What Are Carl’s Jr Deals?

Carl’s Jr deals save money in three main ways. A combo bundles a burger or sandwich with fries and a drink. A value item is priced lower than a full-size burger.

A sharing bundle spreads the cost across several people. None of these is guaranteed at every location, and a deal may apply only to certain items, sizes or times of day.

Near Me: How to Find Deals

Follow these steps. First, decide how many people you are feeding, because a bundle may beat separate combos for a group. Second, compare combo prices with separate prices.

Third, check the app, website or in-store promotion for a current deal at your location. Fourth, read the terms, including items, sizes and participating locations. Fifth, confirm the final price on your receipt before you leave, especially if you used a coupon or bundle offer.

Delivery

Delivery deals depend on your area and restaurant. Delivery menus, fees and minimum orders vary, and a deal available in store may not apply to delivery. Check the delivery app for your nearest restaurant and confirm the offer terms before you order.

How to Order

Choose dine-in, drive-thru, takeaway or delivery, then choose a combo, value item or bundle. Show or enter any offer exactly as instructed before you pay. If an offer does not apply, ask staff politely, because some offers are limited to participating locations only.

Hours

Deal hours vary by location. Breakfast deals are available only during breakfast hours, which are morning-only and vary by restaurant. Check the hours and offer terms for your specific restaurant before you visit, especially on weekends and public holidays.

Healthy Pros and Cons

Pros:

• A single combo with water is often better value, in money and nutrition, than a large combo with a sweet drink.
• Sharing fries or a shake reduces calories per person.
• Chicken and single-patty burgers are usually lighter than double burgers.

Cons:

• Extra food in a deal is only good value if you actually want it.
• Bacon, cheese and barbecue sauce add fat, salt and calories.
• Sweet drinks and shakes add sugar and can turn a value meal into a large meal.

Tips for Visitors

Compare combos with separate items, check offer terms, and confirm the offer applies at your location. Choose a combo you will finish, share fries or a shake, and choose water.
