How to get a cheeseburger at Burger King for 1 cent? Offer explored

Burger King is offering its classic cheeseburger for just one cent this week. It aims to provide a break for people from all the work on Tax Day.

April 15 is considered Tax Day as it is the final day of submission of individual income taxes in the United States. While many people file their taxes before the deadline, many wait until the final day. Regardless, it is a big day and can be stressful as well.

Hence, many food chains are offering some limited-time offers for this day, and Burger King has joined them as well.

Customers can get a classic cheeseburger at the popular fast-food chain for just one cent (plus taxes) on any purchase of $1 or more. This offer, however, only applies to BK's Royal Perks members.

The Royal Perks members can go on the chain's app or website and make any purchase of $1 or more and get a 1-cent cheeseburger. They can either purchase another burger or sides like onion rings or fries.

BK's cheeseburger features one flame-grilled beef patty, melted American cheese, pickles, mustard, and ketchup, all served on a sesame bun. Its price can vary depending on the region, but generally, it costs around $2.59. Hence, getting it for one cent is a great deal.

The offer will start on April 15, i.e., Tax Day, and go on until April 20, 2025. As the fast-food chain's website explains:

"All week long! Take a break from filing with a juicy, flame-grilled Cheeseburger for 1¢ with $1+ purchase. Ends 4/20. Only in the BK® App or on bk.com!"

Customers who aren't BK Royal Perks members yet can sign up on the app or the website.
