I appreciate these hacks. But Matt, I do hope you're not eating as much fast food as it looks like! I want you to stay healthy. Plus, even with hacks, fast food isn't all that cheap any more. Sometimes it's a better, tastier meal by supporting your local mom and pop restaurants.

As a former OTR trucker who hauled loads from food factories, I can tell you there are many products that are made on a production line but are packaged in different corporate customers containers. They get an order for a run, from different customers, and when they meet the production order numbers, they just change the packaging. It's cheaper than resetting the machines. Kraft cheese is an prime example.

As someone who works next to a Panera, the sip deal even at the monthly price of $12 is worth it. Have 3 drinks a month and it’s paid for itself. 👍🏼

Your Favorite Starbucks Barista Here 💚☕️ 💚 Good call on the Shaken Espresso!! By default you’ll probably get less beverage because when we shake it, it foams up and leaves less room for the milk. Here’s how to order that will make the baristas happy too (we get tired of shaking that shaker all day long 😂) “May I get a Grande Iced Shaken Espresso, sub Vanilla for the Classic and you don’t have to shake it.” Now, it’s up to you if you want to forgo that extra shot of espresso that you’re gonna get for free, because it automatically comes with 3 shots instead of two in a regular Grande Iced Vanilla Latte, but if you don’t want 3 shots of espresso (they each have 75 mg of caffeine and by comparison a Grande cup of brewed coffee at Starbucks has a little over 300 mg 😮), you can say “just 2 shot of espresso please.” It’s as easy as that! As always a wonderful video with so many great ideas and tips!! 👍🏻

[@ImOnyxRS]

The pizza hut reminded me of what I used to do with my roommate in college. They had a $10 coupon on every receipt if you answered a quick survey, and they had a $10 box combo that had a medium pizza, bread sticks, and cinnamon sticks. We'd answer the survey to get a fresh $10 coupon and only be out the delivery fee and tip for us both to eat. The location eventually stopped honoring the $10 coupon for everyone, because I assume we were not the only people to figure out that trick. Edit: The Panera Sip club thing - I work right next to a Panera so I maintain membership to it, but decided to cut back on caffeine so I went to cancel it after a couple months and it offered to lower the cost to $3/month for 3 months. I kept it since I would only need to use it twice a month to make that worth it but after the 3 months were up I forgot about it for a month and then went to cancel it again - same offer. $3/month for 3 months. I have now done this 3 times. Every time that deal expires, wait a month and go to the cancel subscription page and you'll get a 75% discount for 3 more months.

[@Erin_GB]

Mine for Panda Express is that you can add a third entree to a combo for $1.50 (at least at the location I go to). So, if you have three people, order two 3-item combos and give the third person the two extra entrees and 1/3 of each combo's side (I can never eat all of my rice). This also worked well when my kids were small, because I would just order the third item and give a child the extra item plus a little rice, instead of ordering a whole kid's meal. The third entree comes packaged in a small separate container, which makes it convenient.

[@thedealguy]

Wow this is a good one! Thank you Erin

[@karenmitchell6814]

I was going to leave this exact same comment. There are 3 of us that have done this for years! There is always enough rice or noodles for 3 people.

[@musicislove90]

I'm so curious about the dupe for Cane's sauce cause I love that stuff 😆 feel free to update us with your thoughts!

[@Calamity_Jack]

The problem with dupe food (IMHO of course) is that they're sometimes not quite as tasty or as high quality as the originals. For example, I got the Walmart Chik-Fil-A dupe sauce and it didn't taste like Chik-Fil-A sauce at all. And I've done burger hacks before only to find that the meat patty I got with the cheaper burger was significantly thinner and smaller in diameter than the original burger. That being said, I'm all for saving money, so I say follow your gut. (Pun intended!)

[@annalouise1217]

One of my favorite McDonald's hacks is to use the "buy one get one free" breakfast sandwich offer in the app. I choose two sausage biscuits, but add a few butters, jams, and a cutlery set under the condiments tab. They are free. I remove the sausage patties from the biscuits to eat separately, then add butter and jelly to the biscuits. It's a much more satisfying meal than simply eating sausage on a biscuit. I end up with 2 buttered and jellied biscuits and 2 sausage patties for $1.99.

[@sdahl5176]

Hi, I love your video as always! You rock! Thank you for the great tips. I read through all of the comments bc I wanted to see what other people listed as their favorite hacks like you asked. First, let me apologize on behalf of the human race. I'm so sorry for some of the snarky or unkind things that people say. You do an excellent job and don't deserve it. Second, people either don't pay attention or they're not all that smart or they're making assumptions and you know what they say about doing that... So I'm going to say a few things that I bet you feel but are too nice to say and that I'm usually too nice to say, but I'm just so upset on your behalf. Ok, to the people out there who said you don't eat fast food, good for you. You're healthier and better than the rest of us. You don't need to be holier than thou and make him or the rest of us feel bad writing it in the comments. He's just trying to help people that do eat out save some money and earn his own with the video! And to those telling everyone to learn to cook, etc. This man is NOT telling everyone to eat out everyday. He's just trying to help people save WHEN they do buy something. Also to those telling him what to do about his diet choices, just bc he takes a bite of something to make a good video doesn't mean he's eating everything he shows you, so stop criticizing him please. For those being ugly about the peanuts, he did make comments about not to be abusive or excessive with it and that the employees didn't seem to mind. He didn't say go take all you can carry or steal tons of nuts. For those criticizing his deals or saying it's not enough money or it's too much trouble, really? You seriously have to take the time to write a comment saying that?!?! He's just trying to help people save money. If you don't like it, just be nice and keep it to yourself. But for some people that one or two dollars or whatever amount for a family of 4 or 6 quickly adds up, especially if they eat out 2 or 3 times a month. For example, save a dollar for each member of the family of 6 =$6. Then say they eat out 1 time per weekend for the month, 4 x $6 =$24. That means he's just saved them $24 a month or $288 a year. And that is just with a one dollar deal, imagine it with the higher amounts! So give the man his due and show him some appreciation and respect. Please. Why can't everyone just think about how you'd feel if someone wrote this stuff about or to you? Just try to be kind is all I'm saying. And for everyone who said something good or complimentary or positive, you are awesome! Way to go! You probably made his day.

[@hellannthefirst5529]

For Wendys...instead of ordering the Single w/cheese...order the double stack and add lettuce,tomatoes & onion (modify any condiments as desired). There is no charge for this and though the bun is a little smaller...the meat is the same amount. Its much cheaper.

These are great for saving money so use them. Please don't save money on the tip. I no longer deliver but did for a long time. The delivery people work harder than many people think. It's not just riding around in your car. Collecting the food - finding the address often with unclear instructions from the customer and trying to track them down. You have to hustle to make money and you are paying high gas prices plus wear and tear on your car. If you can't afford to tip go pick it up. TIP !!!! Thank you.😃

I have purchased both the Aldi Red Bag Chicken and the Sam's Club Chic fila knock offs. In my opinion the Aldi chicken doesn't taste anything like Chic fila. It has good flavor as far a fried chicken patty goes, but it doesn't compare to Chic fila. The Sam's Club knockoff have a very briny/pickle-y flavor it can be little overpowering especially if you aren't a fan of pickles. I always get extra pickles on my chic fila sandwich so I don't mind it but I can definitely tell the difference between the Sam's Club knockoff and the OG.

Agreed about the Sam's Club knock-off. I had the nuggets, and they were exactly as you described (and I always get extra pickles in my sandwich too). Tasted nothing like Chick-fil-A, and I was so disappointed.

Thank you for sharing Matt! My big family appreciate any and all food hacks.

Ordering kids meal sizes is sometime a good way to get more for less...kids be eating good on some of these menus...We are in Texas where they have Whataburger. The kids meals serve entree, milk or soda, fries or apple slices and a cookie for around $6!

If you don't have a Sam's Club membership. Tyson also makes a Chik-fila style Chicken Sandwich and Spicy Chicken Sandwich. At Kroger affiliates they were $8.49 for a box of four. While the Sam's Club 10 ct box is $19.95 so Sam's Club is cheaper over all but I know the membership costs can be tough for some people. The Tyson brand Sandwiches taste amazing and are quick and easy to make.

That Chipotle burrito idea is absolute genius. I usually only get a veggie soft taco but think I’ll go yiur advise route next time I go there. Thanks!

[@sunshine72699]

Heads up on the Sam's dupe for nuggets! They have a very strong pickle taste, which I know chick fill a uses pickles in their marinade but you can super taste it in the nuggets. I'm not a fan of pickles so heads up!

I would love to find a money, saving hack for Jersey Mike’s. Love your videos, Matt.

Fast food hack for Chueys Tex Mex- even though it’s not on their menu anymore..you can still get the appetizer sample for around $12 includes queso, a scoop of quac, 4 flautas, 4 - 1/2 tortilla nachos and 2 quesadillas. We would get 2 of these, plus of course the chips and salsa/jalapeño ranch dip and feed our family of 5 (3 teenagers) for around $30…including tip (if we do waters)

[@keiths1]

Our biggest fast food hack is that we order kids meals at Culvers for everyone in the family, including adults. You get a cheeseburger, sensible size order of fries, a drink, all for half the price of an adult combo. AND you get a free scoop of frozen custard with the kids meal. Just tear the custard voucher off the kids meal bag, and order your free scoop in the restaurant. Or if you are in the drive-thru, tell the employee taking your order that you would like your custard included with the order at the drive thru window. I don't know what the dollar amount saved is, but its significant.

[@CountryHavenDairyGoats]

They also love the military and give 10% off

[@norakelley184]

YES WE DO THIS TOO!! 🎉🎉🎉 lol

[@spankynater4242]

Exactly, kids' meals are very sufficient getting-filled-up wise.

[@vickiesmith9562]

you can get the flavor of the day if you want

[@IntuneGames]

BK coupon codes from a few years ago still working. Just tell the person at front counter or drive thru code: 6355 for a $4.99/$5.00 whopper meal. Still working as of today.

[@adeleaiken8364]

Wendy’s has a chilli hack that’s not on the menu. You can order a “bucket” or maybe they call it a box, of chili for about $2-$3 cheaper than ordering the same amount of chilli in the large cups. I don’t know why they don’t put it on the menu. It’s equivalent o 4 large chili’s - maybe a bit more

This man is genius - in this economy i need this guy to survive

[@bigal4101985]

Great video! I really appreciate the research, thought, and intent of your videos.

[@mariebarger8631]

Oh wow. I have seen these videos, food, but never watched. I am very disappointed in myself. As usual you are the best! Thank you.

[@thedealguy]

Thank you for taking the time to watching this one Marie!

[@solitarymind82]

Thank you so, so much for this video. I mentioned the McDonald's hack of fresh eggs to my husband and he tried it out today. He says a huge thanks to you! Thank you, thank you so much.

[@eunicel5964]

Brilliant tips. Money is super tight and this really helps when it is a big deal to save that money and still be able to treat our families every once in a while

[@tamarasbargains]

Good video and tips. I quit Chipotle because they are so picky on how to roll the burrito😂 when I quit and did my burritos at home, that’s when I learned😂😂😂

[@acatismansbestfriend5719]

Cane' savings for us, feeding 2 grown meals is the 25 finger family pack. You have to make fries at home but it sure feeds 3 people and has a lot leftover. It would be great for families

[@pittroadsixzeroseven]

Matt I love all your hacks. Thank you for taking the time to share them. Now I just need to remember them. lol

[@ElisaAvigayil]

My Chipotle hack is that I order the Kid's Make Your Own meal for $5.95. I request sofritas, 2 soft tacos, brown rice, and corn salsa with fruit. I get the plain milk and my kids have it with cereal the next day. It's vegan (for me), low in calories, I'm not overeating, it's balanced and healthy, and it's much cheaper than any of the adult menu items. The kids' quesadilla is even cheaper at $5.50, but I don't eat the cheese.

[@ATCCPO]

Happy Meal hack prices didn't match, since the 6 piece Happy Meal starts at $5.59. Ends up being $5.98 before taxes, but still cheaper than $6.79 for the 6 piece regular meal! Great advice.

[@carolsummers8734]

As soon as Illinois raised minimum wage, most drive thru restaurants here hiked prices $1 on combo meals.

[@matthewrude9753]

Hey there! Myself, my wife, and our son watch all of your videos. They have to avoid gluten and would love to see a “Top Gluten Free Buys” edition! Keep up the great work!!

[@thedealguy]

Thanks Matthew!! Will keep that in mind for the next one

[@jenniferschrader3188]

Yesss that would be great!!

[@CountryHavenDairyGoats]

I love that idea, me too ❤️

[@crea6042]

😮 would love that!!

[@SHENworks]

I :::counts::: fourth that request!

[@RusstheTroubadour]

In my area some McDonald's locations have a 6 piece McNugget priced less than a 4. And two 6 piece nuggets are priced less than a 10 piece.

[@gsfriends5340]

Oh my god the " steamed bun" hack....love it thank you. My local McDonald's is notorious for giving cold fries, now I always order with no salt so they have to make a new batch.

[@darklordrowan6152]

Honestly great video, no sign up for this deal, etc. Just straight to the deals and easy to understand :D

[@scottholmes7069]

At McDonalds, out local as a 4 piece by one get 1 for $1. The price for the combo would be 2.79. Order 3 order for a total of 4.58. You get 12 nuggets rather than 10 for 4.29

[@pinschrunner]

I have not eaten fast food in 20 years. I did it by absolutely pretending it did not exist so that I could t even consider it. Wow, it is so expensive, I can eat organic every single meal for that price.

[@jozeedz9549]

Love your fast food hacks. I always forward these vids to my college age grandsons & hubby (Taco bell fan)

[@levelup2223]

You are the G.O.A.T for these gems! Thank you😁🙌🏾 saw this pop up in my feed caught my attention New subbie

[@MsMilkytheclown1]

Steamed buns for the win! Thanks Matt!

[@shannondore]

No wonder McDonald's filet-o-fish tastes so good, the buns steamed. I never realised that. Defiantly going to get my next burger like that. Thanks for all the tips.😊

[@monicaant.1422]

For the Raising Cane's I get the four piece combo and instead of coleslaw you can tell them for an extra bread, sauce or chicken 👍 I always ask for extra bread and they don't charge you extra !

[@terrib627]

You can also sub extra fries for the cole slaw. I do not like their slaw.

[@nicma87]

@@terrib627 Yes I do that every time.

[@chrissyellem7397]

I stopped eating Cane's last May and lost 50 lbs last year. I finally realized it's deep fried foods and fries that was keeping me fat.

[@lindaallen8800]

Wonder if I can order three piece and get slaw instead of bread

[@candyboyer]

Wow it's a good thing I don't eat out much, prices are nuts! Great video Matt--

[@RoyalMasterpiece]

This is needed now more than ever. Thank you.

[@grandpasutubechannel]

Here's one for ya-- at subway ask for a breakfast sandwich at any time. 8 to 9 bucks gets you a foot long with double protein, the meat and the eggs and any veggie topping and mayo etc. Steak ham or bacon for meat is included as well as cheese of your choice. I've found if they don't have enough eggs later in the day they'll usually just add extra meat. Figure 11 to 13 bucks for a double meat non breakfast sandwich and you'll save 5 somolians or so each double protein sandwich. I do it all the time and it works.

[@MustangSally7259]

Yikes! I don't eat fast food.....good luck y a'all! ❤👍
