McDonald’s fans can get double the points on breakfast orders – but you’ll need to be quick
MCDONALD’S breakfast fans can get double the points on their orders, but they’ll need to be quick.
The fast food giant is offering the chance for customers to get double points on all breakfast orders.
McDonald’s fans can earn points on all breakfasts served from March 6 up until March 12.
Breakfast runs up until 11am every morning – after that and points won’t be doubled.
Shoppers will need to have the McDonald’s Rewards app in order to claim.
They’ll also need to place their order via the app, for collection or delivery, to earn the points.
If you order at the till, or another way, you won’t get them.
How do I use the app?
The app will allow you to browse the latest menu available at McDonald’s.
It works anywhere you have internet, so you can look up what’s on offer while you’re out and about, or at home.
In the mornings, you’ll have access to the breakfast menu options until 11am, when breakfast finishes and lunch begins.
The first thing you’ll have to do is pick your closest or local McDonald’s.
If you’re visiting somewhere new make sure the correct restaurant is selected as the app will autofill your location when it’s opened.
After this, you’ll be able to look at menu items and add them to your basket.
Once you’ve completed this, you can confirm your order and head to the restaurant.
When you’ve arrived, confirm this on the app and select the collection method.
You can set up a payment method in the app which can be saved and used every time too.
You won’t be charged until you’ve arrived at the restaurant and selected a collection method.
The only problem with the app is you can’t select cash as a payment method, meaning you’ll have to go in as normal if you need to pay this way.
You can also select your favourite items with the star button next to each product, making it easier and quicker to reorder your favourite meals.
Plus the app allows you to customise orders just like when you normally reel off all the things you do and don’t want in your burger or meal to the staff member at the tills and drive-thru.
How can I save on my McDonald’s order?
If you’re a massive Maccie’s fan and looking for ways to slash your bill next time, we’ve got some tips.
You should choose your branch carefully, as prices can vary across restaurants.
Research carried out by The Sun found a Big Mac meal can be up to 30p cheaper at restaurants that are just two miles apart.
Plus, if you have the My McDonald’s app, you can bag freebies and discounts on your birthday.
You might even get a free coffee on the big day too.
For fans living in London, make sure you keep hold of your bus tickets as sometimes they come with McDonald’s vouchers printed on the back.
