"For the price, there are better ways for McDonald's chicken nugget fans to secure their go-to snack: Skip the a la carte ordering. For a better price-per-nugget value, we suggest downloading the McDonald's app, which regularly offers coupons for a 20-piece McNuggets for $5.99, or a "Buy a 10-piece, get a 10-piece free" offer. As our review notes, the app also "frequently features rotating deals like $1 large fries, 99-cent burgers and chicken sandwiches, or BOGO nugget offers that bring the price down to something budget-friendly," all of which help reduce the price per nugget. These promotions can be especially beneficial for nugget fans who make McDonald's runs on a fairly frequent basis."
"As we mentioned in our review, "The average price is now $5.79 for 10 nuggets, which is nearly 58 cents per nugget, and that's before adding fries, a drink, or extra dipping sauces. By comparison, Burger King offers 10 nuggets for around $2.99.""
"The once-value-centric dining concept has caught major customer criticism as menu prices creep higher and higher. One Reddit thread (with 1.2K upvotes) asks, "When did McDonalds become so overpriced?" Another post echoes Mickey D's growing pricing issue, with the top comment lamenting, "McDonalds at this point is a scam even my drunken me doesn't want to visit anymore,""
McDonald's menu prices have risen sharply, with a 10-piece Chicken McNuggets averaging about $5.79, nearly 58 cents per nugget, and combo meals reaching over $20. Competitors like Burger King offer lower-priced 10-piece nuggets for around $2.99. Viral posts and customer complaints on social platforms highlight perceived overpricing, including an $18 Big Mac combo. Better value appears through app-exclusive coupons and promotions, such as 20-piece McNuggets for $5.99, buy-one-get-one nugget offers, $1 large fries, and 99-cent sandwiches, which significantly reduce the per-nugget cost for frequent customers.
