Although this deal may sound too good to be true—it isn’t. However, like with most things in life, there are limitations and requirements in place for the promotion.
- To partake of the special throwback prices, you are required to make a $1 additional minimum purchase from the menu.
- To receive the special price, you must place your order entirely and exclusively on the McDonald’s app.
- You are not able to use the Throwback Thursday deal on any orders placed Inside the restaurant.
- The deals will change each week, will only be available on Thursdays, and they are available the one day only.
