I got the App when they had a Deal every time the Angels hit a Home Run at a home Game. It was an Artisan Sandwich FREE with any purchase.
I walked out of there with a FREE Sandwich worth about five bucks and all I had to buy was a $1 Large Coke. McDonalds ended up changing the Deal and requiring a purchase of a Medium Fry to get the Free Sandwich.
They wised up when it seemed the Angels were getting a Home Run every time they played a home Game. LOL
They seem to have a lot of great Deals on the App.
I was driving a lot for work and it made grabbing a bite convenient and cheap while I was on the road.
No complaints from me as long as I’m not paying retail. Some of the Menu prices they charge for their Large Sandwiches are ridiculous. I can get a Double Double at In and Out Burger or less than the regular price of a Big Mac.
No comparison in taste and quality, but at the right price and being everywhere, McDonalds has their niche.
Yeah, I agree with most of your sentiment regarding good deals, whether they originate with the app, paper coupons, or a friendly fry worker who always scoops me a large instead of medium (it happens). It seems the heyday for the app was back in the early fall, when MCD was raising cash with those two-for-one sandwich deals. Yeah, everyone liked the app then. But that disappeared and now it is so full of mobile order, Uber delivery, and seasonal glitter you can’t even find the deals (which are not all that great anyway in my locality). Plus uses almost 100MB on my low and phone, which hurts.
