Reported test prices

Restaurant Dive, published November 4, 2026, and Fox Business, published November 5, 2026, reported an eight-week test of mix-and-match bundles and fixed-price bundles at about 1,900 US restaurants. CEO Chris Kempczinski described the test on the November 4 earnings call. Fox said it began in the last week of October, across all dayparts, in a handful of regions. No city list was published. No end date was published. About eight weeks from late October is as far as those reports go.

Mix-and-match bundles offer more choice, based on earlier buy-one-add-on offers. Fixed bundles are a set combination at an attractive price. Those words are Kempczinski's, via Restaurant Dive and Fox. They are not a printed dollar.

Reported by AP, November 4

The Associated Press, updated November 4, 2026, wrote that those bundles might feature a McChicken sandwich and small fries for $3.50, for example. The $3.50 figure is AP's example. It uses "might" and "for example." It is not a quote of the CEO and not an official national price. The price table still says prices vary by location.

Reported by Bloomberg, October 30

Bloomberg, October 30, 2026, citing people familiar with the matter, reported a mix-and-match bundle of two items from a lineup that includes the McDouble, the McChicken, six-piece Chicken McNuggets, and fries, for $3.50 to $4 depending on the market. Breakfast options were also said to be in the test. A McDonald's spokesperson said only that the company is testing a variety of meal bundles at select locations. Restaurant Dive and Fox do not print $3.50, $4, or that two-item lineup. Do not treat Bloomberg's six-piece nuggets as the official McValue 4-piece meal deal.

Franchisees representing about 4,000 more restaurants had already added similar bundles. Fox quotes more than 40 percent of the US system when the formal test and those franchisee offers are counted together. Lessons are meant to feed a new national value program in early 2027. No program name and no launch date were published.

CFO Ian Borden had said the $3-and-under menu did not resonate, citing low awareness and inconsistent franchisee execution. US comparable sales were -0.2 percent in the third quarter and turned positive in September. AP said it was the first retreat since early 2025.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • The $4, $5, $8, and $0 rows are on the deals page checked November 10, 2026.
  • The $3.50 example and the $3.50 to $4 range are labeled reported, with the date and the source.

Cons

  • Under $3 items still vary by restaurant.

How it compares

  • McDonald's Quarter Pounder with Cheese Meal

    The Quarter Pounder with Cheese meal is the $8 app offer. This page lists it with the rest of McValue and does not replace that article.

  • McDonald's Big Mac

    The Big Mac page is the sandwich median and calories. It is not the Under $3 Menu and it is not the $5 meal deal.

  • McDonald's Snack Wrap

    New app users can get a free Ranch or Spicy Snack Wrap with a first purchase of $1 or more. The wrap page has the sandwich details.

Is it worth it?

Use $4, starting at $5, the $5 breakfast meal, $8, and $0 fries as the deals page printed them on November 10, 2026. The AP $3.50 McChicken and small fries example, and Bloomberg's $3.50 to $4 two-item range, are reported only. Test bundles say prices vary by location.
