McDonald's is selling its Happy Meals for just £1 but you'd better be quick if you want to feed the kids for a quid.

The fast food retailer is selling it's children's Happy Meals for just £1 (RRP £3.59), saving you £2.59 per meal - but there's a catch - the offer is available for 24 hours only starting today (Monday, 22nd October) and the discount is available to customers who make the order through the McDonald's app only.

@McDonaldsUK Hello there, my app shows there's a £1 Happy Meal offer today for McDonald's Monday, but then says there are no offers available! Is there anything I can do to fix that? pic.twitter.com/7GQ2GwubtDOctober 23, 2023
But some customers. have reported issues using the app to purchase the discounted Happy Meal.
One customer tweeted, "Hello there, my app shows there's a £1 Happy Meal offer today for McDonald's Monday, but then says there are no offers available! Is there anything I can do to fix that?"
To which McDonald's looked into the matter.
Another customer suggested "From everything I’ve seen it seems to be limited to iOS/iPhone users having the issue. Android seems to be fine."
And others are experiencing the same issues on the app, one customer begged, "I’ve got the same problem McDonalds, please can you fix it so we can get the happy meal offer!"
But it looks like the deal might be more beneficial for families who click and collect the order, as another customer pointed out, "What is the point in a £1 happy meal offer if you cap it at one per order and then charge £4 for delivery?"
