OK OOT, it's been a while since we had a devoted fast food thread around here and I think it's time we had a new one.

Day late for this week but Carls is doing the $2.99 Westerns again on Wednesdays. Not available in the app as far as I can tell.

It is available on app. It’s not a deal, they just change the menu price. 2.99 3.49 for the spicy. You can use other deals and this. Praise Carl!


I don’t want to eat to coneys but I must. Not today hopefully next week.

but sometimes it just ain’t feasible


It’s a vibe thing. To flip, or not to flip.


Arby's BOGO free sandwich every weekend. Ad is vague, I guess it varies, and this weekend is the Loaded Italian (??) Not sure when "the weekend" starts, as the countdown timer is already running in the ad. 02 days 12 hours and 49 minutes until it expires, and it arrived in my mailbox at 07:26 MST.

Offer expires 9/7/25 and only valid on online, pick-up-in-store orders. Must have/establish an Arby's Rewards account to redeem. Taxes and tip extra. Excludes modifiers. Not available for delivery or use of gift cards. Offer is one time use only and can only be earned one time per guest. No cash value. Not to be combined with any other coupon or offer.

And a BOGO free deal on a Double Sonic Smasher once per week this month...

And finally (is it?), BOGO for $2 Western Bacon CB (classic or spicy) from Carl.

See app for full terms and details.


They've been running the BOGO for $2 for a long time. Good to hear you can use the app for Western Wednesday now. You couldn't previously. Half price sides deal with it is nice.

This one is the best of the 3 imo. These are normally 6 or 7 bucks I think. Those Arby deals are not for me. The ones they usually have on the deal I never get, I sure don't want 2 of them.


Damn I been tempted by the add for that Arby’s Italian, so much fast food to eat.


I housed some LJS with some KFC wings and Wedges. The wedges were legit horrible, soggy, no crisp to them whatsoever. Wings were okay, not much meat. LJS fish and chicken were good, but they didn’t have packets of tartar sauce just like small cups that there was barely any in, so that was weak. Overall, not a great experience looking back, and the whole thing was pretty shameful as I did it in my car. Probably want to take a good look at my life or just end it in a much faster way than parking lot LJS/KFC.

Anyway, something to think about.

I haven't seen the ad but saw on the sign for the local Arby's that it was back and immediately knew my dining plans for the week were going to change.


REDEEM YOUR FF POINTS WHEN YOU CAN

I just realized I have like 20 McChickens worth of rewards in app

They can take those McChickens away at any time!

Maybe someone can run chatgpt as to the optimum ratio


If it helps, McDonalds usually emails you when points are close to expiring.




I don't remember if this has been posted before, but 7-11 has great freakin' hot dogs. I always get the jumbo Spicy Bite off that rolling grill thing. It's fresh-tasting, spicy, and really juicy and flavorful.

I just get it plain and bring it home, and then put in the toaster oven for a bit, then chop up some fresh onion for it with some Dijon mustard....or maybe some sauerkraut.

Great dog.

Oh, and if you're not taking it home and eating it on the run, make use of the open condiment/toppings bar at your own risk lol.

This is correct. They do email you. Whether you read the email is a choice I leave to you.

mclovin a third purple wachowski option


Been enjoying Charley’s Cheesesteaks lately. Was going to a free standing one, but went crazy today and had one operating out of a Wal Mart and it was still quite good, enjoyed the Cajun fries and I like the lettuce/tomato on the cheesesteak though I understand that might qualify it as a cheesesteak hoagie.


$3 Big Bufords from Rally's today only.

*Offers valid at participating locations. Not valid via third-party delivery services/apps. While supplies last.
