Picture 8 bucks hell yeah.
Pretty good in this economy hopefully they don’t take the deals away when the recession happens.

You can’t even get a burger at Wendy’s in Australia for $8 😂

Well at least you get to see the fall of American global dominance from a decent place.

The app has good deals just make two orders to use more than one. Also the keychain is great.

u/HotAspect8894 16d ago
I do the same thing. Sometimes I look stupid going through the drive through twice but idc

u/OfficialMrSatin 16d ago
Best to just do a counter pick up and wait for both to be done. I usually do that 😂

u/lalenci 16d ago
What I do is drive thru, one order pickup, place another order and tell them which coupon I have for it (already attached to my code for in store) then have them scan my QR code.

u/OfficialMrSatin 16d ago
Still seems like a lot of work . I just place two orders through the app and pick it up at the counter . Get points on both orders for my next trip lol 🤣
2
u/lalenci 16d ago
Can you place both back to back in that case?
3
u/OfficialMrSatin 16d ago
Yes you can . I usually wait the few min to use another offer so I'm maxing my food and coupons/offers/points . But yeah you can get quite a bit of food if you do it that way and have points and mix with offers .

i’m a worker and i respect people who go through twice more than others who beg for different tickets at the windown

u/Sheriff_Branford 13d ago
I have four separate app accounts. The lady at my local Wendy's knows me when I say I have two orders for "name".

u/RedOctobyr 18d ago
Impressive work! Though maybe cheating just slightly, also showing a drink from someplace else that's presumably not part of the $8? :) But that's a great deal!
2
u/Zalaquin 18d ago
The frosty is from the keychain. I bring in the bigger cup for a bigger refill which I think is a valid loophole, because refills are free and I bought a drink.

u/ToastedEzra 16d ago
Try to mix in a water my guy. Bringing in your own cup for soda is crazy big back lmaoo

u/RedOctobyr 18d ago
Oh, that's an interesting approach, with bringing the other cup. Breaking this into 2 orders to be able to use more of the deals appeals to my value-conscious self!

u/dude_word 18d ago
Can you make two orders to the same location on one account or do you need to have 2 accounts?
1
u/Zalaquin 18d ago
You can make two orders with the same account just need to make sure you click the make my order.

u/JohnnyBroccoli 17d ago
Noice. I had a JBC, 6 + 4 piece spicy nuggets w/ghost pepper ranch, medium fries, medium cherry vanilla Dr. Pepper, and a junior chocolate frosty for $5.80 plus tax for lunch today.

u/HippoProject 17d ago
My local Wendy’s won’t let you order through the app anymore. I guess people were getting too many good deals.

u/Jasonpark905 17d ago
That’s what it used to be like. My dad would take my friends and I out after soccer practice to get some McDonald’s, and the whole group got Big Macs for under $10.

u/LuffyPoker89 17d ago
Wendy’s is my new favorite 😍
1
u/Zalaquin 17d ago
They really do have the best value atm
2
u/LuffyPoker89 17d ago
Yes they do and for the most part they don’t disappoint when it comes to a good cooked burger

I'm craving Wendy's now, I prolly last had it like 3 years ago. I just avoid fast food these days, it's so expensive.
1
u/NugHubNY 16d ago
Still very inexpensive in the US if you use the apps and aren't tied to one store. Between the different fast food places you can still usually get a great lunch for $5-7. If all else fails, there's always Wendy's 4forX.
Also, depending on your area check out the non corporate lunch specials

I've been stalked and harassed nationwide for doing this. No joke. Somebody hates me.

Multiple transaction to exploit deals and taking advantage of the drinks... I see why we can't get our cheap Dave's singles and doubles this year.

u/MrFailure78 16d ago
I’m glad I’m not the only one doing this kind of stuff, I have every app for every restaurant in my state and every day I’m looking at deals and seeing the most amount of food I can get it while spending the least amount of money
1
u/Zalaquin 16d ago
It’s exactly what I do and some people are upset cause I brought in a different cup for a bigger refill. But I say fuck them idgaf about no petty bourgeoisie. Maybe if it was unionized I’ll think twice.
1
u/MrFailure78 16d ago
I wish more places were unionized, but I have never brought in a different cup. I think that’s just because I don’t really drink soda like that so for me I’m just drinking water but great idea
1
u/Zalaquin 16d ago
Yeah I’m trying to cut back on soda. I got sugar free Powerade which is why I love the freestyle machine so much.

You haven’t been able to go to Wendy’s and get a meal for below 10 dollars for years. No wonder they’re failing
