McDonalds Voucher

Options
Silly question:

I have a £5 voucher that McDonalds gave me after bad service.

It says on the voucher 'Please present before ordering'

Now if I present it before ordering - will I just receive rubbish food?

The person serving may think 'oh he/she has only got a voucher - this will do for them'

Am I being cynical lol

  • Yes. I do believe that you are lol. There could be many reasons to get that voucher.

    Apart from which the person serving the customer is not involved in the food prep so will just take the next (insert your favourite cardboard in a roll here) from the storage area.

  • My advice is to throw it away and get yourself some proper food. Apples, bananas, fresh veg - are all available at many stores these days.
    If you haven't got it - please don't flaunt it. TIA.

    Why? The odd fast food meal never hurt anyone. ;)

    I recieved the voucher after a silly mix up with my son when we visited.

    How I got the voucher is not the problem - I was just asking/stating - that I would get the crap if the voucher was produced before the the paying stage

    You are going to get crap anyway...so the question is void.

    For your information - McDonalds is somewhere I do not frequent. I do not like my son going there - but on the odd occasion (odd being once every few months)
    I am an old fashioned mum, who cooks meals from scratch - and my son must be one of the 'odd' children who like vegetables.
    He also likes seafood etc - not that I should have to explain his eating habits to anybody.

    Apples, bananas, fresh veg are available in many stores - and also my home!

    Thank you - somebody with a sensible reply

    I know - but did not want rubbish that had been dropped on the floor from earlier :eek:
