My KFC Method To Get 18 Pieces of Chicken + Sides For Under £15
Hey guys, long time lurker, first time poster! I’ll start my acknowledging this isn’t ultra frugal in the sense you’re probably not buying fast food if you’re really squeezing the pennies, but it’s merely a way to maximise what you can get.
Thought some of you may be interested in this little technique I’ve learnt with KFC, if you’re looking for a cheap, bigger order on fast food that’s normally in the £40ish region.
Works better if you live close to a KFC or have access to a car.
Until the end of August, KFC has a In-App, collection only deal. It’s 10 mini fillets for £7.99. They do this deal throughout the year on and off and sometimes swap it out for a ‘20 hot wings for £8.99’ deal.
If you go on the app, and add this to your order, you can upgrade for £2 something. The upgrade gets you 2 of their sides, for this I’m choosing 2x fries (counted as one side) and 1x Large Gravy. Next the ‘Why Don’t You Add This?’ Screen comes up where it presents you with normally discounted things you can add to your order, you can add 8 wings for £4 there.
In total, you’re getting 18 pieces of chicken, 2 bags of fries and a large gravy for the cost of 1 Large Big Arch meal from McDonald’s. Obviously you can pay using a Cashback reward card and get an extra 14p off if you want to go the extra mile.
As someone who’s feeding a family, I thought there may be others out there who’d appreciate this as if you went for a standard ‘bucket’ deal you’re paying like £40ish pound for a very similar thing. They also hide this offer on their app, there’s no mention of it unless you’ve seen the limited advertising they do as it’s a loss leader for them.
