This deal still works and will even work for Hot & Spicy pieces that were just added to the KFC menu Australia wide for a limited time.

Update: Hot & Spicy (Australia wide) is now over. Hack still works for 4 pieces or original recipe or 5 original tenders with 2 dipping sauces.

Credit to drezy for the following:

  1. Open KFC App, press Order Now and choose your store.
  2. Select Colonel's Offers
  3. Add a Cheap as Chips Meal Deal to cart
  4. Press cart button at top right corner and it should show "You May Also Like" where you can now choose various ADD ONs, in this case we want to select "4 Pieces Original Recipe ADD ON and/or the 5 Tenders ADD ON", then add it to order.
  5. Once back in the cart, press the 3 dots menu on the Cheap as Chips to remove it. You should now be left with the ADD ONs in cart.
  6. Checkout, pick up and enjoy!

    Also, even though this is technically a hack, KFC must be happy with it (increased sales) as it's been available to exploit for ages and has never been closed.

      I think over the counter you need to buy the combo and then add it on.

    • brandogs on 17/05/2022 - 12:56
      +3

      It's not possible in person as you have to order a full meal to then be offered the "ADD ON" which then you cant just delete the first meal and be left with the discounted "ADD ONs"

      • sub102 on 17/05/2022 - 13:50

        Well I've ordered it a few times over the counter without any problems just ask for the $6.95 4 piece by pointing at the add on. May be I've got lucky then

      • oshkoshjosh4 on 17/05/2022 - 18:50

        It's an ''add on" in the same way "sides" are meant to be ordered beside a main. It's a bit retarded ordering a bunch of sides without a main but no one is going to stop you.

        If they wanted to stop people, they very easily could.

    anybody figure out how to get a receipt when ordering online? I want to get the free survey chips and drink.

    • brandogs on 17/05/2022 - 12:49

      Just ask for a receipt at the counter or drive through pay window?

    • MrPariah on 17/05/2022 - 13:08
      +1

      Don't need receipt, just need store number (which you can call and ask for store number) and the order number + time (order history in app)

      Those are the only requirements the online survey asks for

      Hope this helped

      • Faulty P xel on 17/05/2022 - 14:15

        And you'll have no paper receipt to hand over, so a huge number of stores will say no prize.

          Oh my bad, I've yet to be asked to handover the receipt only ever to see the 6 or so numbers spit out at the end of the survey. Which a photo on my phone seems to suffice must be treated differently depending on which KFC you go to my apologies!

            @MrPariah: Interesting. I need to leave my area more, lol. Staff at the KFC nearby have one of those ancient receipt holders… a weighted base with a metal spike they stab paper receipts down onto. I guess someone enters the codes later.

    • Faulty P xel on 17/05/2022 - 14:22
      +2

      brandogs is correct. I just ask for a receipt at the pickup window. Usually they can't find it though. So I just say "Can I have the receipt… or anyone's receipt… it's just for the survey" and I'm always given one.

    • Candeal on 17/05/2022 - 22:53

      Problem is even if you have a receipt, it won't be any good for online orders the next time

      • Faulty P xel on 25/05/2022 - 18:01

        Problem is even if you have a receipt, it won't be any good for online orders the next time

        Was this in reply to me? If yes you still get the free can of drink and regular chips with an online order. Place the online order. Once at the speaker they ask what you want. You quote the online order number. They confirm your name. Then they tell you to "Drive through to window 1, window 2, etc. Instead of driving off you say, "I also have the free chip & drink survey receipt." They say ok, add it to the order, and again tell you to drive to window 1/2/etc.

        • Candeal on 25/05/2022 - 20:32

          Wasn't for you but I like your reply, so that means it should work at the counter too as its the same thing as Drive thru no?

          • Faulty P xel on 25/05/2022 - 23:14

            @Candeal: Yeeesss… with the understanding I tend to get more problems at the counter. I've always assumed it's because when there's any kind of discussion, any staff who aren't busy tend to gather around and chime in their 2 cents. That's when the person who's more convinced they're right wins.

            We shouldn't have to fight for a receipt or things as advertised, but it still happens. A couple of weeks ago I had this experience with a new kid:

            KFC: "Have a nice night."
            Me: "Thanks. Oh is the receipt in there?"
            KFC : "You can't get a receipt with online orders it goes to your email."
            Me: "Yeah I know about the email one but Head Office told me a receipt at point of sale is required if needed like for tax purposes… or to do the survey."
            KFC: "Err… Sorry I can't find yours and don't know how to get it up on the register…"
            Me: "Yeah anyone's receipt will do, even out of the bin, I'm easy."
            KFC: "You just want it for the survey or something, yeah?"
            Me: "Yeah."
            KFC: "Ok here's one."

            They hear "KFC Head Office" and must think either, "Oh he must be right after all - here's a receipt" or, "Meh I'm not paid enough - here's a receipt now nick off." I don't really care which it is, lol.

            I know they can probably hear each other over the intercom, but maybe I get less problems at the drive thru because they're "alone"!? Also most times I've been inside there hasn't been a need to ask because there are abandoned receipts on the counter. So I just grab a couple in case they don't give me mine to avoid "discussions."

    Nice! Just try this but add 2 x 4 pieces. Then deleted the Cheap As Chips. Proceed to check out and got -$6 discount so total $7.90 for 8x pieces of hot & spicy 😄

    • brandogs on 17/05/2022 - 12:53

      Check your emails, you were likely targeted and received a discount to lure you back to the KFC app.

      Similar to the one I got in the past which was $5 off $10 spend

      U can't add 2 x 4 pieces, once you add the 1st 4 pieces, that option gets taken away.

    • brandogs on 17/05/2022 - 13:23

      Only problem is you have to order a minimum of 3x.

      So in order to save money per piece you'd have to order at least 21 pieces of chicken (2x 6 piece and 1x 9 piece)

    Just voicing out similar frustration that H&S isnt available all year long despite the original itself tasting, well, too salty and nowhere near as crunchy as the H&S.

    I remember reaching out to KFC facebook page or twitter and requesting for it to be made available all year long and they said to reach out to the individual franchisee as some stores are owned by Yum! brands and others by Collins Foods?

    I think the stores owned by Collins Foods are the ones that usually had H&S running all year long.

    This has been discussed here apparently.
