McDonald's Coupon Sale Starts Today!

McDonald's Japan has a new promotion starting today! You can buy ￥20,000($200) worth of coupons for ￥12,000($120). You might be thinking, "Wait a minute. That's a lot of money!" That's true, but think about the savings. That's a 40% savings off the regular menu price! So what coupons do you get? Here is my translation for your benefit:

• 10 type A coupons (redeem for a Quarter Pounder with Cheese, Big Mac, or Ebi Filet-O Meal*)
• 10 type B coupons (redeem for a Double Cheese Burger, Teriyaki Mac Burger, or Chicken Filet-O Meal*)
• 9 Type C coupons (redeem for any Happy Meal or a Cheeseburger Meal*)
• 3 Dessert/Side coupons (redeem for a chocolate sundae, Chicken McNuggets, or medium french fries)
• 3 Shaka Shaka Chicken coupons
• 30 small coffee coupons (hot or iced)
• 4 small cold drink coupons (redeem for any 2: McShake, iced cafe au lait, milk, vegetable juice, apple juice, iced cafe mocha, or iced caramel latte)
• * all meals come with medium drink and medium french fries
• * valid until November 14, 2009
  

That's a lot of food! I think it is worth it although it is a big initial investment. It might be good if you could find someone to split this deal with. It could basically cover one meal for the day for an entire month! Although, I wouldn't suggest eating at McDonald's every day! I do know a few people in Japan that eat there a few days a week and there is enough variety with the coupons. I haven't bought these coupons yet but plan to soon. Will post pictures once I do.
