Columbus, Ohio – Wendy’s is offering a savory deal to burger lovers in honor of National Burger Day on May 28. The fast-food chain is selling its beloved Jr. Bacon Cheeseburgers for just 1 cent each from May 28 to June 2. This promotion gives customers a chance to enjoy a classic burger at a fraction of the price compared to previous years.
In a statement announcing the promotion, Wendy’s encouraged customers to savor a fresh and never frozen beef burger to celebrate National Hamburger Day. To take advantage of this incredible deal, customers simply need to purchase another item and apply the digital bacon cheeseburger offer, which can be accessed exclusively on the Wendy’s app and website.
However, there are some restrictions to keep in mind. The offer is valid only during the six-day period and must be redeemed through the customer’s account on the Wendy’s app or website. Additionally, customers are not allowed to combine multiple meal deals in a single order.
This special promotion coincides with Wendy’s English muffin deal, where customers can enjoy a bacon or sausage English muffin with egg and cheese along with small seasoned potatoes for just $3. Wendy’s, along with other fast-food chains, is making efforts to attract customers who have been impacted by the rising costs of fast food due to inflation.
McDonald’s, for example, recently introduced a $5 value menu to address customer concerns about price increases. The chain had faced criticism for nearly tripling the price of their McDouble over the past decade. McDonald’s CEO, Chris Kempczinski, emphasized the importance of affordability for customers in the face of elevated prices across the industry.
As consumers navigate higher prices in their daily spending habits, fast-food chains are striving to offer deals and value menus to appeal to budget-conscious customers. Whether it’s Wendy’s 1-cent burger promotion or McDonald’s $5 value menu, these initiatives are aimed at providing customers with affordable options amidst inflationary pressures.
