Burger King
Burger King is serious when it comes to serving up tempting meal deals. After the success of its $5 Your Way Meal Deal last year, the fast food giant is back with another must-try offer. Introducing: $7 Trio Deal, available for pick-up, in-store, and via drive-thru. This limited-time offer allows fans to mix and match any three from menu items:
- 8-pc Chicken Fries
- Bacon Cheeseburger
- Original Chicken Sandwich
- Whopper Jr.
- Medium-sized French Fries
- Medium-sized Soft Drink
Let’s see how much savings we can get out of this new fast food deal. In my area, the Original Chicken Sandwich costs $7.49, the 8-pc Chicken Fries at $5.89, and the Medium-sized Soft Drink at $3.49. That’s a total of $16.87. And with Burger King’s new trio deal, the total savings would be nearly twelve bucks. If that’s not an irresistible deal, I don’t know what is!
Additionally, Burger King has a special offer exclusively for Royal Perks members: $35 Game Deal Bundle. As per the fast food chain, this new bundle has enough food to feed an entire team. Here’s what’s included:
- 2 orders of 8-pc Chicken Fries
- 2 orders of 8-pc Chicken Nuggets
- 2 orders of 8-pc Mozzarella Fries
- Your choice of three onion rings or three medium fries
- 6-pc Chocolate Chip Cookies
But that’s not all! Because Burger King is also offering $3 off any BK delivery with a purchase amount of $20 or more. This fast food deal should help you score additional savings when you order your favorites in time for the game day. Meanwhile, Burger King encourages fans to make use of this deal when they try some of the chain’s new popular meals like the Triple Bundle. Available for $24.99 (price may vary), this bundle includes a choice of three Original Chicken Sandwiches or Whoppers, three medium-sized fries or onion rings, two dipping sauces, and 8-pc chicken nuggets.
Please note, though, that the $3 off delivery and the $35 Game Day Bundle cannot be combined. Also, the latter is available via delivery, exclusively via the chain’s website or app.

Wendy’s
Last but not the least, we have Wendy’s latest 2 for $7 fast food deal. While it does have the same price as BK’s new meal deal, you only get to mix and match two items from this menu selection:

From The Club
Once again, these fast food deals are insane! But my eyes are on the most affordable one (Jack in the Box‘s $5 All Day Big Deal Meal). Burger King and Wendy’s have long been in the game of offering affordable meal deals, so it’s not surprising to see them in this roundup. Sonic, on the other hand, has a pretty solid lineup of fast food deals; I love that every day there’s a chance to save while satisfying cravings!
