\nLike FREE food? Try our favorite fast food apps!\ud83d\udcf1<\/em><\/p>\n Looking for free food<\/a> apps or how to get free food with no money? While no app gives you everything for free, plenty offer sign-up perks, freebies, and great coupons, especially fast food apps! If you\u2019re not using them, you\u2019re missing out \u2013 BIG TIME!<\/p>\n To make it easy, we polled the team and rounded up the best apps<\/strong> to help you score hot deals and free bites. \ud83d\udd25<\/p>\n The McDonald\u2019s app is a favorite among the Hip2Save team and readers \u2013 and for good reason! It\u2019s the fastest way to find deals (like $2 Big Macs or free fries with a $3 purchase) and earn free food.<\/p>\n Join the MyMcDonald\u2019s Rewards Program<\/a> and get 100 points for every $1 you spend. Rack up points and redeem them for free items like a McChicken, Hash Browns, or a Cheeseburger. Angela from our team scored a full meal for around $4\u2014check out her tips and more team favorites!<\/p>\n \u201cThe McDonald\u2019s app is a no-brainer! I get two hamburger patties with cheese and a Coke Zero and it\u2019s so much easier to order on the app vs trying to explain to them that I don\u2019t want anything but the meat. AND it\u2019s cheaper to order it that way vs ordering a hamburger and saying no bun or other stuff.\u00a0 I could cash in points and get a Happy Meal plus what is on the screen (shown above) for only $4.18 total .\u201d \u2013\u00a0<\/strong> <\/em>Angela, Hip2Save team<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201c100% best is McDonald\u2019s. Freeeeeee food!!! Do NOT eat anywhere without checking to see if they have an app!<\/em> \ud83d\ude02\u201d \u2013 Paige, Hip2Save team<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cUse their apps. We get a $1 breakfast sandwich every day at McDonald\u2019s. I actually freeze them to eat at another time. McGriddles are so good!\u201d<\/em> \u2013 Shelly, Hip2Save reader The Chick-fil-A app is almost as popular as McDonald\u2019s app, earning you 10 points per $1 spent, and the amount of points you earn goes up with every membership tier. It only takes 200 points to snag FREE fast food<\/strong> like fries, hash browns, or a cookie, and 600 points can score you nuggets!<\/p>\n You\u2019ll also get a free birthday reward<\/strong> and early access to new menu items. Plus, the app makes customizing your order a breeze!<\/p>\n \u201cOn the CFA app they always add in freebies about once a month and you can build points to cash in for sides, drinks, treats or entrees.\u201d<\/em> \u2013 Angela, Hip2Save team<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cThe only fast food app I\u2019ve ever used was Chick-fil-A but I\u2019ve always felt it was really simple to use \u2013 in fact so simple even my kids are able to add their order while I\u2019m driving lol. I think everything is laid out really well, and the additional options are really easy to add on, such as gluten-free buns and adding sauces, etc. It has saved me many times during sports seasons when we\u2019re running late to a game and need food ASAP.\u201d <\/em>\u2013 Sara<\/strong>, Hip2Save team<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Want fast food deals sent straight to your phone? Download the Wendy\u2019s app and join the rewards program. You\u2019ll earn 10 points per $1 spent and unlock instant offers like $1 Crispy Chicken or Bacon Cheeseburgers, $2 off combos, and more.<\/p>\n This app is SO ser-friendly! Check the Offers tab for deals and the Rewards tab to redeem points\u2014200 points gets you free nuggets, fries, or a Frosty, and 300 points scores even bigger freebies. Easy, delicious savings! \ud83e\udd64<\/p>\n \u201cI LOVE that\u00a0Wendy\u2019s app lets you stack deals + reward redemptions (McD\u2019s does not).\u201d <\/em>\u2013 Monica, Hip2save team \u201cDefinitely use the apps. Besides earning points to redeem food, they also always have deals (I\u2019ve used the $3 off mobile order coupon on Wendys a couple of times), give you free birthday deals, and, for me, I tend to be wiser about choosing when I have time to look at the app rather than quickly ordering stuff in the drive-thru. Plus, you can play around with ingredients and often add things to a basic menu item for less than what they charge for a similar item on the menu.\u201d <\/em>\u2013 Peggy, Hip2Save reader The Burger King app is one of our top picks for scoring free food and deals. We\u2019ve been testing out tons of apps over the past year, and BK\u2019s is one of the most user-friendly, regularly updated, and packed with offers\u2014like free upgrades, family bundles, and sandwich discounts.<\/p>\n Royal Perks members earn 10 Crowns per $1 spent. Just $25 in spending can earn you free hash browns, with even better rewards as you go. Members also get free size upgrades and 2X Crowns during their birthday month. Even with Burger King\u2019s higher prices, this app gets the crown from us. \ud83d\udc51<\/p>\n If you like to eat a footlong for lunch, give the Subway app a try. Hip2Save\u2019s Liz uses this app and hasn\u2019t paid full price for food since signing up! Right now, all new Subway MVP Rewards members get 250 points just for joining!<\/p>\n When you\u2019re a member, you receive at least 10 points for every $1 spent and 5% more if you order through the app or online. When you hit 400 points, you can cash them in for a $2 discount on any menu item. All members receive special offers plus a birthday freebie, and if you spend $400 or more per year, you\u2019ll earn FREE chips with a purchase on Fridays!<\/p>\n \u201cI love the Subway app! It\u2019s super easy to use promo codes, customize your order, schedule the order, AND earn and apply rewards. If you\u2019ve earned one, they will have the option to apply it right there in the cart, no need to look around the app to see if you have one or not.\u201d<\/em> \u2013 Jenna, Hip2Save team \u201cSubway is another one that is great! It\u2019s super easy to customize your order and add promo codes. You also earn points that can be redeemed for $2 off your purchase!\u201d<\/em> \u2013 Chelsey, Hip2Save team<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Love Starbucks<\/a>? Download the app and join Starbucks Rewards to earn points, aka stars, with every purchase. Plus, the app makes it easy to try our money-saving Starbucks hacks<\/a>, too! You\u2019ll earn 2 stars per $1 when you pay in the app, or 1 star per $1 when you scan and pay in-store.<\/p>\n Members also get perks like free refills on coffee and tea, a birthday freebie, and the ability to redeem Stars for free drinks and food.<\/p>\n Plus, you can also link your Delta SkyMiles account and earn miles when you purchase from Starbucks!<\/p>\n If you like an affordable pizza or an order of delicious Crazy Bread, download the Little Caesars app. Not only can you skip the register by ordering ahead, but you\u2019ll see ALL the best offers of the day displayed on the app!<\/p>\n \u201cThe Little Caesars app has deals listed you can add to your order and it is super convenient to order ahead and then just grab it from the case when you walk in.<\/em>\ud83d\ude4c\u201c<\/em> \u2013 Amber, Hip2Save team<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Love free fast food? So do Whataburger patrons! Download the restaurant\u2019s app and become a Whataburger Rewards member. You\u2019ll receive a FREE Whataburger for joining. You\u2019ll also earn points with every purchase.<\/p>\n Earn enough and you can redeem them for your favorite food items! Plus, the app makes it easy to customize your order or see deals! No wonder the Whataburger by me always seems to have a line out the door! \ud83d\ude97\ud83d\ude99\ud83d\ude97\ud83d\ude99<\/p>\n If you live near a Dutch Bros. and like their coffee, download their app to start earning rewards. It\u2019s easy to collect points and cash them in for a free drink of your choice! This app is a favorite of Hip2Save\u2019s Shane because it\u2019s so easy to use. He says it\u2019s super simple to accrue points to get more drinks!<\/p>\n Craving pizza? The Domino\u2019s app offers great deals and rewards<\/a>! Members earn 10 points for every $5 spent and redeem for freebies like Bread Bites (20 points) or a Medium 2-topping Pizza (60 points). Plus, track your delivery and unlock exclusive coupons! \ud83c\udf55<\/p>\n Papa John\u2019s<\/a> is another must-have app! You\u2019ll earn 1 point per $1 spent and get $2 in Papa Dough for every 15 points. If you order often, these apps are the key to free pizza and big savings. \ud83d\udcb0<\/p>\n Another one of the apps that gives you free food when you sign up is the Taco Bell App. My coworker, Monica, says the fast food chain has some useful mobile offers. In fact, the restaurant drops new deals every Tuesday! Get access to these deals by downloading the app and joining the Taco Bell Rewards program<\/a>.<\/p>\n With each purchase, you\u2019ll earn points that you redeem for more freebies! Plus, every once in a while, Taco Bell offers up the chance to buy a Taco Pass<\/a> which gets you a taco every day for a month for only $10. If you have the app, you\u2019ll be one of the first people to know about the deal! \ud83c\udf2e<\/p>\n \u201cI get a free item every month. And so much easier to order in the app.\u201d<\/em> \u2013 Valerie, Hip2Save reader<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n If you find yourself craving a Blue Raspberry Crush or a Cherry Limeade Slush, there is no reason not to download the Sonic app. You\u2019ll snag your favorite drinks and slushies for 50% off every single time you order through the app. You can also customize your food and score app-exclusive offers and deals.\ud83e\udd64<\/p>\n \u201cSonic also has half-priced drinks if you order through the app. And what Angela said is so true, apps make ordering so easy because you can customize everything!\u201d<\/em> \u2013 Monica, Hip2Save team<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cUse the app as sometimes save more or earn stuff, know the days they offer extra deals like half-price cheeseburgers for Sonic on Wednesday.\u201d <\/em>\u2013 Katie, Hip2Save reader<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n When you download the Jimmy John\u2019s app and join the Freaky Fast Rewards program<\/a>, you\u2019ll get an offer for a FREE sandwich after your first order. Plus, the more you order, the more great offers you\u2019ll be rewarded! You can win badges for free food and you\u2019ll also get a sweet deal on your birthday!<\/p>\n \u201cThey just put a Jimmy Johns right by my subdivision and I downloaded their app. After your first purchase, you get a free sandwich. That is actually worth a nice chunk of change because their sandwiches are like $8-$12 each.\u201d<\/em> \u2013 Angela, Hip2Save team<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n Dunkin\u2019 Rewards members get 10 points for every $1 spent. Spend just $15 at Dunkin\u2019 and you can start cashing in on freebies like a FREE 6-Pc. Hash Browns or FREE 3-Count Munchkins. At 250 points, you can get your favorite classic donut, and the rewards get better the more points you earn. This app also gives you exclusive offers and fast food coupons that you won\u2019t find anywhere else!<\/p>\n Plus, if you love birthday freebies, Dunkin\u2019 helps you celebrate. Snag triple points the day before, the day of, and the day after your birthday. \ud83c\udf69<\/p>\n \u201cI like the Dunkin app too. You earn points for free items and activate offers in the offers section.\u201d<\/em> \u2013 Amber, Hip2Save team<\/strong><\/p>\n \u201cLove my Dunkin\u2019 app, I usually go every day anyway and can redeem a free drink on my earliest work day where I clock in at 5:45 am.
