Just ask for an icecream cone in a cup. M&Ms have no price, so they should give them to you free of charge, like in my case.
Usual price for an M&Ms McFlurry is $4.65, you that's not a bad deal at all.

JV would be furious, where is he?
a small handful of m&m's is hardly a 'hack'
maybe it only works after midnight
its not the full size of the mcflurry and i find thats good because i don't want a huge one. thanks for the tip
You should of been charged $0.50 for the m&m topping..
"have"
've
Have been doing this for several months (okay, years…) and ALWAYS been charged $0.50 for a lid of toppings.
Also, this isn't getting a McFlurry for this price; so your title is misleading if not outright wrong.Don't they serve the soft serve in the lid, if you ask for no cone?
Yeah, normally.
Can also get any of the toppings. 1xM&Ms and 1xOreo with 2xsoft serve, empty large cup and spoon (just ask for a cup and spoon). Crush the cones in too, extra tasty!SOunds like someones already an expert at crushing cones ;)
Also, this isn't getting a McFlurry for this price
I mean its the same thing. Ice cream with a topping.
Ones in a cup. Ones in a cone (with less ice cream).
Been years since the mcflurry has been worth it, no point paying that much for a cup of icecream.
Some ice cream and a few M&M's don't make a McFlurry.
Yes they do. Just normally it's more.
Unless you brought your own blender into the store, no it's not a McFlurry.
Mcdonalds don't have mcflurry blenders any more sadly it's basically a sundae. Not even a special sturdy spoon or anything.
Sadly got rid of the blender about 5 years ago. They just dump the shit on top now.
Actually having worked at maccas and made McFlurry's with my own two hands I can tell you there's a flurry of activity that occurs which spins and mixes things together to make it a McFlurry. So no, it's not the same thing but more.
Doesnt a McFlurry have icecream, 1 topping and 1 sauce?
McFlurry is just ice-cream and topping. As per OP's photo (but obviously larger)
ice-cream
Is it?
I don't know about you, but I've been shoving my finger in a soft serve and self-flurrying for years
I think that's illegal in some states….
Remeber coning?
ˈkɒpɪkat
MnMs are usually 50c and they'll give you that with some ice-cream in a sundae lid for $1; not exactly a McFlurry. This is like saying you can get a cheap quarter pounder by ordering a cheeseburger.
This is like saying you can get a cheap quarter pounder by ordering a cheeseburger
Now that's deal worthy ;)
This is like saying you can get a cheap quarter pounder for a 6 foot person by ordering a cheeseburger if you are 5 foot.
Well if you order one a cone at HJ's, ad some M&Ms, and use the survey/receipt to get a free cheeseburger, it's like a McFlurry and Quarter Pounder for $1 ?
Definition of McFlurry basterdised here a lot, but good tip to get ice cream with m and M's in a cone for 50c - Cheers.
Sounds like it will more likely be $1, as they should be charging for M&Ms as well - but still cheapish
Hey OP, do you know if you got a new staff member?
Hey… Isn't this the true spirit of Oz bargin - go easy..
….so much discussion/passion over a cup of self serve and some candy.
I'd call it chocolate.
chocolate candy?
i think thats the most accurate…wouldnt you agree?
Chocolate lollies!
Sugar-coated chocolate candy.
Its been posted before. Many times.
https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/131568I am sure the size of your 1 cone isnt the same amount of ice cream you would get in an actual mcflurry. At least the post above even though expired and from a while ago got it right.
Good find. 1730 upvotes can't be wrong & a 3 cone deal😯
This deal's saving is incorrect & not a McFlurry as described.
Nice detective work
Apple for Apples?
What you have there is in now way the size of a McFlurry so your savings are way off.
The normal price of what is in that pic is not $4.65
OP is silly
🍦🍦🍦That's what happens when you have too many fake McFlurrys🍦🍦🍦
The shame in asking for this is too much. My self esteem would be in tatters knowing McDonalds staff have such pity on someone that would order this
I'll often get Oreo added to a choc sundae. Cheaper than mcflurry plus get choc topping.
You win the fake mcflurry thread.
Would be good for kids tho
I think you're on the wrong site if you have 'shame' in getting a mini McFlurry for $1, rather then paying the ripped off $4-5+.
However, if you do not want to say it to the staff directly, you can order it using the self machine.
You're ashamed about making a cheap McDonald's order?
They don't even flurry the McFlurry's anymore. They're awful.
This is embarrassing, similar to begging on the side of the street.
begging usually is dictated by need …this a bit more like prostituting your dignity for the sake of a cheap dessert :P
Having your 'dignity' tied to not being willing to order something a little strange, is more pitiful to me than prostituting yourself for icecream
ps I'm not replying to you, I know you were making a joke, I thought it was funny
This was funny two years ago
Gosh people get upset really easily.
coffee + sugar- you can get free sugar with your coffee if you ask for sugar.
Isn't the cones like 30c tho?
Isn't sure it is or it is not.
*their
You were lucky to get the M&Ms added for free. Usually they cost 50 cents extra. There is a line item for them in the McDonalds register.
Since multiple comments suggest that this was a pricing error, this thread will be marked as such and moved to forums.
Sugar… is bad
Don't worry they blend some fat through it to balance it out
OK sugar laden fruit.
sugar laden fruit.—->osama bin laden—->9/11—->illuminati confirmed
Such ozbargain
Not another one of these……hmmm
