Customer's insane hack to save $3 on McDonald's meal: ‘The math ain't mathing'
A woman has discovered a simple way to score a Happy Meal at McDonald's for nearly $3 cheaper than the original price. A Macca's customer named Dani took to social media to ask if someone could explain why a $5.95 Cheeseburger Happy Meal from the fast food giant was cheaper than buying a small Cheeseburger meal for $8.85. 'It's exactly the same thing but you get a toy with the Happy Meal,' she says in a TikTok video. 'The math ain't mathing,' the 36-year-old, who posts on TikTok under the name @danisaidyes, says. 3 A woman has discovered a simple way to score a Happy Meal at McDonald's for nearly $3 cheaper than the original price. TikTok/@danisaidyes At the drive-through at her local McDonald's, the podcaster asks the employee how much a Cheeseburger Happy Meal would set her back. The worker confirms it is $5.95. Dani then asks how much a small Cheeseburger meal costs, and the employee replies that it is $3 more expensive.
