Filet-O-Fish, Large Drink & Medium Fries - $3 @ McDonald's (Friday's only - YMMV)

$3.00
-3 Deal Score

I found out that in the app right now for McDonald's you stack Free Fry Fridays (mobile orders only) with $2 Filet-O-Fish Fridays and then order a drink for a dollar. Might be a partial YMMV? My coworkers and I both replicated the deal. I know the sandwich might not be the best in the world, but you can't beat it imo for a $3 combo.

NOTE: In the app it does show the sandwich as full price but when you add to "bag" and go to your bag for checkout, it lowers the price.

I didn't get that filet o fish but did get a free chicken sandwich without purchase. It was below average, so don't waste your money on it.

McDonald's has switched to blanched Carp. They say it's a more delicious fish, and in their taste tests was preferred over salmon 4-1 by people who typically enjoy white fish.
Nobody eats carp. That's a trash fish.

FYI you better check the price of large drinks now. They're no longer $1 after like a five year run, they went back to normal price.

They're a dollar here still in LA so that's probably up to the franchise owner.

Yeah. We did a video comparison (coming out Tuesday) of McDonald's, Popeyes, Chickfila, KFC and Wendy's chicken sandwiches. McDonald's tied for last. It wasn't horrible - just not memorable.
Quote from stevenl :
on Fridays, they also have free medium fries with $1 purchase, using the app.
Yeah, that's what I used for getting this deal haha.
Quote from bigal24 :
Not able to replicate the deal, do I have to add in certain order?
So I...
1) add a drink
2) add the free medium fries and then
3) add the filet o fish sandwich. When I add it it showed as full price but when you went to the checkout page it showed the offer as added.
Quote from RodneyE4012 :
Where do you see the free fry Fridays? Do you just add the regular fish o fillet? Im not able to replicate this.

Edit: limited to one deal per visit. All other deals are unavailable for 60 Min. Dang it!
See above. Yeah, it also knows if you have more than one account haha.

BLANCHED carp. Don't knock it until you've tried it.

If you're looking for a fish sandwich, Arby's has theirs for $1 with the coupon in this thread:

https://slickdeals.net/f/14865706-arby-s-crispy-fish-sandwich-1?v=1

It is a reasonably good sandwich, certainly worth a buck.

Had the Popeyes Cajun flounder sandwich yesterday and it was pretty good. Definitely better than McDs filet o fish IMO.
