Burger King Is Giving Out Whoppers for 1 Cent on Tuesday… at ‘McDonald’s’

Burger King is giving away (almost) free Whoppers on Tuesday, but instead of pulling up in one of its royal drive-thrus, you’ll have to go to a McDonald’s to get it first. No, this isn’t a hunger-induced mirage.
Here’s the deal: The fast food chain is celebrating its newly revamped mobile app by serving up Whoppers for just one cent each as part of what’s dubbed the “Whopper Detour.” The catch is that you have to use the app to order your one-cent Whopper while in the immediate vicinity of a McDonald’s restaurant. Clever, huh? The way it works is simple, even if you’re not well-versed in cheeseburger tech.
Burger King geofenced McDonald’s locations all across the country, so when you open the Burger King app close enough to one of Mickey D’s decidedly Whopper-free eateries during the promotion, the app will unlock the one-cent Whopper deal. After you place your order, you’ll be “detoured” away from McDonald’s to the nearest Burger King to pick up your penny prize.

Burger King seriously has the worst marketing department and management on the planet. Blockbuster laughs at them.

Man it would suck to franchise these types of places. I know they are trying to up transactions, but the franchisees will be eating that cost.

Sounds like time to go to Sherwood at 12 then since BK and McD are right next door to each other.
Siegen at 10 would work too though they are a little further apart.
Still a fricking dumb promotion by BK.

Big day for me. I’ll be getting several at different locations. I plan to eat on them throughout the week.

A hamburger for one cent.
What's it made of?
People?

Order fries at Mickey D’s
Get the burger at BK
Makes sense
Of course I won’t be partaking as Mortimer has prepared a wonderful roast duck with confit d’orange over wild rice with steamed bok choy on the side.

Doesn’t seem like the best idea to create a marketing campaign incentivizing customers to go to your biggest competitors store.

I’m extremely fast food tolerant, but the last whopper I had was borderline inedible. I eat at Burger King about once a year now, and every time I stop there I wonder why I go that much.

BK is such a tryhard chain.
What a bizarre promo.

This is a bold strategy, let’s see how it plays out.

McDonald’s is across the street from Burger King in my town. May do this at lunch

I watched a grown man try to eat 100 bk nuggets the other night.
He failed. I made 50 bucks
