McDonald’s Preparing To Take Breakfast Dollar Menu Nationwide, Documents State

Chicago Tribune:

McDonald’s Corp. appears to be planning to mate its popular dollar menu with its equally popular breakfast menu in a nationwide promotion, and not just in Chicago and a few other markets where it currently exists, according to documents obtained by the Tribune.

This would appear to be the first time McDonald’s has brought the dollar menu to a nationwide breakfast promotion. McDonald’s said “it does not comment on information obtained from unauthorized sources,” or on rumors or speculation.

Meanwhile, Dunkin’ Donuts will debut an expanded 99-cent value menu Monday in the Chicago area, which is one of the chain’s biggest markets, and while it’s a limited-time offer, it could be extended, the company said.
