McDonald's Chicken N Cheese Burger Meal from $2.35 (Varies between Stores and Possibly Nationwide)

1484

Get a chicken n cheese burger meal from $2.35. Cheaper than buying the burger by itself for $3.

People are getting hits and misses with this hack so I would politely order the meal deal and try your luck.

Make yourself feel less guilty and swap your chips for a salad.

All drink options available. Free and cheap substitutions depending on store.

If you get a large deal, you can substitute a small drink of your choice (like a latte) for around $4.

      Weird huh. I doubt the person serving you cares.

      • +3

        True, but wouldn't let me purchase through the app

        • +1

          You can try asking for it in-store. My store priced it up as normal and it went through without any issues.

        • Same here. Anyone else successfully purchased using the app?

        • @bandana: Anyone else have success with purchasing at counter?

  • +1

    Have just read all the comments and only 3 people have reported being able to actually buy the deal and none through the app. It seems you therefore need a co-operative, knowledgeable or uncaring Maccas employee to push the right buttons in order to get this deal.

      uncaring Maccas employee

      That means it's pretty much available at every store.

      Perhaps the pimply faced yob is doing trash duty in the garden outside or u blocking the dunny

  • Couldn't do it with the app, initially they said they won't do it over the counter but then changed their minds… Burwood, NSW.

  • $2.50 George St (Strand) NSW
    Worked over the counter no questions asked but not via app - said it was out of stock

  • Can you order this via drive thru?

  • $2:35 in Vic

    ordered medium chicken and cheese meal subbing the drink for a water in Wendouree,VIC ended up $2.95 but app said out of stock. Went to the counter and they put it through anyway. Hopefully they fix this out of
    stock issue in the app.

      More likely they will fix this pricing error so you can't get this meal so cheap.

  • +1

    This is an app glitch/pricing error and it is luck of the draw and should be moved to the forums.

    • Then I wouldn't have seen this great deal!!!

  • This deal was not honoured in Warrawong, NSW. Went to to the store and it said 'out of stock'. I then went to the counter and the manager was serving next in line and would not honour the deal and continuously said that they don't do it as a meal.

    Arghhhh!!!!

    • +1

      Warrawong, warilla and shellharbour not a chance. Dapto maybe

      • No chance at all. The female manager was so stuck up as well, absolutely cringeworthy.
        I don't know if it's worth it to go to Dapto for it. Might come across another annoying, stuck up manager.

        Quite pissed off actually.

  • The app may actually work between 00:00 and 04:00 at a 24 hour Maccas. Midnight snack anyone?

  • Can you order before 4:00 and pickup after 4:00 anytime?

  • Went through the drive through at Melrose Park SA. This deal and the price came up when I ordered it, but when I moved to the payment window, they refused to honour the original price that it came up with and wanted to charge me $9.75 instead.

  • tried installing the app and it is not compatible with Mi 4i, wtf

  • This post must go

    • I get your frustration but I have already been able to order this at different stores over the counter without a single questioning look

  • I have been to 2 stores in the ACT, and both happily charged the reduced rate without any issues.

    Just ordered a large meal with Chai latte for $3.95 over the counter.

    Perhaps some managers are just mean.

    • ABSOLUTELY some managers/franchisee are stingy for the slightest amount of pennies. It's the easy-going ones with good service team that get's my business!

  • Tried this today. No dice. OOS on the app, and the counter staff refused to honour the app price. Gold Creek, ACT.

  • Just ordered 6 of these today at 4:43pm with no issues. They don't do small meal but medium for this one $3.00 , cheers

  • Don't you have to pay for it over the app first? It asks for card details…
    Can't do any order without putting in a card number.

    (It particularly says one or more products are only available between 0000-0400 before getting to that page)

    • Sound like the App is not working for this deal and people are just ordering at store

  • +2

    The manager at McDonalds Benalla wouldn't put it through, the junior entered it in the system, but the manager wouldn't let her complete the sale.

  • +2

    Went to the Yarraville Mac and they put it through manually over the counter for me. Props to the on shift supervisor!

    • Sometimes I like to make bizarre requests, just to see how the store members handle it.

      Like adding coleslaw to my wrap at KFC. Loving Chelsea Heights KFC ;)

  • App didn't work, crew member was clueless so did it over counter. I just asked how much a large chicken n cheese meal was and said yeah okay get that

  • Doesn't work.

    it's dead now :( on my app

  • Was coming up in my app for $2.45 small, $2.95 medium or $3.40 for Large. Only problem was it was saying only available between 00:00 - 04:00, which would at lunch time yesterday was no good as when I was in store it just come up saying sold out for that restaurant.
    In the end I went with the $5 Big Mac Golden Meal (medium) so can't complain as that was cheaper than a Big Mac on its own.
    It still comes up on my app, and saying available between 00:00 - 04:00 but I'm not going out to get one now to see if it works

    • Add the 3 for $3 cheeseburger meal and swap the fries for a salad and the drink for a 600ml bottle of water. Great deal for $8

  • I tired yesterday afternoon for me. But it didn't work… Out of Stock error.

    Shame on Macca's for trying to stop us from getting cheap food out of them!

    • I was asked to pay for a cup of water in Melbourne last week. A Sydney store did the same thing.

      I usually get water for free because I don't drink soft drink.

      Their Loose Change Menu is designed to draw people to their stores initially so they buy other things.

      • What really pushes my buttons is When swapping out a drink for $1 dollar Frozen drink, will cost more than buying the meal itself and an extra Frozen drink!!
        End up leaving a full drink on the table
        They're not trained to use logic, don't blame them either. Just frustrating tho. THE SYSTEMS SHOULD AUTOMATICALLY APPLY ANY VALID DEAL. My 2 cents..

  • Just to confirm this deal still works.

    Bought a small meal from Maccas Manuka ACT at lunch for $2.65.
    Cop next to me bought the same burger, small chips and coffee for $9.50.

      Did they arrest you when they found out how much you paid? 😊

      • Bet he would have if he could.
        Anyway, don't cops get free food anymore when on duty?

        • You've already answered your question above!

  • Went to Keysborough and Springvale VIC and they said they don't do Chicken n Cheese in meals. He punched it through and it came up as 2.50

    • RE: Keysy

      The standalone or the food-court?

      • Standalone next to Johnny Boy's

  • +1

    Won't work in the app but just ask for the meal through the drive through. Only medium and large. Also I changed the drink to a chocolate milk and it made it 5 cents cheaper lol

  • Doesn't work at Sunnybank Hills McDonald's. 'Out of stock'. Wondering if anyone has luck there?

  • Chicken n cheese is a loose change menu item, can't bought in a meal

    • Are you sure?
      Yes, so ordering this meal several times has not been good for my wasteline but it is working for some.

      • +1

        Tried the app and in store. The app deletes it off the order when confirming, says not available.
        Can't do it in store either, its not in the till.
        I was keen, but not forthcoming

        • On the plus side - your arteries will thank you

  • The McDonald’s in St Leonards, NSW does the Chicken & Cheese in a Medium meal for $3.10, got it today :)

    It’s nicer and better value than the 3 for $3 deal!

    • I agree. The burger is much nicer.
      Worked at Fyshwick, ACT for lunch today $2.65.

  • Worked for me 10pm at McDonald's Kingsford (NSW).
    $3.00 after I showed the cashier that it was out of stock on app.

    • Mine just shows the burger itself for $3

  • I think the glitch has been fixed now. Cannot order chicken cheese in a meal anymore on the app even after the hack.

    • +1

      Worked for me tonight.
      Please don't judge me for ordering this meal many times.

  • Berwick have shut this hack down

  • Not working at minto maccas anymore

  • Doesn't work

  • The new update for the Mymaccas app says there might be a few new surprises , does anyone know what it is? Lol I was hoping for free 10 nuggets or something :)

  • Still works as of last night for me.

  • Got this last night and night before at Chermside QLD. Went through the drive through, asked for a medium Chicken and Cheese burger meal, got put through no questions asked. $3.35 for the meal.

    • My local simply refused to even check, saying chicken n chese doesn't come in a meal

      • It looks like it's a bit of a gamble, as others have mentioned.

        Anyhow I tried again just now but no luck this time. The attendant put through my meal for $3.35, but there was a mistake with the payment (I paid for someone else's order) so the girl went to get her supervisor . The supervisor noticed the $3.35 price on my order, said it was wrong and went to charge me the correct price of $8.xx. It looks like it may be the end of this deal at Chermside at least, sadly. Was good while it lasted, thanks OP.

  • Another Vic location $3.05 (quoted price) or maybe $3.20 (guessing from the total I paid) after changing fried to salad (bit of a disaster!) and getting orange juice from concentrate.

    I much prefer a regular burger to these ones, but kids like them and it makes a change from regular burgers with the bonus that they sometimes come in cheaper.

    Shoddy food, but great value.

  • Have they fixed up the favourites glitch? Still no option for adding it to a meal for me

    • Correct. Good Luck finding a Store that will let you add it into a Meal.

  • No longer working in any of Adelaide rundle area locations.

    Successfully ordered 2 medium meals for $2.95 each. In-store kiosk wouldn't do it so I went counter.
    I asked a younger staff member if I could get the chicken and cheese burger in a meal, they said "yeah sure" or "yeah of course".
    Chose medium size with Sprite and when it showed up for $2.95 I asked them to double the order :>
    Coastal Queensland out of the city. On sunday 28/05/2017
