Move over, 4 for $4! There’s a new fast food deal in town, and it’s not from Wendy’s. That’s right; McDonald’s is adding a major deal to their menu that customers are going to love—but only for a limited time, and only through their mobile app.
Here’s the deal: when you order through the McDonald’s mobile app through September 4, you’ll be able to get a Crispy, Spicy, or Deluxe Chicken Sandwich, medium fries, and a soft drink for $5. Unfortunately, this deal can only be redeemed once per week. (But, let’s be honest, if you could, you’d probably get it way more than that.)

Sorry, burger lovers. Strangely enough, this deal is only an option with McDonald’s chicken sandwiches like the one in the Instagram post above (which, to be fair, looks delicious). If you want to get the most bang for your buck on a juicy cheeseburger, you may want to stick with Wendy’s or Burger King.
Similar to this new offering from McDonald’s, the popular Wendy’s 4 for $4 deal gives customers a sandwich (whether that’s a burger or chicken sandwich), chicken nuggets, fries, and a drink for (you guessed it!) a frugal $4. Burger King’s $5 Your Way meal will give you the same for a dollar more.

Considering the success of these deals, it’s no wonder McDonald’s decided to hop on board the value train and offer a little more than their $1, $2, and $3 mix and match menu. We’re interested to see if they make this $5 meal a permanent deal. But for now, we’re getting our hands on it ASAP while it’s still available!
