I don't know if it's targeted. But $2 it's cheap.

Last time it was $2, it was very popular.

    It is tailored for you….Macca's app is interesting, if you don't shop on it or look at it in a while they offer you better deals to entice you over.

    When we order Macca's we usually use my phone, as recent as last week it presented me a deal for a $2.50 McFlurry, whilst on my partner's phone (who doesn't usually order for us) it was showing a $2.00 McFlurry.

    Sometimes I just uninstall the app for a couple of months to get better deals later down the track.

    • I actually have 2 offers on McFlurry. One it's $2 and expires in 2 days. And one more for $2 that expires on 26/9, that's why I wasn't sure if it's targeted.

    • wouldn't the points you're missing out on without the app outweigh the 50 cents you may have gotten off a mcflurry after 2 months? depends how often you go there I guess

      • yeah i don't go there enough to try and understand & min-max the point system

        • $1 = 100 points and there's pretty frequently bonus points on over $x spend. but I would go there once a fortnight probably

          • @Aldonis: that doesn't really tell me much. what do points get you? i.e. how many points do i need to claim a mcflurry?

            • @whitepuma: The best value used to be 2500 points for a large McCafe coffee however they've changed it to a small/medium now.

            • @whitepuma: 5000 points for a mcflurry, but I usually spend 2500 on a medium mccafe beverage

              • @Aldonis: so spend $50 and get a free mcflurry, or $25 and get a free medium mccafe beverage.

                If i frequented mcdonalds i'd take this up, but as i don't i'll stick with stop using the app until better deals arise

      • The points are virtually worthless, so it's essentially not worth considering doing anything differently just to get points.

        For example, 2500 points gets you one hamburger; which would otherwise cost you $2. So, the 50 points that you would get for spending 50 cents gets you one twentieth (5%) of one hamburger.

        • it depends on how often they go without using the app. if they and their partner were to go once a month and spend $25 between them each time they would have the points to redeem a free mcflurry rather than maybe getting an additional 50 cent discount off of one from not using the app for 2 months

          • @Aldonis: Nah … a McFlurry 'costs' 5000 points; not 2500 points. In other words, to get a 'free' McFlurry, you would need to spend $50 actual dollars. It's a bit of a joke really, the whole Maccas points thing, because the points are almost totally worthless.

      That's not interesting, it's just basic marketing.

      • excuse me for finding marketing interesting

        • Hey I wasn't having a go… just saying it's typical capitalism.

      and spoon that tastes like wood

      We'll you'd hope the wooden spoon you get doesn't taste like anything else.

      So don’t eat the spoon

    • you want them to give it to you in a vacuum sealed zojirushi? stop whinging, Big Plastic

    • And top the experience off by having it home delivered.

    Use 4 separate email addresses and you will get a wide variety of deals….. 3 years since I paid full price for a McD coffee

    • Great tip. They stopped offering me cheap coffees altogether. Haven't had a coffee offer for months now. I'm not happy about it!

      • Coffee is the only thing I get with points so a quick cycle through the accounts for a deal and then if nothings available I just use points

  • Does Maccas no longer do the spin/mix thing before serving a McFlurry? The last 2 times I've bought one, they've basically put the ice cream in, sprinkled the topping on top, and handed it to me. I worked at Maccas when McFlurrys first came out and there was a machine that you had to put the cup under to mix it all up before giving it to the customer.

    • They've moved away from that long time ago now.

  • NUN
