Forget hunting for vouchers or waiting for special deals.
This clever method uses something you already receive: your McDonald's receipt.
As the finance guru herself explains: "when you get a receipt, you'll notice that there's a website address at the top where you can fill in a satisfaction survey."
The process is refreshingly straightforward.

Simply head to that website and fill in the 12-digit code that's on your receipt.
You'll then be taken to a "super quick" customer satisfaction survey, which she assures takes "about two minutes to complete."
The reward for your two minutes?
A "special voucher" that is nothing short of golden.
This voucher allows you to order a Big Mac plus a medium fries or a side salad for only £2.99.
And if the Big Mac isn't calling your name, don't worry - "there's also alternatives you can choose from, like the McNugget meal, a McChicken sandwich or a Filet-O-Fish."
McDonald's launches brand-new burger featuring never-before-seen sauce
As @thefinancegurl demonstrates, all you need to do is "show your QR code at the till and state what your preference is."
For her recent trip, she opted for "a McChicken sandwich with medium fries, and I got tap water, which is completely free.
'So my entire meal came to only £2.99."
It's a brilliant way to enjoy a satisfying meal without stretching your budget.
McDonald's receipt
So next time you're at McDonald's, remember to grab that receipt - it could be your ticket to a fantastic deal.
The video, which was shared on 8 June, has received 407k views and 214 comments as many rush to share their thoughts.

I have 20 years of excellent experience and have worked my way up the ladder across three different companies to be in a mid-senior role. I know I already have most of the skills needed to do the jobs I'm applying for, but I'm still not even getting interviews. How can I make my application stand out in such a competitive job market? Clare, via email A) It's frustrating to have such solid experience and still feel like you're being overlooked for positions. You clearly have a lot to offer, so the issue likely isn't your capability – it's about how your application is landing in a very crowded market. First, take a fresh look at your CV and cover letter. Are you tailoring them to each specific role, highlighting the exact language and priorities from the job description? Hiring managers often scan applications quickly, so make sure your most relevant achievements and leadership skills are front and centre.

Is your LinkedIn profile up to date? Posting and engaging with content in your industry is increasingly important. If you're applying for jobs mostly online and not hearing anything back, try to expand your approach. Reach out directly to hiring managers and named recruiters on job adverts. You could also speak with a trusted recruiter or book a session with a career coach to get some objective feedback on your CV and covering letter. Sometimes, just a slight shift in how you frame your achievements and skills can unlock new opportunities. Good luck!

M&S to make huge change by launching first-of-its-kind store perfect for holiday goers and it opens in just HOURS
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) M&S is making a huge change by opening a first-of-its-kind store that is perfect for Brits jetting off on their summer holidays. The home of Percy Pig will open its first ever airside store at Heathrow Airport on Monday, July 21. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 1 A mock image shows how the new M&S store will be laid out It means jet setters will be able to stock up on iconic M&S food after going through security. From tomorrow, holiday goers will be able to pick up sandwiches and sweets from its new branch at Gate A, located within Terminal 5 of the busy airport. Later this week a second store will open at Gate B, which will sell gifts such as its popular biscuit tins as well as prepackaged food. Alex Freudmann, managing director at M&S Food said: "This launch builds on the success of our well-established landside airport stores across the UK and allows us to serve customers even closer to their departure gates. "Whether travellers are looking for breakfast, lunch or dinner, or a British gift to take home, we're aiming to bring some M&S magic to their journey through Heathrow.' The high street stalwart already has seven branches across popular UK airports, including Luton and Manchester. But this is the first time flyers can get their hands on its products after passing through security and waiting to board the plane. It is not the first time in recent months that M&S has spruced up its store estate. Last Autumn it opened its first ever standalone clothes store in London's Battersea Power Station. The new store features a curated selection of women's and men's clothing, focusing on premium lines and beauty products. Shoppers race to M&S as one of their best selling items which is a mum-essential viral are scanning for just 63 PENCE Earlier this year, the brand also said it would open six Foodhalls across London and revamp nearly a dozen sites after committing £90million to the investment. It builds on the previous £30million investment made last year, and the extra £50million investment in stores across the Northwest of England. The brand-new Foodhalls will open their doors in Covent Garden, Leytonstone, Clapham Common, Putney, New Malden and Fulham Broadway. They will be completed "over the next few years, pending planning permisison", according to M&S. What else is new at M&S Elsewhere, M&S said it would dish out treats to millions of customers as a thank you following its cyber attack. Over 1.8 million customers will receive birthday gifts this month, and those who missed out in May and June will also be rewarded. Eager customers will be able to choose between one of two of M&S' bestselling food products. These could include Percy Pigs or a Swiss Truffle Assortment Box, a Bouquet of Flowers or bottle of Prosecco, a punnet of Grapes or a packet of Outrageously Chocolatey Round Biscuits. Sparks birthday treats were among the casualties of the cyber attack for those who had a birthday over the spring and early summer. It comes after M&S is picking up the pieces from a vicious cyber attack which occurred in April and cost the firm £300million in lost profits. For weeks the beloved retailer was unable to process online orders and store shelves were left bare. Last week, three teenagers and a woman were arrested in the UK as part of an investigation into attacks, which also targeted Co-op and Harrods. They have since been released on bail.
