McDonald’s $5 Meal Deal Highlights Inflation Battle McDonald’s new $5 Meal Deal, debuting Tuesday, offers a McChicken or McBurger, chicken nuggets, fries, and a drink for less than a Big Mac, highlighting a shift in the fight against inflation. This promotion comes as the U.S. inflation rate slows, with prices up 3.3% in May compared to 4% the previous year and 8.6% the year before that.
