$8 for 18 nuggets and 2 large fries. Using mathematics and $10 for 24 nuggets as a base the 18 nuggets is worth $7.50 as 18 is 25% less than 24. Therefore you are buying 2 large fries for an extra 50c which works out to be 25c per large fries.
Generic code: 9500
You get roughly 90 fries in a large fries so the calculation would mean each fries is worth 0.28c
Im counting them tomorrow
We can always count on you!
you better not count those tiny little fry nubs as whole fries
@AustriaBargain: How long is a standard fry? We'll need to measure and average to create a standard, then count based on said standard
@[Deactivated]: it should be done by weight not size of the packet to remove variation based on how generous the maccas team member feels at filling that packet …..
@garage sale: Weight by surface area ratio. OP can realistically weigh and immerse each fry in a non-Newtonian fluid to measure displacement.
How many sauces, if it's one less that should also be added to the methematics
The value is consuming a sauce dipped nugget as a whole (you dont drink the sauce so you not getting any utilities from the extra sauce without the nuggets).
The 3 sauces you get is enough for the 18 nuggets therefore the extra sauce you miss out on is a sunk cost.
Saunk cost you could say.. or dunked sauce cost
Interestingly enough to me sauces are of great value, I love the spicy mayo type sauces from kfc and mcdonalds. Havent been able to find an equivalent in sauce bottles from grocery stores yet, Keen if anyone knows of one.I actually value the sauces to the point that i usually try to be a bit measly with them and make them last longer so i can use them later on with another food item.
I would love it if KFC sold their pepper/twister mayo like McDonald's sell their big Mac sauce
Where did you learn to do meth?
That moment the Pies supporter had to search for that 😉
Or was it secretly in your favourites jv?
EPIC
18 McNuggets Plus 2x Large Fries for $8
Is it literally just the 2 Large Fries, or 2 packets of Large Fries?
2x, where x can be a number between 0-9.
so like 6.9?
I love how jv is surprised how the world works.
Or frustrated. Shucks.
Neither it is 2 large packets of fries.
Gotta get those internet points.
Heaven forbid some effort went into finding deals. Though the post deleted due to trolling was 😂 I wonder how many maccas posts in a row it takes to be trolling again
Only one way to find out
He’ll be back with the next one at midnight

Thanks for the reminder re the omission. The quantity of posts is no guarantee for the quality of posts.
There is a hide option.

My new fave video for lowballers on gumtree 😂.
I will be using this a lot on ozbargain :)
Thanks Vinodra you saved me finding my own one haha
new bogey word for op lol
methematics.. doing maths while on meth
Thanks Captain Obvious.
Thought this was urban dictionary for a second
why do i get a feeling people don’t care if the chips they eat are crunchy or soggy, cold or hot, just as long as they are cheap …..in which case it’s cheaper to make crap chips at home
Something about maccas chips that make em taste good even when they go cold better than home cooked chips.. although I should really deep fry some shoe string fries before I comment anymore.
I usually just fan force with some grills in the oven my fries and they don't turn out as good obviously as deep fried in a dedicated deep fryer store maccas/takeaway/restaurant/chicken shop fries.
From Woolworths you can get Chicken Nuggets anywhere from $6.20/kg to $18.42/kg I would probably aim for the $10.00/kg just so I feel like I am getting something that is "premium" but still not paying ridiculous amounts and also most things are around $10/kg no matter what product category you search for I find $10/kg is a good number sometimes but depends on the day really if you wanna gamble some other "meat" in your nugget or whatnot but yeah those are the facts and figures.
From Coles you can get Chicken Nuggets anywhere from $5.80/kg to $15.38/kg for some actually labelled chicken nuggets or $22.50/kg for some Chicken-Free Nuggets which ironically "May Contain EGG" which I think kind of defeats the purpose and point but at least it ain't got no "Chicken" there are also other Chicken derivatives like tenders, schnitzels, kievs, balls, pops, wedges, chicken wing nibbles, dino snacks, fingers, strips, crackles and something called a goujon.. yeah there is a lot of chicken options there but as far as chicken nuggets goes it is $5.80/kg to $15.38/kg and everything in between.
There is a $29.17/kg Frozen Chicken Party Bucket but I felt like it was more a mish mash of other chicken selections so I did not include it in the main $/kg comparisons.
No idea what Aldi, IGA, SUPA IGA, Foodworks and whatever other groceries and butchers etc offer but yeah that is all I could find from the two main ones that maybe most people would use.
If you have any other databases or websites I can use to post a nice quick yet detailed summary report message me some links or info otherwise just reply to this comment with your findings on chicken nuggets and their lowest and highest $/kg you can officially show or have seen out in the wild ;)
Hope this helps somebody otherwise there is no point in me doing it hehe lol :)
I like chicken nuggets they are ok.. nice quick meal but couldn't eat them forever for life.
The best option is stocking up on premium when they're half price.
As for the may contain eggs in the chicken-free nuggets, it doesn't much matter to most vegans, it just means it's processed on the same equipment as something with egg in it, it doesn't increase the demand for animal products and you wouldn't be able to taste it. Vegetarians definitely wouldn't care. People with severe allergies may need to be careful though.
There's also the option to make your own nuggets, which could save $$ and increase quality, but significantly reduce the convenience of the meal.
Imagine the constructive things you could have done than lecture a cheaper way that Macca’s lazy a$$es would never follow lol .
All about convenience that some will never understand !
So I have to cook them?
$8 for 18 nuggets and 2 large fries. Using methematics and $10 for 24 nuggets as a base the 18 nuggets is worth $7.50 as 18 is 25% less than 24. Therefore you are buying 2 large fries for an extra 50c which works out to be 25c per large fries.
$8 for 18 nuggets and 2 large fries. Using methematics and $3.30 for large fries as a base the 2 large fries is worth $6.60 as 2 is 100% more than 1. Therefore you are buying 18 nuggets for an extra $1.40 which works out to be 7.777c per nugget.
If I'm buying maccas large fries at $3.30, I'm definitely doing meth. They're awful. That price gets me a cup of actual hot chips.
You had me at 18 + 2 …
OP inventing new buzzwords like methematics and cheeseburgars will be the stuff of ozbargain legend
Definition of methematics:
The way in which a meth a addict try's to buy product with cash money while they owe money or deliberately attempts to confuse the seller by rapidly talking/throwing numbers around in a frantic manner hoping to benefit them selfs by either shorting the seller money or by receiving extra product.
Remind me to post individual deal on 22 Nov
Using methematics
Should've gone to SpecSavers

It currently can be deleted however after it receives 100 up votes it can’t be deleted due to the OzBargain guidelines on duplicates.
But they deleted 2 duplicates this morning within an hour of posting but this one has been posted longer and reported numerous times with no action. If true about 100 or more, this has yet to achieve that.
@cute as duck: Agreed it is unfair after (8 at the moment) duplicate reports have been ignored and as it was posted 9+ hours ago
@FaceDown: Not ignored, guidelines
The item is not in the title of the original deal and the duplicate deal is active or will be active on the day it is posted
@cute as duck: I think it won't be considered as a duplicate as this deal wasn't in the title of the original deal.
Love the people who keep sooking about these deals being posted 🤣
Keep it up, there are plenty of us who appreciate the daily reminder 🙂
Don't worry the annoying app has a habit of reminding multiple times .
I hope Macca's give you a Big Mac or better for being their promoter/servant BA !
BTW make sure your up at Midnight next deal someone might beat you to the punch lol .
Sheet BA you might be able to set em up as scheduled upcoming deals and really beat em :)
He tried that, mods removed them as they can't be posted ahead of time lmao
So he posts at midnight
This dude is ridiculous
@Wilder94: Each to their own, if he wants to do it at midnight then yeah, let him, whatever.
I enjoy the daily reminders. Everyone contributes to this website in some way or another.
As someone approaching gold fish memory does anyone have cod mw pc for sale

how many sauces are included?
3
Is it 50 cents per sauce on top of the 3 included in the meal
3grams?
Sorry maccaz but that's a bad deal
This is a bad post since its a dupe, but a good deal.
With much better offers on this mnth even driving past Macca's on route I didn't waste my time with this one .
Sure its ok value but below par on most of the offers this mnth .
I need a recovery break from the real decent ones like the 1/4 pounder attack yesterday :)
Some of these comments are the reason why we can't have nice things
25c per large fries but how many cents is that per fry?
