If you’ve noticed that your favorite burger costs you a little more lately, even the simplest one, you’re not alone. Inflation does not discriminate, and that includes fast food chains. With the cost of living rising, Burger King has had to adjust its prices.
But it’s not all bad news; There are clever ways to stretch your money at Burger King so you can still indulge your cravings. A TikTok user, @urbexspain, has created a stir by revealing a trick to get a Burger King cheeseburger for less money, a discovery that has accumulated more than 140,000 views and 4,000 likes.
The tactic is simple but effective. Instead of paying 1.45 euros for a Cheeseburger, the user proposes buying a normal hamburger for 1 euro and adding cheese as an extra ingredient. “Share with your rattest colleague,” the user suggests with a laugh.
With this method you get an identical burger but for 15 cents less. This practical advice adds to the strategies that consumers are adopting to combat the effects of inflation on their daily spending.
This strategy has generated a flurry of comments on TikTok, where some users have expressed their surprise and gratitude for the “instant savings tutorial.” Others have contributed their own ideas, such as buying two cheeseburgers to create a double version for only 2.60 euros.
In addition, others have expressed their surprise to find that Burger King still has regular hamburgers for one euro, something that is no longer found in other establishments. “They removed them and put them back,” a user revealed to put an end to the doubts.
