Just like at TB- you HAVE to use the McD app if you want any sort of good deal. You can often get a free any size fry with purchase.

I only get their fries if I have points for a free medium or go on Friday and get a large fry for a $1. I could never spend $5 on fries.

Fries are (almost always) free in the app under “Deals.”

The cravings box is ten dollars where I live
Duckaneer
there are overpriced items at both restaurants, you’re comparing the best taco bell price and the worst mcdonalds price. a doritos locos tacos is $4 at my store on its own
Berzatto
Well if we’re comparing with the app you gotta show the good stuff also. You can get a big mac combo for like $5 or $6 on the McD app also. Often free fries. Bogos. They have a lot of sports partnerships so free stuff when one of those teams scores a home run or certain amount of TDs. McDonalds is holding us cheap people down also.

No see, when you buy 5 dollar fries you’re paying for my fries too when I use the daily refreshed coupon for any size fries for 1.29. You’re subsidizing me bro and I appreciate you.

I get the 2 for 3.50 at McDs, mcdouble spicy mcchicken. No fries needed. Taco bell lost me when they doubled their prices and dropped their quality. And by no means is mcdonalds “quality ” but, at least I don’t feel like I got ripped off for what I paid for

Wow.

Cravings box is $6.49 in my county. CBR went up to 1.49 recently too.

Not comparable. Like others said, you’re showing the worst value at McDonald’s vs. the best value at Taco Bell. $5 won’t even get you a cheese quesadilla at TB. Where I live, with the app a large fries is $1.39. The cravings box is $6.99.

A large fry at my McDonalds is $3.89 and the $5 box at Taco Bell is $8
coocoocachoo69
Mcdonalds fries are only $2.99 here. You can’t just pick a random item to compare and declare across the board like that lol. I’ve had mcdonald’s offer me $1 big macs for like a week straight once. You can get bogo double cheese on app often, my wife and I will get 4 double cheese for $6 and that’s a good deal. Every fast food place has good deals off and on.

In the app, $5 gets you a medium fry, medium drink, and burger
TrappedinTX
My McDonald’s has a deal where you buy a double cheeseburger for $2.99 you can get another burger or 6pc mcnugget for .29¢, get a small fry for $1.99..thats $5.27. That’s quite a bit of food for a similar price.

$5 does get me at McDonald’s 2 McDoubles and a medium fries with the app. All bout finding the values in both places
P_Metcalf
I get a free 10 piece nugget every time I use the McDs app. 10 piece, large fry, large drink for like $4.80. McDonald’s is always cheaper than Taco Bell for me.

This is incorrect:
1) McDonald’s app has free fries with any purchase and/or any purchase over $2. This pretty much never goes away.
2) That particular box is $5 for you, but not a single Taco Bell near me sells it for less than $8.
And using 1), I can grab a large drink, 2 McDoubles, and a large fry at McDonald’s for $5.
FreudsPenisRing
Do y’all not have the buy 2 for $3.50 burgers? Two McDoubles? That’s still pretty good
chris1987w
My recent McDonald’s order
Big Mac free with $2 purchase with app
Double cheeseburger and small fry 2 for $3.50 deal
Large drink $1.25
Total $4.75
Starsunnysky
Isn’t this heavily dependent on the pricing in your area? For me the cravings box is 10.99
Sky_Rose4
There a free and 1.00 large fries deals all the time at McDonald’s just use the app
chadder_b
Terrible comparison. You literally picked out just a $5 item from McDonalds. There is so much more you can get for $5.
lolanaboo_
Lg fry $1.40 Monday-Thursday on the app on Fridays it’s a free medium with a $1 or more purchase lmao if you’re paying full price for that junk you just dumb
nuu_uut
I just got a quarter pounder with cheese (with extra ketchup, add mayo, extra onions. None of which was an additional charge) and a 10 piece nugget with 4 sauces for $4.89. This is misleading. McDonald’s, if you use the app, is a better deal.

Far better comparison.
Crazy how a potato or 2 is costing so much to cut/deep fry it with some salt.
The fries are always free if you use the app anyways 😂. I get bacon McDouble and mcchicken and a free large fry for $3.99
