List Of Fast Food Apps That Will Get You Some Deals

Some of our interns were talking about their favorite places to grab lunch while being smart with their money. Together, we made a list of apps for a bunch of our favorite places. We thought we’d share this list with our loyal listeners, and FYI this list is not in any particular order:

• Chick-fil-A:  Scan your app when you purchase something to earn points and redeem rewards. Through their tier system check out the app to see how many points you can earn per dollar, you can even save points to redeem your favorite free items such as milkshakes, chicken nuggets, and salads.

• McDonald’s: You don’t have to spend to earn points! Deals change daily and depend on location you choose to visit. Some deals include 99 cent hotcakes, buy one Big Mac get one free, $3 large shakes.

• Panera: Every time you go to Panera scan your app or card in order to get rewards. Panera’s rewards system is by visit amounts; Intern Julia once got a free you-pick-two meal!

• Chipotle: 10 points for every dollar you spend, and when you save 1250 points you can redeem a free entrée. There are opportunities to get free drinks and free chips and guacamole on your birthday!

• Playa Bowls: 15% off for activation, One dollar spent is 15 points and you can get half off a bowl on your birthday!
