    Think of it as the healthier, added veg option:D

    Or if you want the healthy option you can order the big mac without the bun and you get it in the box to eat with a fork, my friend who is in weight watchers does this all the time. Think you have to ask for the fork:D

    Who said I expected them to be on 24/7 (shrugs shoulders) was merely advising peeps to use the report function

    Deal worked fine at Nutgrove drive thru. They didn’t scan it but checked to make sure it was activated.

    when it's activated and used is that it gone then or does another deal pop up in its place on the app?

    for a good few months now you can also get lettuce and mayo on eurosaver burgers, the double cheese anyway. I think a slice of tomato is 20cent, maybe 30cent.

    you can get extra mustard, ketchup too. It really does make it a more substantial looking burger. Like a "salad burger" in a chipper but getting the upgrade for free.

    Always thought it strange that the quarter pounders do not come with lettuce as standard.

    9 Chicken McNuggets for €2 now on the app :)

    I wish Limerick was included


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,382 ✭✭✭✭rubadub


    The double cheeseburger is now €2.20 on the eurosaver, so the triple one at €2.90 seems like better value.

    How does it work on machines in doors for takeaway?

    cheers OP.

    Also another ongoing McDonalds offer is on your receipt, you've to do a 3 minute survey and that gives you a code for a Big Mac and fries for 4.50. Write the code on the receipt and redeem at the counter. You can keep doing this over and over again if you want as every receipt has the offer on it

    Didn’t this used to be €3.90

    They have a barcode reader, a QR pops up when you redeem the voucher. Scan the code and it will automatically be added to your order.

    Would also add that for offers like medium meal and kids meal for €8, scan the coupon before you start, it then prompts you to pick items on the offer. If you add say a Big Mac med meal plus nugget happy meal, then scan the voucher, it won't simply apply it to those items, you will need to enter it all in again, then delete the items you added before scanning etc.

    it was. I remember as I still thought 2 double cheeseburgers was a better buy (they also increased in price).

    A big mac on its own seems to be 4.50, not sure if that has gone up too.

    https://www.just-eat.ie/restaurants-mcdonalds-blackrock-dublin/menu

    6 nuggets is 2.50, 9 is usually 5.10! while 20 is 6.50

    They introduced the new triple cheeseburger for 2.90 at the same time that they increased the price of a double from 2 to 2.20. In fairness that double cheeseburger was introduced in back in the recession in 2010 so it had a decade long run without a price increase.

    They're also now charging extra if you want to add mayonaisse to it whereas it used to be free a few weeks ago. Lettuce is still free to add to it though. In the UK you can add both lettuce and Big Mac sauce to your double cheeseburger for free, effectively creating yourself a small Big Mac for just £1.59

    take a screenshot of the QR code and reuse as much as you want (i think there is a 30 day limit), also you can get multiple bigmacs with the same code on the same order.


  • Registered Users Posts: 364 ✭✭Savage_Henry


    Also if anyone has a recent QR code - please PM it to me :D

    Interesting. Have you tried this? Asking only as I seem to remember the app double checking you were ready to use the offer, something like within 10 mins. But I guess all that happens is the offer deletes in the app after 10 mins but still can be used at the restaurant.

    Might try a few €1 coffees ....


  • Registered Users Posts: 364 ✭✭Savage_Henry


    yes i have tried this
