Wed Sep 18 14:30:00 UTC 2024: ## Fast Food Chains Offer Cheeseburger Deals on National Cheeseburger Day

**New York, NY** – Wednesday, September 18th, marks National Cheeseburger Day, and fast food chains across the country are celebrating with discounted cheeseburger deals. These offers come amidst consumer complaints about rising food prices and a shift in consumer preferences towards casual dining options.

**McDonald’s**, the largest fast food chain, is offering a 50-cent double cheeseburger with app orders, a significant discount compared to the original 1948 price. This promotion is part of the chain’s effort to boost sales following a recent slump. Other chains are also participating in the cheeseburger bonanza. **Wendy’s** is offering a junior bacon cheeseburger for just one cent with any other app purchase, while **Burger King** is giving away a free cheeseburger with any $1 purchase through their app. Smaller chains like **Jack in the Box**, **Carl’s Jr.**, and **White Castle** are also offering discounted cheeseburger deals.

**Smashburger** is offering a $5 cheeseburger, typically costing more than $7, with the code “BURGERDAY”. They are also offering a vegetarian alternative and a “bounce-back coupon” for 50% off any burger or sandwich on a future visit.

While these deals are tempting, consumers are increasingly turning away from fast food due to perceived higher prices. **Joe Erlinger**, president of McDonald’s USA, acknowledged this shift and emphasized the importance of avoiding price hikes that negatively impact the company’s reputation.

Despite the deals, fast food chains are facing a challenging landscape, needing to find ways to attract customers back.
