This offer is not dead for most people. Some locations switched to 1x weekly vs 1x daily. If you want to know whether your location is 1x/week or 1x/daily, click on the offer in your app and you will see it.

If you use the offer once in the week and the offer disapppears then most likely your store is doing the offer once a week.

Some stores also have the offer disabled Friday through Sunday.

Check back every Monday to see if the offer shows up again if the offer disappears on you.

In select areas, the offer is now $2 per sandwich starting 8/20/18

The deal is available once a day, and it resets at midnight. However, there is a period of couple hours right after midnight when it is not shown yet. Please don't be alarmed if you don't see it after reset - it will be back shortly.

But if you are alarmed because a mcdonalds coupon is not showing up at 2AM, you need to re-evaluate your priorities in life or adjust your meds...

These coupons really come in handy at airports, transit hubs etc where the menu prices are normally much higher assuming you use the fixed price ones like $1 sandwich. Most of those locations think they don't take coupons, and won't scan your phone, but you can place a mobile order and pick it up. Did this most recently at Logan and MSP.

Also, many locations offer really good deals on 10 piece nuggets or big macs (between free and $2) when local sports teams do something like get a sack, or 5 runs etc. The deal automatically appears the next day. I always check for these if I'm in need of a quick meal while travelling through airports.
Here's a pro tip for using more than one coupon in a single visit.

Place a mobile order with deal of your choice, using the app. Once you arrive at McDonalds, check in and choose "pick up inside". This charges your method of payment and clears your order out of the mobile app. Then, proceed to counter and make an additional order with a different coupon. It makes it a bit less awkward than making multiple separate orders at the counter.
Ask for no bun

used 2 phones (thanks sprint BYOD) for a 2x grilled artisan chicken with no bun, they gave me a nice bed of lettuce and tomato. A 1 dollar salad with 37g of protein. Just no dressing. Amazing deal I've been doing daily.

How is this unhealthy?

The coupon will ALWAYS apply it to the lowest cost burger.
Actually, that is not true. When you click on the coupon, a menu comes up displaying all the eligible sandwiches. The coupon applies to the one you click on. If you want another sandwich, you then click on "Order More" which would be at regular price.

I have been killing this coupon the last week. The Bacon Quarter Pounder is the most expensive sandwich you can get at least here in DFW. I will order a plain McChicken for the kiddo and and a sandwhich for myself and the coupon always goes towards my $5 sandwhich and not the $1 McChicken.

Pro Tip;

I talking to the cashier about how to best take advantage of this coupon. It will actually cover a "double quarter pounder" if you *add* a patty to a singer quarter pounder. Cashier says this is the trick he does himself to take advantage of coupon.

My comment was simply asking you why you would bring up an imaginary concern. If you had tried to use the app, and had a question, I can understand that. But to ask a question which would be answered as soon as you try to use this offer, I wanted some insight into a mind that would inquire such needless concern.

Anything you add over the norm adds to the price. Pricing varies, but adding a patty adds $2 to the cost. Granted a $3 double QPC isn't bad, but I can't see the app rolling it into the $1. Adding cheddar cheese to my chicken dlx made it $1.30.

Outside of the actual quality of their chicken, it's plenty healthy.

I just hate when I get people that want to charge me for the leaf when I get a bun less sandwich. McD's needs some standards for when people forgo the bun. At least chik-fil-a puts a cost on the bun so if you go no bun and add lettuce, they pretty much cancel each other out. And I wish they'd go with iceberg. Their lettuce quality is extremely variable. Sometimes it just seems so far from fresh. Most places I go that have iceberg always seem to be fresh and crisp. Makes it easier to handhold too.

Sorry. Was more focusing on people defaulting to mobile ordering. And for as wonky as the app can be, you never know if there's a difference between availability on the app and what's actually at that McD's. Guess I'm spoiled in my area because I always see the chicken options where I go. Though McD's chicken is the worst of the bunch for fast food. At least compared to Wendy's, Chick-fil-A and BK. And if you're in an area that has Wawa, their grilled chicken or chicken cheese steaks are much better. And for the glutards and ketos, you can special order and tell them to skip the roll and put it in a bowl. And get spinach, roasted peppers and sautéed onions. And add roasted veggies for a buck.

Also, with the ability to customize sandwiches at McD's, you can pretty much create a deluxe or club. It's just going to eat into the savings. Bacon is an expensive add on.
It's not on the kiosk either.

Bacon adds $1.19 and they don't cheese even offer Swiss cheese although you can get other cheese for $0.40.

Also you can get another sandwich with bacon and cheese for a buck and cannibalize it... If you were thrifty

I did say it was an expensive add on. Kind of dumb to be able to customize a sandwich to that of a standard one they do have but don't offer at certain stores.

It was not an imaginary concern. I was on my way out the door to do exactly as I stated. I order via voice at the drive through window and not the app. At drive through cashier is where you show the coupon. Was wondering if placing the higher priced item first in the order would mean the coupon would apply to that higher prices item or vice versa.

What's needless is asking if I even tried it. Had I tried it, I would have already had the answer and wouldn't be asking the question.

After all that, you did not even report back what you found out. I will say that I would not do this coupon with multiple sandwiches in drive thru. Drive thru requires manual intervention and results are not predictable.

So apparently, it was not a bad question as at least one person wants to know the answer.

This is the way it worked for me today at drive through:
Ordered the Egg McMuffin first, then ordered the Bacon McDouble plus lettuce and tomato.
Went to drive up cashier and gave her the app coupon on phone.
It gave me the more expensive sandwich ( the Egg McMuffin) for $1 and charged $2.50 for the Bacon McDouble plus lettuce and tomato.

Could be lots of permutations and combinations and as you say randomness with drive through cashier. She didn't seem to do anything other than scan the coupon and it seemed their system automatically did it.

Don't know if it will do the first sandwich ordered for the $1 every time. It did this time. YMMV.

Does $1 off bacon, egg and cheese biscuit work for bacon, egg and cheese biscuit without bacon?

Or still cheaper ordering egg and cheese biscuit sans coupon?

Separately, is $.49 cone one time, and disappears forever? Or daily?
