McDonald’s is giving away free McNuggets meal this month—here’s how to get yours

If you’re a fan of crispy, golden McNuggets (and let’s be honest, who isn’t?), September just got a whole lot tastier.

McDonald’s is rolling out a deal that’s sure to make your inner child—and your wallet—do a happy dance.

For a limited time, you can snag a free 10-piece Chicken McNuggets Meal every single day. Yes, you read that right.

The deal is tied to an exclusive partnership, and while it sounds almost too good to be true, it’s very real.


From September 16 through October 5, McDonald’s is teaming up with Amazon to offer a free 10-piece Chicken McNuggets Meal—including medium fries and a medium drink—every day for 21 days.

That’s potentially 210 nuggets if you play your cards right! The catch?

This deal is exclusively for Amazon Prime members, and you’ll need to use your complimentary Grubhub+ membership (which comes with Prime) to claim your daily meal.

Here’s how to get in on the action:​

  1. Be an Amazon Prime Member: If you’re not already, you can sign up for a free trial or join for a monthly fee. (Tip: If you’re a regular online shopper, the perks often pay for themselves.)
  2. Activate your Grubhub+ Membership: This is free with Prime. If you haven’t activated it yet, just log in to your Amazon account and follow the prompts.
  3. Order through Amazon, the Amazon Shopping App, or Grubhub: Add the 10-piece Chicken McNuggets Meal to your cart. The cost will be automatically removed at checkout as a reward credit.
  4. Meet the $20 Minimum: You’ll need to hit a $20 order minimum to unlock the free meal. So, consider adding a few extra treats or invite a friend to join in.
  5. One free meal per day: The deal resets daily, so you can indulge again tomorrow (and the next day, and the next…).

This isn’t just a random act of nugget generosity. The promotion is timed to coincide with Amazon’s Prime Big Deal Days, a major shopping event.

By partnering with Amazon and Grubhub, McDonald’s is hoping to lure hungry shoppers and reward loyal Prime members.

It’s a win-win: you get free food, and they get your attention (and maybe a few extra fries in your cart).
