McDonald's: Free Coca-Cola Glass With Large Extra Value Meal Purchase

I'm not sure if this is a regional deal or not but several of the McDonald's in our Chicagoland area are giving a FREE Coca-Cola glass with any Large Extra Value Meal Purchase.

We made a quick drive-thru run this weekend and I ordered a single sandwich and upgraded Rich's to a Large Extra Value Meal and we just split the drink/fries.

A Few Notables

Here are a couple things I ran across in the last few weeks.


I'm not sure if the Happy Meal Toys are always the same nationwide but ours are currently running the My Little Pony promotion. And they are oh so cute! Some people aren't aware that you don't have to buy a Happy Meal to get the toys. You can buy them separately. I've heard them range from $1-$2. I just thought I'd throw this out there in case you were looking for some small, cute stocking stuffers. My sister's are only $1.09 so I'm having her get Kaydi a couple for this very reason. (or pay the extra for a quick meal while you are out shopping.)

Also, one of my reader friends, Ann, said that her McDonald's lets them turn in proof-of-purchases (on bottom of boxes/bags) from Happy Meals for FREE ones. Hers only needs 10, but she said some of the corporate-owned ones take 20. So check with yours and see if they do this promotion, too. Remember, all promotions vary by owner so some may not offer this deal.


When we were at Home Depot, I noticed that ours had a paint clearance area. It's for paint that's been made the wrong color or some reason for them being returned. I was able to find a gallon of pretty paint for $5 and a smaller one for $1! Sometimes all a room needs is a nice new coat of paint to spruce it up. So next time you are at any of your Home Improvement stores, check/ask if they have a paint clearance area. (And I hope you find a great color on-the-cheap, too!)
