Did you know? McDonald’s is giving away free food for 12 days this Christmas season

Jessica Woods

McDonald’s Mariah Menu is live. Starting on Monday, the chain began giving away free food and will continue to do so for the next 11 days. Each day one menu item will be free with a $1 purchase at McDonald’s. All you have to do is download the company’s app and check out the deas.

“Just like so many of my fans, I have such amazing memories with McDonald’s over the years. I always get a sense of nostalgia when I see the Golden Arches, so creating throwback merch with one of my favorite photos from the 90s was really fun for me,” said Mariah Carey.  

A true Mariah fan knows she always puts on a spectacular show, and our new TV commercial is no exception. Tonight the holidays are coming early with its primetime premiere, blending McDonald’s and Mariah’s worlds to the sound of everyone’s favorite holiday anthem, “All I Want for Christmas is You.” We couldn’t wait to unwrap this gift, so tune in here to catch a preview before it airs nationwide.


Customers can order the Mariah Menu in the U.S. starting on Dec.13, featuring a different free item** each day with a $1 minimum purchase on the McDonald’s app. To access the daily deals, simply download the McDonald’s app and visit the deals section to add to your order. 

*Available only at participating McDonald’s. Valid 1x/day with $1 min. purchase (excl. tax) from Dec. 13-24. See app for details.
