Our Verdict
Basically some free McDonald’s if you have a worthless international coin. I always end up with lots of coins that I never end up using. Shame that it doesn’t include the double grand mcextreme bacon burger I guess, but ‘free’ is ‘free’ I guess. For more free food deals click here.
Got the Canadian chicken sandwich earlier today with a 10 centimos Peruvian sol coin, so ~$0.03! I came in around 4:50pm and wasn’t the first one that did the promo so luckily the cashier knew what I was talking about. She called a coworker over and they both stood there and stared at it for a moment, was kind of funny. Cool promo by McD though.
Did my tour today, grabbed the bacon burger (pretty decent with gouda), and 2 stroopwafel mcflurrys. all for 3 euro cents!
Hit up a few McDonalds in close proximity, scored 3 grilled chicken sandwiches and a bacon burger for 4 euro cents
traded .50 mexican pesos for a chicken sandwich for lunch, about to go back with a 5 hungarian forint coin for dinner, hopefully not the same cashiers lol
I brought along my stash of Canadian pennies and handed them out to everyone in line. Just doing my part to put McDonald’s out of business 🙂 I got the Bacon burger at one location and the McFlurry at another.
Easy success! Bicycled over to the corner Mcdonalds and got a chicken sandwich. Then biked diagonal to a Walmart Mcdonalds and picked up the bacon burger and the bacon fries. Manager at #2 Walmart was happy to see me being the 1st at this location with an hour to go so pleased to offer me two items. Total cost for 3 items – 5 euro cents. Also gave the cashier’s daughter hanging around a 10 euro cent to pass on the good will. I promised the 2nd manager to leave a good online review because of the positive experience.. Total time spent biking and ordering < 30 minutes.
Still time in the western states for this Canadian penny McDeal.
no sign advertising the promo…just the rotating graphic showing their international specials. The cashier said somebody had already done it…and I arrived at 2pm more or less.
Interesting they run the promotion 2-5, most people are working so can’t take advantage of it. Only those who have become millionaires after reading Doctor of Credit.
eating my bacon burger right now….they even made it a double…without asking. Did purchase a small fries, so can’t say my meal only cost me 1 canadian penny.
I went to two McDonalds. Neither seemed to know about it. Both were happy to
