Burger King has a new penny Whopper deal – but you need to head to McDonald's first

Burger King is selling whoppers for only one cent- but there’s a catch - you have to go to McDonald’s.

Few things are more ingrained into the minds – and stomachs – of fast-food fans than McDonald's sells Big Macs and Burger King is the home of the Whopper.

For nine days, this widely-known truth will be turned on its head – sort of.

Tuesday through Dec. 12, Burger King is selling its iconic burger for a penny at McDonald's in a promotion called the "Whopper Detour."

No, you can't have it your way at McDonald's – but you need to be close to the location of one to get the Burger King deal. The promotion is part of Burger King's relaunched BK app, which now offers the ability to place orders in advance for participating locations.

The promotion “works by geofencing McDonald’s locations across the country,” Burger King said in a statement. “If a guest is inside one of these geofenced areas and has the new BK App on their device, the app will unlock the WHOPPER sandwich for a penny promotion."

Then after the order is placed, the user will be “detoured” away from McDonald’s and the app will navigate them to the nearest Burger King to pick up the burger.

Someone did not talk to the franchise owners AT ALL.

Most "food hubs" in the south are owned by ONE fukkING FAMILY.

Ever notice KFC, Burger King, McDonalds, and Taco Bell in the same location? Chances are they are all owned by the same dude and it "fake competition and choices"

This app undercuts their margins while not benefiting them at all as franchise owners because they probably own the fukking mcdonalds anyway.

It is like car dealerships. If they all close together, regardless of "rivalries." They all owned by the same dude.

Franchisers love franchisees with proven track records and practically give them franchises for nothing because it means you have a responsible owner. Watch "the blind side" to see how it works. The reason that white family was so rich was because dad owned every single fast food joint in the city. "fake competition."

It's a penny dawg. Stick to drawing funnies.

Usually corporate picks up the bill on promo not the franchise

Yo, that shyt did not work for me, I restarted the app like 6 times, and was on the drive thru.

At that point I said fukk it and got micky ds instead.

They betta fix they app if they don't want nikkas to change they mind.
