Plenty of restaurants are giving away burgers for a much lower price on National Cheeseburger Day. Here is a list of places participating in the September 18th deal.
National Cheeseburger Day isn’t just another day — it’s a celebration of one of America’s most enjoyable sandwiches — the cheeseburger.
The cheeseburger first originated in 1924 when Lionel Sternberger slapped a slice of cheese onto a plain beef burger while working at his father’s sandwich shop in Pasadena, California.
Fast forward almost 100 years, and the cheeseburger has its own day on September 18 to commemorate its beginnings.
Luckily for those who enjoy one of the tastiest and greasiest sandwiches ever created, they’ll be able to buy one for a fraction of the price at selected restaurants. Here is a list of where to find the best cheeseburger deals!
McDonald’s
A McDonald’s single cheeseburger usually sells for a rough estimate of about $2 plus tax in selected locations. There are also daily meal deals that include a cheeseburger, fries, and a drink for a decent price of around $10.
However, for National Cheeseburger Day, McDonald’s is giving away double cheeseburgers for just $0.50 each.
To be able to participate in the deal, customers must order the double cheeseburger on their McDonald’s mobile app. There is also no purchase necessary. However, each customer is eligible for only one $0.50 double cheeseburger.
Wendy’s
Getting a cheeseburger for under $1 is almost unheard of, but Wendy’s knows what their customers like. So from September 18 until the 22, they’re giving away Jr. Bacon Cheeseburgers for just one penny… yes, that’s right — one penny.
Customers become eligible for the Wendy’s National Cheeseburger Day deal by ordering through their mobile app.
Burger King
Well, there can only be one crowned king in the business, and Burger King already has their stamp on it. Not only is Burger King offering customers who are part of their Royal Perks rewards program a free cheeseburger, but they’re also giving away the sandwich for a lower price on multiple days.
Though one must be part of the Royal Perks rewards program to be part of BK’s National Cheeseburger Day deals, it’s worth the signup, as the fast food restaurant will be offering a free cheeseburger with any purchase of $1 or more on September 18.
