What's on the Menu? Each item on the menu is inspired by a Christmas classic, so whether your favorite Christmas movie is Die Hard or Frosty the Snowman, McDonald's has just the treat to put you in the holiday spirit.
The Griswolds Double Cheeseburger (Dec. 14)
The Abominable Snow Monster Big Mac (Dec. 15)
The Grinch Egg McMuffin (Dec. 16)
The John McClane McDouble (Dec. 17)
The Rudolph World Famous Fries (Dec. 18)
The Gizmo Chicken McNuggets (Dec. 19)
The Buddy the Elf Hotcakes (Dec. 20)
The Scrooge Hot or Iced Coffee (Dec. 21)
The Frosty the Snowman McFlurry (Dec. 22)
The Frank Constanza and the Rest of Us Bakery Treat (Dec. 23)
The Santa Clause Chocolate Chip Cookies (Dec. 24)
What's the Catch? Since these Christmas freebies must be redeemed through the app, technically there is a minimum purchase order of $1. However, on Christmas Eve, the last day of the promotion, the dollar minimum will be waived entirely. Still sounds too good to be true? According to the official statement released by McDonald's, "After a year like 2020, we could all use some extra cheer this season." So enjoy your holiday treats on the house, and just try to "McCafé It Forward," McDonald's says.

BREAKING: McDonald’s confirms DIE HARD as a Christmas movie.
I NEVER eat at Mc Donalds. However, The Griswolds and The Abominable Snow Monster aren’t my favorites. But those are the only 2 things I’d get. Didn’t see the Filet O Fish which I love.
Bread and circuses
Wendy’s fish sand is great
Why can’t Ruth’s Chris Steak House do this?
I really dislike the word “free” when used as a sales gimmick.
Nothing is free if you have to pay or do something to get whatever it is that is mis-advertized as free.
My irritation started a few decades back when a catsup bottle said “1/3 Free”. I wanted to open each container, carefully pour out 1/3rd into my own container and leave the store. But I knew better.
My biggest gripe is Free TV on the streaming services. It’s not free if you have to watch some woke advertising.
Hmm. There’s a Wendys across from my office. I’ll try it. Thanks!
Well, it’s not Christmas until Hans Gruber falls off the Nakatomi tower.
“I NEVER eat at Mc Donalds.”
Me too, the food there is PURE GARBAGE!
TANSTAAFL!
Not only do they acknowledge ‘Die Hard’ as a Christmas movie, they also acknowledge ‘Festivus...for the rest of us’ as legit (Dec. 23rd).
Somewhere, Jerry Seinfeld is smiling.
No additional purchase on Christmas Eve for a cookie. I guess good marketing. I missed the two days I’d be interested in since I’m just finding out about it today. Oh well.
My office window used to look across the street at Baskin and Robbins Ice Cream.
Once a year they offered a free scoop of ice cream. The line was so long, it must have taken an hour to be served. Ludicrous but people are indeed enamored with free stuff.
I’m the type that will pay to NOT stand in line.
When robots make the burgers and send them up for wrap, only then will I eat there again.
McDonalds wasn’t even food for a long while. They have recently gone to real ingredients, and so the price went up. Was a bit shocked a couple years ago to pay $11 in Idaho for a Big Mac, Fries and a Vanilla Shake.
What? No Festivus french toast?
“Didn’t see the Filet O Fish which I love.”
You said you never eat at McDonalds ....
The Romans were laughable pikers compared to our versions of bread and circuses in a lot of ways. We did stuff they could only dream about, like actually making the poor the most likely to be obese. And the most passively entertained and least used to hard physical labor of any poor people in history. They don’t even have to scramble after the bread or get themselves to the arena.
Freegards
WHAT?
No McRib? OUTRAGEOUS!
