Depending on the locations, sometimes curbside takes forever. Possibly short staffed at the times I tried. Much faster for me to just park and run in.

If using two coupons, I typically order 1 on the app and then check-in and get the pickup number while parked. And then make another order on the app right after while I wait for the first order.

Nothing is worse than skipping curbside (to be nice to the runners), going drive through instead, only to be told to go wait at curbside for your order :lol

To be honest, I think that this Rewards Program is corporate greed and frugality at its finest.

You need to spend 100 bucks in order to get points to redeem for just a Big Mac??

That is a tonne of fast food to buy in order to get a "Big" Mac or any Happy Meal.

My suggestion is to give customers a choice to redeem those points to enter contests for non food prizes or food prizes.
Offer better rewards than just food prizes to customers.

Examples: Points to redeem for contest entries for $100 or other cash prizes. Video game consoles, Gift cards. etc.

They also seemed to scale back the "offers" that were previously within the app. Replacing them with shittier offers, along with this "reward" system.

Agreed, the new rewards system is absolute greed.

With the old system, if I grab my family food, I can easily gain 4 reward tabs.

Now with the new system, grabbing food for the family can only yield 2000-2500 points which is a far reach for a reasonable redemption.

It's similar to what Starbucks changed their reward system to.

SkinnyPupp 11-17-2021 08:43 AM

Depending on what the prices are, it's basically a 5% discount

My local McDs has stopped selling poutine and shakes due to supply chain issues. Everything else still a-ok for now.

Saw on my feeds that $1 coffee is back ... on the 7th or 8th ...wooopeee!

inv4zn 02-14-2022 11:22 AM

So we swung by a McD on Saturday, and my wife is looking through her app. And there's a "Buy 6/10 Nuggets, get one free". So we're like ok, sweet, so we order - and as we're waiting to pay, the wife is like hmm something's weird.

Turns out the promo, is you get a single nugget for free. :heckno:

I guess inflation is hitting McD hard...lol

punkwax 02-14-2022 11:47 AM

Ok I give up trying to post an image but it literally says get a bonus chicken McNugget

:lol Verbatim.

Had the same thought yesterday, was debating if I wanted 6+6 or 10+10 nuggets. Turns out it was 10+1, ordered it anyways as I wanted nuggets. They gave me the bag and I opened it up and saw a box of 10 nuggets and a single nugget in the bag. Looked like it was just thrown in the bag, pulled over and took a closer look and there was a hashbrown sleeve in my bag too, so it must have fallen out.

6thGear. 02-14-2022 03:33 PM

LOL.

mikemhg 02-15-2022 11:35 AM

LMAO, ever since Mcdicks rolled out that new reward program, the offers became total shit.

SSM_DC5 02-15-2022 04:07 PM

Are the free coffee stickers useless now and I can throw them out?

Keep the physical cards, it’s the online cards that expire end of this month

Coffee cups stick coming with physical cards and stickers so yes, for now, still works.

TOS'd 02-15-2022 06:16 PM

Re: Physical cards

Note that in the Province of Manitoba, and in Dryden, Kenora and Fort Frances, Ontario, the on-cup McCafé Rewards program ended as of October 5, 2021. Completed McCafé Rewards cards will be redeemed at participating McDonald’s restaurants in these areas until February 28, 2022.


TLDR: physical cards expire for redemption only in the province of Manitoba and 3 towns in Ontario.
