McDonalds McPick 2 for $5 Menu.
McDonald’s is launching a new deal on Monday Feb. 29.
This is happening only a few months after McDonald’s launched its “McPick 2 for $2” deal.
The deal is meant to replace the 2 for $2 deal, which was being tested as a new “Value Menu”.
It’s unclear, if the new offer is another short term meal deal, or a long term menu.
McDonald’s new McPick 2 for $5 menu means that you can choose 2 of these for $5:
- Big Mac
- 10-piece Chicken McNuggets
- Filet-O-Fish
- Quarter Pounder with Cheese.
- Fries.
Why is McDonalds introducing the 2 for 5$ menu?
In January, McDonalds started offering the McPick 2 for $2 menu, that included the McDouble, McChicken, Small Fry and Mozzarella sticks.
We are guessing that McDonalds have seen the writing on the wall: The 2 for 2$ is simply not making them enough money. Too many customers are choosing the cheap option of a quick meal for $2, instead of opting for a larger menu deal. The company wants people to spend at least $5 per visit.
However, the 2-for-$5 deal makes McDonald’s promo deal seem quite expensive compared to Burger King current five-items-for-$4 deal, and Wendy’s 4-for-$4 deal.
So, probably McDonalds will lose some customers among the “price is everything” value seekers, in the short term. We assume that McDonalds are fine with that.
They are calculating making a larger profit on those people, who do stay and opt for larger premium items, rather than try to cater to the budget deal chasers at any cost. Note that the 2 for $5 menu does not include any drinks and a large number of customers will probably add a soft drink, when ordering.
