Saving Money on McDonald’s Orders in Singapore

Utilize the McDonald’s App

Download & Registration

The first step to saving money on your McDonald’s orders is to download the McDonald’s app. Once downloaded, you’ll need to register an account. This will give you access to MyMcDonald’s Rewards, a points-based loyalty program that allows you to earn points with every purchase. As a welcome bonus, you’ll receive 300 points on your first order.

Exclusive App Deals

The McDonald’s app is not just a tool for ordering food; it’s also a hub for exclusive deals. These deals rotate regularly and include offers like 1-for-1 deals, discounted items, and special promotions like Happy Mondays. To claim any offer, simply click on the ‘Deals’ tab, select the offer you’d like to redeem, and add it to your mobile order.

Point System & Rewards

With MyMcDonald’s Rewards, you earn 10 points for every S$1 you spend. These points can be redeemed for a variety of free menu items. To start earning points, ensure you’ve opted into the MyMcDonald’s Rewards Loyalty Programme in the app.

Pre-order & Collect

The McDonald’s app also allows you to pre-order your meals and collect them at your convenience. You can choose to collect your order at the counter for takeaway, dine-in with table service, or pick it up at the drive-thru. This not only saves you time but also allows you to skip the queues.

Master the Menu & Order Smart

Combo Meal Magic

Understanding the McDonald’s menu can be the key to unlocking significant savings. One of the most effective strategies is to take advantage of combo meals.

Combo meals, also known as Value Meals, typically include a main item (like a burger or McNuggets), a side (like fries or apple slices), and a drink. The cost of a combo meal is often less than the total cost of these items if ordered separately. For example, an iconic Big Mac burger is priced from S$4.70, while the Cheesy Fries are priced from S$2.90. If you add a drink to this, the total cost can be quite high. However, a meal consisting of a burger plus sides will typically cost less than S$7, offering great value for money.

However, it’s important to consider your actual appetite and preferences. If you’re not particularly thirsty or if you don’t enjoy fries, the combo meal might not offer the best value for you. In such cases, ordering your preferred main item from the ala-carte menu might be more economical.

Remember, the goal is not just to spend less, but to get more value for every dollar spent. So, the next time you’re at McDonald’s, take a moment to do the math and see if a combo meal is the magic trick you need to save money.

Value Picks & Breakfast Deals

Value Picks are a great way to save money on your McDonald’s orders. These are budget-friendly options that offer great value for money. For example, the Extra Value Meals include a main item, a side, and a drink at a lower price than if you were to order these items separately.

Breakfast Deals are another excellent way to save. McDonald’s breakfast menu is available before 11am on weekdays and 12pm on weekends and public holidays. The menu includes a variety of options such as the Breakfast Deluxe and the Big Breakfast. These meals offer a combination of items like scrambled eggs, toasted wholegrain muffins, and savoury chicken sausage at a lower price than if you were to order these items separately.

In addition, McDonald’s Singapore has introduced the Breakfast Wrap Chicken Sausage McSaver™ Meal. For a limited time price of S$6, you can enjoy a hearty breakfast wrap, a crispy hash brown, and a freshly brewed coffee. This promotion promises a satisfying start to your day with a hearty breakfast wrap coupled with a hot beverage.

Remember, the key to saving money at McDonald’s is to understand the menu and make smart choices. So, whether you’re ordering for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, be sure to check out the Value Picks and Breakfast Deals.

Downsizing Portions

Another effective strategy to save money at McDonald’s is to consider downsizing your portions. This can be particularly beneficial if you’re not very hungry or if you’re trying to eat healthier.

For example, a large serving of French fries at McDonald’s in Singapore is 5.9 oz, while a small serving is 2.6 oz. If you find that a large serving is too much for you, consider opting for a small serving instead. Not only will this save you money, but it will also reduce your calorie intake.

Similarly, consider the size of your drink. In the 1950s, there was only one size of soda available at McDonald’s, and it was a modest 7 oz. Today, a large soda at McDonald’s is a whopping 30 oz. If you don’t need that much soda, consider opting for a smaller size. Again, this will save you money and reduce your sugar intake.

Remember, at McDonald’s, you’re in control of your order. Don’t be afraid to customize your meal to suit your appetite and your budget.

Skip the Add-ons & Upsizing

While add-ons and upsizing can make your meal more satisfying, they can also significantly increase the cost. For example, adding extra cheese to your burger or upsizing your drink can add a few dollars to your bill.

Consider the Filet-O-Fish meal. In 2022, the upsized meal cost S$6.40, but in 2023, the price increased to S$6.40 + S$1 = S$7.40. That’s an increase of 11.11%. If you’re not particularly hungry or thirsty, skipping the upsizing can save you money.

Similarly, consider whether you really need that extra cheese on your burger. While it might enhance the flavor, it also adds to the cost. If you’re trying to save money, it might be worth skipping the add-ons.

Remember, every dollar counts when you’re trying to save money. So, the next time you’re at McDonald’s, consider whether you really need those add-ons and upsizes.

Leverage External Promotions & Discounts

Credit Card Rewards

Many credit cards in Singapore offer rewards, cashback, or miles when you use them to pay for your meals at McDonald’s. Here are some of the best credit cards for fast food purchases:

• OCBC 365 Card: This card offers 5% cashback on dining and food delivery with a minimum monthly spend of S$800.
• Citi Cash Back Card: With this card, you can earn 6% cashback on dining with a minimum monthly spend of S$800.

• UOB Lady’s Card: With this card, you can earn 15X UNI$ per S$5 spend (6 miles per S$1 spend) on chosen categories, including dining.

Remember, the key to maximizing your savings is to use the right card for the right purchase. So, before you place your next McDonald’s order, consider which credit card could give you the most rewards.

Delivery Platforms & Deals
In addition to in-store promotions, McDonald’s Singapore also offers exclusive deals through its delivery platform, McDelivery. These deals are often time-limited and can range from discounted items to freebies with a minimum spend.

For example, from 4 January onwards, customers who order via McDelivery and spend a minimum of S$22 (excluding delivery fee) can receive a free McDonald’s Coca-Cola Colour Changing Cup. The colour of the cup changes weekly, adding an element of surprise to your order.

It’s worth noting that these deals are subject to availability and terms and conditions. Therefore, it’s always a good idea to check the McDelivery website or app for the latest deals before placing your order.

Remember, the key to saving money is to stay informed about the latest deals and promotions. So, whether you’re ordering for delivery or dining in, be sure to check out the latest deals on the McDelivery platform.

Student & Senior Discounts

McDonald’s is known for its commitment to serving all segments of the community, and students and seniors are no exception.

Student Discounts:
While McDonald’s does not currently offer a company-wide student discount, it’s worth noting that promotions and discounts can vary by location and time. Therefore, students are encouraged to check the McDonald’s app or website regularly for the latest deals and promotions. In some countries, McDonald’s has offered discounts to students with a valid student ID or through platforms like Student Beans. So, it’s always worth asking at your local McDonald’s.

Senior Discounts:
As for senior citizens, discounts can vary greatly by location. Some McDonald’s locations may offer discounts on certain items or small-sized drinks to those ages 55 and up. However, these discounts are not company-wide and can vary by location. Therefore, seniors are encouraged to inquire about potential discounts at their local McDonald’s.

Remember, the key to saving money is to stay informed about the latest deals and promotions. So, whether you’re a student, a senior, or somewhere in between, be sure to check out the latest deals at your local McDonald’s.

Sharing with Friends

One of the simplest and most enjoyable ways to save money at McDonald’s is to share your meal with friends. Not only does this allow you to enjoy a variety of menu items, but it also helps to reduce the cost per person.

Consider the Combo Sharebag from McDonald’s. It includes 4 burgers, 2 regular fries, 2 small fries, 2 regular soft drinks, 2 small soft drinks, and a 10-piece Chicken McNuggets. This is a great option if you’re dining with a group, as it offers a variety of items at a lower cost per person than if each person were to order their meals separately.

Another strategy is to split a large meal. For example, a large fries or a 20-piece Chicken McNuggets can be easily shared among two or more people. This not only allows everyone to enjoy their favorite items, but it also helps to reduce the cost.

Sharing is caring – and in this case, it’s also a smart way to save money at McDonald’s.

Free Water & Condiments

Free Water:
While it might be tempting to add a bottled water to your order, there’s a cost-effective alternative available. McDonald’s provides a free cup of cold water if you simply ask for it. This can be a great way to stay hydrated without adding to the cost of your meal.

Condiments:
When it comes to condiments, McDonald’s has a policy in place. While you may be entitled to a certain quantity of free McNugget Sauces (Curry and BBQ) depending on your order, additional units of McNugget Sauce will be charged at S$0.50 each. Therefore, it’s worth considering whether you really need that extra sauce.

Birthday Treats & Rewards

McDonald’s appreciates its customers and loves to celebrate their special days with them. If you’re a member of MyM Rewards, you can look forward to receiving birthday treats during your birthday month.

In the past, McDonald’s Singapore has offered a promotion where you could purchase an ala carte 6-piece Chicken McNuggets® for just S$1 during your birthday month. While the specific offers may vary from year to year, you can always expect a special treat from McDonald’s on your birthday.

To ensure you don’t miss out on these birthday treats, make sure you’ve opted into the MyM Rewards Loyalty Programme on the McDonald’s app. Then, when your birthday month rolls around, check the app for your birthday treat.

Local McDonald’s Variations

McDonald’s has mastered the art of localizing its menu to cater to the tastes and preferences of its customers in different regions. In Singapore, McDonald’s has introduced several unique offerings that not only cater to local tastes but are also often more affordable than regular burgers.

For instance, McDonald’s Singapore has introduced a new take on a local favorite, the Sweet ‘N Sour Burger. This burger features crispy fish or chicken, complemented with pineapple, crispy shallots, and more. It’s a great example of how McDonald’s has successfully integrated itself into the Singaporean experience.

Another example is the Filet-O-Fish meal, which is a popular choice among Singaporeans. The meal includes a Filet-O-Fish burger, a side, and a drink. It’s a great value for money, especially when compared to other menu items.
