McDonald’s Is Officially Launching a $5 Meal Deal with 4 Menu Items Included
The $5 meal gets you a McDouble or McChicken sandwich, fries, chicken McNuggets and a drink
McDonald’s is now offering customers a bundled meal for just $5.
After months of rumors, the fast food chain will officially roll out the McDonald's Meal Deal on June 25 at restaurants nationwide, PEOPLE confirms. The $5 meal includes the customer’s choice of a McDouble or McChicken sandwich with small fries, four-piece chicken McNuggets and a soft drink.
The president of McDonald’s USA, Joe Erlinger, said that the chain heard "fans loud and clear — they’re looking for even more great value from us, and this summer that’s exactly what they’ll get,”
Earlier this year, a viral TikTok featuring a McDonald's “secret dinner box” sparked demand for deals from the chain.
Leiela Kapewa-Latu went viral on TikTok after posting her family’s McDonald’s "dinner box" — which cost her $12 at a Texas McDonald's.
In the video, she shared what was included in the bundle box: two cheeseburgers, four small fries, 10-piece chicken nuggets, two Big Macs and sauces.

“If you didn’t know, like we didn’t know, $12 gets you a dinner box. It’s not on the menu,” the mom said.
At the time, McDonald’s confirmed with PEOPLE that franchises create their own prices and can set their own promotions that vary by restaurants. McDonald’s also confirmed that bundled deals like the viral boxes vary by location and are redeemable in the McDonald’s app.

The new nationwide McDonald’s deals don’t end with the $5 meal. For the rest of 2024, fans can snag free fries every Friday if they order in the McDonald’s app.
