McDonald’s Cheeseburgers Have Jumped To £1.20 But You Can Get Yours For FREE

McDonald’s recently announced that 99p Cheeseburgers would be no more with its first price increase in 14 years.

As of July 27th McDonald’s has hiked up their prices due to inflation, and it’s not just the famous 99p Cheeseburger that’s been impacted. If you want to grab a value meal, the Cheeseburger has increased by 20p and will now cost you £1.19 instead.

Luckily, not every item has changed price and those that have changed have only changed between 10-20p, but it’s still bad news for major McDonald’s fans who like to grab a budget meal on the regular.

Other items on the menu that have been affected include:

  • McFlurry- 10p price increase
