So I discovered how to eat quite a bit of food at McDonald’s for only $2.14.
How to get a Big Mac, McChicken & Large Fry for $2.14 Everytime!
- For you to get started you will need a recent receipt from McDonald’s, if you don’t have one then you may purchase something for $1.
- The receipt will have a promo printed in the top right corner, but depending on the restaurant’s location, that promo may differ. The ones around me offer a free Big Mac or Muffin Sandwich with a purchase of $1 or more.
- All you have to do is fill out the survey on http://www.mcdvoice.com and BAM you have the coupon code for a free Big Mac with purchase of $1.
- When redeeming this coupon, you must order a McChicken and just one Big Mac sandwich (not a meal). Your total should only be $1.07.
- On a separate order, order a Large Fry. This time take advantage of the McDonald’s app offers that give you a $1 large fry. ($1.07 with tax)
Keep both of the receipts when you place the 2 orders, so that you may continue to receive free Big Macs.
🎁 Hack #2: Free McChicken or Cheeseburger with App Points
- Download the McDonald’s app and create an account.
- Every time you order through the app, you earn loyalty points.
- At 1,500 points, redeem for a free McChicken or Cheeseburger.
- Keep ordering small cheap items to rack up points fast!
🍦 Hack #3: Free Cone or Pie via Customer Service
- If something goes wrong (cold fries, missing item, etc.), report it via the McDonald’s app or their contact form.
- Be polite and detailed. Example: “I received cold fries at Location XYZ on [date/time].”
- Within 1–2 days, you’ll usually receive a coupon for a free apple pie, sundae, or cone.
🧠 Pro Tip: Don’t abuse this. Use only for real experiences or you risk being flagged.

I think I can 1-up you on this one. If you want completely free food, look on your receipt for a customer service number.
We did things like this in college to get by, and it doesn’t just work with McDonalds. Make it a point to call several of the restaurants in the area. Also, you don’t necessarily have to purchase something to have a receipt.
I’ve found them on the ground in parking lots and called to compliment based on the receipt I found.
