Get a free McDonald’s burger!
--
TLDR: A quick introduction to freemcdburger.com. If you don’t care and just need to provide feedback, click here. Use this sample receipt if needed.
Ok, it’s not really free. McDonald’s has a “Buy 1 Get 1 Free Quarter Pounder” offer if you complete a short survey using the receipt from a previous visit. Sounds easy right?
The problem
Each McDonald’s receipt contains a 26-digit(?!?!) code which is awfully painful to enter in their website at mcdvoice.com. Depending on your keyboard ninja skills, it could take a while to enter this code on a phone.
The solution
I built a tiny tool that will scan the receipt, use Optical Character Recognition(OCR) to retrieve the survey code and pre-fill the code in the McDonald’s survey site to get you started. That’s it!
What makes this special?
- You don’t need to download an app, all you need is a web browser
- The receipt is processed on your device, it is not sent anywhere.
- You can give away this free burger to someone in need!
That’s all folks. If you find this useful, please share with others.
