The end of summer may be a disappointment, but Burger King has offers to soften the blow.
The fast-food chain is celebrating students’ return to school by offering a free King Jr. meal from August 12-25.
There are many menu items to fulfill the main, side, beverage and treat components of the package. Kids can choose between a double cheeseburger, 4-piece chicken nuggets, 6-piece chicken nuggets, cheeseburger and hamburger as a main dish. For a side, customers can choose between French fries, onion rings, have-sies (a side dish that is half French fries and half onion rings) or applesauce. Additionally, the kids’ menu includes a beverage, such as apple juice or lemonade, and a treat in the form of a toy or chocolate chip cookie.
You don’t have to be a student to take advantage of this offer. All rewards members are eligible for the free King Jr. Meal when they make a $10 purchase.
On August 8, BK announced that their $5 Your Way Meal will be available through October.
The $5 offer, which first launched on June 10, consists of a customer’s choice of a Whopper Jr., Chicken Jr. or Bacon Cheeseburger. Along with the sandwich, they receive 4 chicken nuggets, French fries and a soft drink.
“We will now extend the $5 Your Way Meal offer into October because we feel it works perfectly for the business and we believe customers love it,” said Josh Kobza, CEO of Restaurant Brands International, during a quarterly earnings call.
