    Bugger, really liked the McFeast meal for 5 bucks. The double beef n bacon is just a grease bomb, terrible!

    • +9

      Mmmmmm grease bomb……

      • Sex bomb and grease bomb both sound great. Let's combine them into a greasy sex bomb and it'll be heaven.

        • +4

          I am just about the burgers….see a therapist tiger!!

        • lol fyi some greases break condoms….

    • i hated the raw onions in the mcfeast

      • +5

        I always remove them

    • +12

      “ double beef n bacon is just a grease bomb, terrible! ” In greta thunberg voice: How Dare You

    • +10

      Agreed. McFeast > Double Beef n Bacon

    • Minus lettuce, tomato, ketchup and mcchicken sauce (and sometimes minus salts & pepper) great burger :-)

      • mcchicken sauce ?? you mean mayo?

        • Interestingly the app refers to it as mcchicken sauce. So dunno. Near enough. Whatever it is, the point is you remove it.

  • Do you need the app for this?

  • +1

    Can I change it to a sm quarter pounder meal like the mcfeast

    • You could do that?

      • You could turn it into a McChicken as well if you subtracted the right ingredients.

    • That’s what i did

      • How do you do it?

        • Get the $5 McFeast small deal (think it’s finished). Minus lettuce, minus tomato, minus mcchicken sauce and voila, a quarter pounder

          • @Vote for Pedro: There’s an extra slice of cheese on the 1/4 pounder

            • +1

              @diazepam: Yep. Happy to forgo that one slice of cheese. Or, you can add it for 60c. Still gives you a quarter pounder small meal for $5.60.

  • +2

    Damn that Aussie Angus burger was delicious, should keep it on permanently

    • +1

      My local Maccas likes to burn the burgers black esp. the Angus

  • +4

    Damn gonna miss the McFeast

  • Anyone ever tried this "el maco"? Looks interesting…and mozzarella sticks take me way back to my childhood in USA. They were my fave and suddenly discontinued

    • Former crew member here. Beef El Maco was around in 2006 for a short period, from what I remember there was a definite salsa taste but nothing too strong so I'm interested to see what it's like today. Also pretty sure the 2006 incarnation was as big as a Quarter Pounder whereas this is smaller.

      • so I'm interested to see what it's like today.

        You mean tomorrow………………………..? ;)

      • I remember getting it for lunch in its previous incarnation somewhere around '96

    • I haven't traveled through time to tell you what this unreleased burger tastes like.

      • +1

        Name don't check.

        • +1

          You are thinking of my brother timeflight.

          We regularly see each other in the space-time continuum.

    • +4

      I remember the El Maco's from over 25 years ago when I worked at Maccas. They were the best burgers I'd ever had, and ate heaps of them when we 'accidentally' made too many of them near the end of each nightshift. Hope they are still the same…

      • Was big mac bigger 25 years ago?

        • +1

          I'm pretty sure Big Mac's are still the same size, but in SA (& WA too I believe) the buns for a Quarter Pounder, McFeast, & McChicken used to be nearly as big as a Whopper.

      • I thought Maccas only ever made burgers after they were ordered? It's HJ's that make in advance during peak, hence the times that get marked on the packet on what time to throw out.

        • They all premade them about 15 years ago, then they shifted to making them at order time. If you got near the end of the 15 min window melty cheese goodness.

        • this fancy 'cook-to-order' business has only been around for a few years.. before everyone premade burgers..

          the trick to get a fresh one was to simply ask for no ketchup or something and they had to make a new one, then you just added ketchup anyway

    • yeah remember it being a nice taste. You have to be into sour cream on a burger though…

  • +5

    Hi Rep, please tell CEO Ronald to stick with McFeast and Chicken McFeast.

    Double beef n bacon is horrible!

    • +3

      chicken mcfeast is the the real terrible one.. doesn't even go together

    • +1

      He hasn't been CEO since the late 90s. The executive board made him step down and replaced him with a conservative figure so that shareholders would accept the new direction they were taking at the time more seriously. He entered retirement and basically vanished from the public eye.

      He died peacefully in his sleep in late-2016 and was honoured with a 21 gun salute.

      • +1

        Oh wow! Source? What's he look like then

        • +2

          Sorry, but I'm not at liberty to divulge my references. It's a special source.

          I assume he would be pretty decomposed after 3 years but admittedly I haven't seen the body and I don't want to twist my assumptions into facts. If you'd like to perform your own investigation, he was reportedly buried at the old McDonald's farm, where his father Ronald McDonald Snr successfully raised chickens, pigs and an assortment of other animals.

  • +9

    Damn, why can’t they just leave the $5 McFeast alone instead of continuously removing it all the time. Oh well, it’s your loss Maccas.

    • It also means my weight loss.

      • True, unless you go across the road to KFC instead

        • +1

          McFeast equivalent is at CEO Jacks, so Imma go derr.
          Colonel can wait.

  • +4

    mcfeast is way better

  • Are they still doing the onion rings burger?

  • +1

    damn, i liked the aussie burger.

  • +4

    Ugh. My local Maccas marks the 'Small Meal' option for the $5 promo item as unavailable during these promotions so it can't be ordered through the app. They also don't honour it in store. Tightwads.

    I will still be getting copious El Macos with shaker fries.

    They also don't stock sweet mustard sauce for the nuggets. I despise them.

    • +5

      I’d move.

      • +1

        This is the only logical response, move house to the next suburb over.

        • +1

          Even though the next nearest Maccas is 400km away, I'm seriously considering it.

  • Best Deal today is 5 dolla big Mac meal with extra chez burger
    2 burger chip drink 5 dolla…. That's decent

  • +2

    rip $7.95 double qtr pounder meal.

  • +1

    Is this on now or maybe in selective stores I just ordered it enjoyed it and seen my card has been charged $9 for it. Was $9 the old price of the meal. Damn really wish I took that receipt now.

    • -1

      It’s happening now and is nationwide. Possible that your store hasn’t updated their pricing system :(

      • +2

        This is not happening in QLD as far as I can tell, have tried a half dozen stores over 3 days, all are > $9.30 - $9.50 for the small meal.

    • +1

      As a rule, always get a receipt for everything!

      • +1 that’s a valuable lesson

  • +1

    Can anyone else find this in the app? I can only find medium and large size.

    • +1

      We can only find Medium and Large on our App's…. Conveniently missing :(

      • They did the same with one off my shitty maccas that's always pricier for the normal meals. I take it as it's not one of the participants.

    • I have it on my app, but it's not $5… :S

    • yes i found it on my app, on the drop down list u choose small meal, but noticed it was missing from the kiosk when i tried to order it from there in store. So effectively if its in the app you can you order it after 5pm but probably not after midnight.

  • Got charged way more than $5

  • +4

    QLD, doesn't work on app.

    • +1

      Ditto…

      • +1

        Same!

  • +6

    This is not a thing in QLD, 4:55pm and it's $9.50. Checked the last two days as well. McFeast deal has been removed as well.

    • Confirmed this isn't a thing in the NT either, but should be in most stores in other states.

    • +1

      So QLD has been shafted out of any sort of small meal deal…….

  • Our local Maccas is crap! BTW the beef and bacon $5 meal ended yesterday

    • -2

      No it didn't…

  • Where the (profanity) is this located on the app would be nice if that was mentioned only thing i can see is the double bacon n beef standard price, also my local maccas in sydney dont serve bacon so how is this even available.

    • They don’t serve bacon? Is it because there busy bakin’ doughnuts?

      • I believe its a halal joint, in Auburn NSW. At least what i was told is they don't serve bacon.

    • my local maccas in sydney dont serve bacon

      Say what now?

  • My store said it was $5.59… NO DEAL.

  • +2

    $5.95 at my local McDonald's. Went through to kiosk, the app, then staff. All the same price $5.95. What a joke, didn't order. Walked out.

    • So is this deal now expired or is it a price error?

      • Not too sure.
