Default McDonald's Summer Specials?



I just saw an ad on TV where they were advertising a "summer special" for
McDonald's hamburgers and cheeseburgers.

The hamburgers are being sold at $.49 and the cheeseburgers are being sold
for $.59 all through summer! Well, as far as I know, the summer solstice
ends around Sept. 22; in about a week. How come they're blasting this
commercial now (I saw it played 2 times in one commercial break, but haven't
seen it shown all summer previously) when summer started in June?

Has anyone else seen this promotion and if so, when did you first hear about
it?

I've already had my 2 visits to McD's this year, but if I were to
go again I'd just get the double cheeseburger for $.99 (is it
still $.99?) Regular cheeseboogers have too much bread and not
enough actual food inside. For $.20 less I can get the same
nurishment from the regular-price menu.

I've never seen it advertised, but I only watch the Playboy and
Adult Pay-Per-Veiw channels. But it doesn't surprise me that
McD's would stoop that low to pull such a deceptive stunt. They
must not have gotten their shipment of downer cows in until late
this summer.

Had the promotion actually started at the beginning of summer, it
would have been suspicious that it would have come shortly after
the largest beef recall in history. 143 million pounds of
recalled beef would be enough to make over a billion hamburgers.

Good point. I think the double cheeseburgers have pickles and onions, too, don't they?


Ah! I had forgotten about that recall. I'll bet you're right on the money
on that one.

Yes, they come with pickles and small chopped cooked onions (as opposed
to the raw sliced onion that come on the 1/4 pounder, which I can't
stand) and mustard/ketchup. Very driver friendly, good for the late
night munchies when cruising around town and want to get rid of the
change that's collected in the center console.

I wasn't aware that one could purchase anything for 12 cents.

TFM® - I like raw onion too...

Holy Shit! No I never saw that promotion, I wish it would come to my area
because I usually grab a few extra cheeseburger's for bribe food.

Well, go and check it out. It can't hurt. If it's not there you could
always order something else. It does seem like it's a sporadic deal around
the U.S. The areas I know for sure who are participating are: Central to
Southern Florida; Trumbull, CT; and Wilder, KY. According to the McD's
corporate office, it was a nationwide deal, but it was up to the individual
stores to determine if they wanted to participate in the promotion.
