents (3hrs away) will do a “buy one, get $1 off another”.

It’s crazy how much cheaper things are when using the apps for fast food places. I regularly save $3-5 using some $1-item/BOGO/%-off type of coupon.


Yeah I think the promos are very region dependent. I've never seen that one, for instance. Yours is worse for a medium, but way better because it lets you save money on a large!


Yeah. I was once driving home to Minnesota from Wisconsin. I was getting gas, opened to app, looked at the deals, and decided I’d rather eat later. Once I was in Minnesota a lot of them changed.
