The expense of dining out has hit an all-time high! And that even includes the usually budget-friendly fast-food restaurants. There was a time when you could easily feed a family of four for under $20 at just about any fast-food restaurant.
However, nowadays, $20 may barely be enough to feed two people. That’s why any meal deal under $5 now is truly a big deal.
 Image: Burger King For a limited time, Burger King is offering a $4.99 Double Cheeseburger Meal at participating locations.
The meal deal is available in-restaurant and online via BK’s site or app.
There is no limit, so a family of four could feast for under $20!
The meal deal includes the following:
Regular prices vary by location.
Double Cheeseburger — reg. $3.99
Value Size Fries — reg. $2.89
Value Size Soft Drink — reg. $1.99
The total value is $8.87, so it’s a savings of nearly $4 — 44% off the regular price.
