McDonald’s 30 Days, 30 Deals Is Back This November… and there’s a $1 Big Mac!

There’s something about a trip to Maccas that never really gets old. Whether it’s grabbing a quick lunch between meetings, stopping in on a road trip, or treating the family to an easy dinner when nobody can be bothered cooking, McDonald’s has been both mine and a lot of Kiwis favourite for generations. If, like me, you’ve always loved a good Maccas run, November is shaping up to be a month worth watching.

McDonald’s New Zealand’s 30 Days, 30 Deals promotion is back for November 2026!

The promotion is bringing a different deal on each day of the month through the MyMacca’s app. November has delivered some great Maccas deals in the past, and this year looks set to give bargain hunters plenty of reasons to get excited. With food prices still putting pressure on household budgets, finding ways to enjoy the things you love without spending a fortune is always a win.

A $1 Big Mac? Yes, Really!

Let's start with the deal that's likely to get everyone's attention. On Tuesday, 3 November, you can get a Big Mac for just $1! That's right.  McDonalds iconic burger, with its special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles and onions for a buck!  A dollar doesn't go very far these days. It might buy you a banana, an egg or a packet of instant noodles, but on 3 November, it could buy you a Big Mac.  It's the sort of offer that makes you want to mark the date in your calendar.

If you've been craving a Big Mac but haven't fancied paying full price, this could be the perfect excuse. Just make sure you've got the MyMacca's app ready and check the offer's terms before heading out, as promotional deals can have specific redemption requirements.

One more point, the $1 Big Mac is only available via Mobile Order and Pay in the Maccas App, so you will have to order and pay in the app to redeem this.

What Other Deals Could Be on the Menu in November?

The beauty of a month-long promotion is that there's something new to look forward to. While daily offers can change and we can't guarantee every deal in advance, the advertised calendar includes some tempting examples for November.

Think $7 or $8 Combos, and deals combining favourites such as McNuggets, cheeseburgers and Big Macs. There are also likely to be offers featuring multiple burgers or combos, along with opportunities to earn bonus points or save on eligible app orders. The exact offer will depend on the day, so it's worth checking the MyMacca's app every day, as today's deal won’t be available tomorrow.

Of course, the best deal is the one that suits what you actually want to eat. If you're a Big Mac fan, 3 November is the date to remember. If chicken burgers or McNuggets are more your thing, keep an eye out for those offers throughout the month.

A Cheaper Office Lunch? That's Worth Celebrating

Let's be honest: buying lunch while you're at work can get expensive surprisingly quickly. A café sandwich, a takeaway meal and a drink can easily add up, particularly if you're buying lunch several times a week. That's why a genuinely good fast-food deal can make a difference.

If you're heading into work and need to grab lunch, the 30 Days, 30 Deals promo could make lunch considerably cheaper than your usual. Some of the combo deals we’ve had a preview of will be a far more affordable alternative than a full-price lunch elsewhere. 

And if you're working from home, the same idea applies. Instead of paying full price out of habit, take a quick look at the app before placing your order. A little planning can leave more money in your pocket for the rest of the week.

Who Says Takeaways Have to Be a Weekend Treat?

One of my favourite things about a promotion like this is that it gives you a reason to break the routine. Why wait until Friday or Saturday to grab a takeaway? A random Tuesday dinner can be just as enjoyable, especially when you've had a long day and the thought of cooking, washing dishes and tidying up feels like too much effort.

For families, the right offer could make an impromptu Maccas dinner more affordable. Rather than automatically saving takeaway for a special occasion, you might find a deal that makes a midweek treat fit your budget. It's also a handy way to give everyone a night off cooking without turning dinner into a big expense.

Naturally, the value depends on what you order, how many people you're feeding and whether the offer suits your family. But with different deals appearing throughout November, there should be plenty of opportunities to see whether one works for you.

Don't Miss Out on the November Deals

The important thing to remember is that these offers are time-sensitive. A deal available on the 1st November will be replaced by something completely different the next day, and some promotions may have limits or specific conditions. Download or open the MyMacca's app, check the deal of the day, and make sure you understand the terms before ordering.

Our tip? Put Tuesday, 3 November in your diary for that $1 Big Mac. It's a standout offer and a great reminder that you don't always have to pay full price for your favourite things.  So download the app now to be ready!

Whether you're looking for a cheaper work lunch, a quick meal on the way home or an excuse to treat the family midweek, McDonald's 30 Days, 30 Deals is worth keeping an eye on. After all, saving money doesn't have to mean missing out!  Sometimes it just means knowing when to order your Maccas!
