KFC's Tuesday bucket deal is a cheap way to get a full chicken meal, especially when the app or a participating store shows the 8 piece dark meat bucket at the advertised price. The portions can be generous, with large thighs, biscuits, and sides making it enough for multiple dinners in some orders. The main drawback is consistency, since availability varies by location and the chicken can arrive dry, oily, salty, soggy, or stale. It feels like a solid value when the store is participating and the batch is fresh.

Common Questions (5)

  • For some shoppers it is a good cheap dinner, especially when local grocery-store chicken costs more or sits under heat lamps too long. Others point to Safeway, Albertsons, Publix, WinCo, Costco, or Acme as cheaper alternatives with better quality in their area.

  • No. Participation is location-based, and some stores do not offer it for online ordering or at all. The deal is also tied to Tuesdays and can vary by state, with higher prices in AK, HI, and CA.

  • Yes, the Tuesday bucket deal is for 8-piece dark meat buckets, so it is legs and thighs only. That makes it a strong value for dark-meat fans but a poor fit if you want wings or white meat.

  • Yes, at some participating stores it can be bought in-store without the app. The app or KFC.com banner is required for some online redemptions, but one report says multiple local KFCs sold it without needing the app.

  • The deal is for 8 pieces of chicken, and one app checkout example showed 8 pieces plus 4 small sides and 4 biscuits for $20. Another purchase of the thigh-and-drumstick bucket was enough for two full dinners plus leftovers.

Not sure if it's location based(MN here) but I know I checked this past Tuesday on the app and did not see the $10 8pc offer. It hasn't been available for a month now from what I can tell.
Says in the title.... Deal Arrives This Tuesday!

I have this fond memory from 35 years ago. It was my mom and dad taking me to KFC to try out their new menu item, chicken Littles. Going out was always special to me, and my parents made the the little trip feel like an adventure. I miss my dad... RIP

Too bad. KFC near my house closed.
Same with me. They closed two in my local area and the only one that's open will probably close soon too. Not fit to eat and expensive. Leadington, Missouri.

The KFC promotion of 8 pieces for $10 was advertised in my area, but I noticed that the price had been changed to $11 using tape.
Everyone has gotten into the, let's raise prices and blame it on gas prices, they won't go back down though.

I remember when 2 people could eat the buffet for less than $12, and it was good too. There's a KFC buffet still open at the Leadington, Missouri location, all of the other KFC stores have closed near me. Two people buffet cost with tax is about $33. That's nuts. Chicken is still cheap.

I sent this letter to the main office of KFC back in 2008 - it was a culmination of events that finally made me quit KFC for good. Interestingly, a new Popeye's opened not far from me and I had not had any for a long time, so having fond memories I ordered chicken only. I was shocked at 3 things - the chicken was really expensive, the pieces were incredibly small and the chicken was dried out. So they're on my sh@t list too.

Dear Kentucky Fried Chicken,

I've been meaning to write this letter for years, but have never gotten around to it until I recently viewed your 'Sauce-less Hot Wings' commercial advertising 20 'chicken wings' for $9.99, which actually would cost about $10.75 in my area with the local sales tax added. When you say 'chicken wing', you actually mean 'chicken wing part', which is either the chicken wing itself or the drumstick portion. That means you're selling 10 whole chicken wings, cooked, with spice added, for $1.075 per wing. Given that you can usually get 5 whole wings from a pound of raw chicken wings, and given that I can often buy a pound of raw chicken wings for 99 cents a pound, it would cost me about $2.15 (with tax added) to buy 2 pounds or 10 whole chicken wings. Naturally, I'll have to expend some cost in cooking and flavoring the wings, as well as time, but I have to assume that it would be far less than the $8.60 premium ($10.75 less $2.15) that you have designated to a lousy 10 whole chicken wings cooked the KFC 'sauce-less' way. Not only that, but every time I've ordered KFC chicken, the different pieces are always smaller than what I get at Church's or Popeye's,

Who are you kidding? Did someone slip LSD into your sauce-less wings??

To be fair, you lost me as a regular customer years ago, when the local KFC stores literally could not get my English-ordered requests correct 50% of the time, nor my brother's. This is not a joke – I have loved Kentucky Fried Chicken since I was a kid (I'm 51 years old now), but the resulting incorrect orders drove me away, as well as the often dried-out chicken I got on the correct orders due to too-lengthy stays under the heat lamps – that goes for hot wings as well as the regular chicken.

So, I gave up. I could not count on KFC to deliver a quality product, and not only that, but the same product I'd ordered CLEARLY, IN ENGLISH. I live in America, and I reasonably expect the people taking my order to understand ENGLISH, whether they are citizens or not. Therefore, my rational response to incompetent service, overpriced product and substandard product was to simply stop patronizing your outlets. If I want good fried chicken, reasonably priced, then I either cook it myself or I go to Church's or Popeye's, but your lousy chain will never get my business again.

Good deal on chicken.
Good replacement for home-cooked meal.
For $10, it's better to buy this than cooking your own.

$1 a wing is a joke. $10 for legs and thighs is a joke.

secret: go to your local grocery store like Safeway or Albertsons, they frequently have $5 bucket of fried chicken and its 100x better than KFC trash. But get it when it's hot from the fryer or else it won't taste nearly as good!
Not endorsing KFC chicken in any way. But the $5 fried or roasted chicken in Safeway is all salt. You eat that chicken, you feel that your tongue has been marinating in brine for a week. At least that was my experience at my local Safeway.

Yes, they sometimes have $5 promotion, but they always over fry the chicken which make them dry and hard to eat. I will buy them, but they are nowhere as good as kfc.
