Well, I have a boring question. Where can I go to get coupons for McDonalds?

Asked by Dutchess_III (46812points) July 23rd, 2013

I’ve found a few sites but they all want my email address and I’m not going to give it to them!

According to McDonald’s main website, they aren’t currently offering coupons. You can, however, get coupons in your mail and as inserts in newspapers for your local McDonald’s.

See what it says. I can’t get the link to work to sign up for coupons by email from the Mickey D site though.

Call the main number and ask: 1–800-244–6227

There is no such thing as a “free lunch”, even it it is free money wise. If it is not in the Sunday paper you most likely will not find it ABSOLUTELY FREE.

Your local radio station probably gives free promo coupons. Listen to win & get on eletters, etc…

I didn’t say anything about free Hippy Central!

Naw…I wanted them today because I decided to go to McDonalds today.

Have you tried the wraps?

^^ If you are buying coupons, why would they need your email address?

Dutchess_III's avatar

Didn’t say I was buying them, either! I imagine they want my email address so they could drown me in ads, which is why I didn’t give it to them.

No I haven’t tried the wraps @bkcunningham.

They are low(er) calories and delicious. I personally have tried the ranch and the chile something or other. Both are good but the chile is my favorite.

You mean the quarter pounder I bought isn’t low in calories??!!! :) I was really craving the meat, though.

bkcunningham's avatar

The wraps are chicken.

You do know that craving a quarter pounder means you could be pregnant.

Don’t you have an email acct. devoted solely to signing up for crap like this?

I have one and I just called it jem1234 ( jem stands for Junk E Mail) and anytime I come across some site wanting my email addy to get free goodies, that’s the address they get.

Once the coupon comes I just print it and delete. Once a month or so, I go into the acct. and just delete everything.

There are still lots of sites offering free webmail. Just sign up for one. And some of these sites will auto-delete any accts without any login from you in 30–45 days (or whatever limit they set).

Everybody should have at least one throwaway acct. you’d be surprised at how handy you’ll find it.

I do, @Buttonstc.

LOL! Right @bkcunningham! Although when I WAS pregnant I always craved McDonald’s cheeseburgers. I don’t know why. I always wondered what the pioneer ladies did when they craved McDonald’s cheeseburgers when they were pregnant.

I craved buttermilk when I was pregnant. I love me some buttermilk. Mmmm

Pioneer women craving McDonald’s cheeseburgers? LOL I can’t think of a funny comeback. I have only eaten maybe three McDonald’s burgers in my entire life. I don’t like them. I love Five Guys’ burgers and Wendy’s though.

If you do have an acct. specifically designed to get the goodies without having to give up your primary acct. then I’m confused about why you’re unwilling to give it to them.

Doesn’t that kinda defeat its purpose? What am I missing here?

Dutchess_III's avatar

I’m hesitant to give ANY access to a site I know nothing about.

Buttonstc's avatar

Well, I guess I’m a little less cautious with a junk email web-only address which has no connection to me in RL whatsoever. Even my sign up email addy is another web-only throwaway. Good luck trying to track me down, ha ha.

And the moment anything bothersome occurs, (highly unlikely) I just let the acct. lapse and 45 days later, its gone altogether never to be seen again.

Heck, even my Facebook is my SN only. I’m not too worried about the virtual world regardless of which site I’m dealing with. It’s ALL an illusion.

:D

I got hit with a virus a couple of months ago, when I went in to a legitimate business web site to apply for a job. Cost me about $200 to get rid of it. BUT I got to meet ETPro by phone because of it! So that was very cool.

Buttonstc's avatar

Ahhh…you’re on Windoze. That explains a lot.

Where else would I be?
