Unwrap the Savings Secrets of the Wendy's Biggie Bag

Wendy’s is known for their great deals on their signature Frosties, but getting deals on their hamburger is a bit rarer. However, one deal that’ll consistently get you a discount is the Wendy’s Biggie Bag.

With the Wendy’s Biggie Bag, you’ll get four items from the Wendy’s menu on a discount. We’ve found out exactly how much you’ll be saving with each Biggie Bag and even did a breakdown on a few other Wendy’s menu deals that you should know about.

The Biggie Bag is a deal that comes and goes without warning — and even the people we talked to at Wendy’s corporate don’t know how long it’ll last — so if you aren’t able to get one, check out the many food deals in your area that you should know about.

NOTE: Because Wendy’s locations are franchises (meaning individually owned), not every Wendy’s location is participating in the Biggie Bag deal. Make sure to check your local Wendy’s location to see if they are participating.

 

Save 52% when you order a Wendy’s Biggie Bag for $5.

With the Wendy’s Biggie Bag, you can get a sandwich, small fries, 4-piece chicken nuggets, and a small drink or Frosty for only $5. Here’s how much you’ll be saving with each Wendy’s Biggie Bag:

• Double Stack Biggie Bag: Originally $10.46 — a 52.2% savings
• Crispy Chicken BLT Biggie Bag: $10.36 — a 51.7% savings
• Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger Biggie Bag: Originally $10.26 — a 51.3% savings

 

The Biggie Bag is still a better deal than the 4 for $4 Menu.

The Wendy’s 4 for $4 Menu only has one option: the Jr. Cheeseburger combo. But you’ll get a Jr. Cheeseburger, value fries, a small drink, and 4-piece chicken nuggets — which would cost $8.96. This deal will give you a 55.4% discount on your meal.

TIP: If you’re ordering through the Wendy’s app or website, you can find both the Biggie Bags and 4 for $4 Menu on the “Meal Deals” page, not the “Biggie Deals” page.

 

You can upgrade and make alterations to your Biggie Bag.

You can get upgrades to your Wendy’s Biggie Bag, but it will cost you a bit more for every alteration. You’ll be able to get a larger fry size, change your drink, and make additions to your sandwiches.

Here’s how much each alteration will cost you:

• Medium Fries: +$0.90
• Large Fries: +$1.00
• Cheese: +$0.30 per slice
• Bacon: +$0.40 per strip
• Bourbon Bacon Sauce: +$0.40
• Beer Cheese Sauce: +$0.40
• Lemonade: +$0.50
• Medium Drink: +$0.30

TIP: You can exchange your drink for a Frosty (normally priced at $0.99) instead — no additional charge.

 

 

Scan the Wendy’s app to get 50 reward points for your Biggie Bag purchase.

When you download the Wendy’s app, you’ll be added to the Wendy’s loyalty program. For every $1 spent, you’ll get 10 points on your account, and you can use those points to get free Wendy’s. You can get your points by ordering through the app, scanning your app at the register, or scanning the QR code on your receipt after you’ve ordered.

For the purchase of your Biggie Bag, you’ll get 50 points, which is a third of the points you need to get a Frosty (normally 150 points or $0.99). It’s one of the many ways to get free Wendy’s Frosties all season long.

 

Use a discounted gift card to make your Biggie Bag even cheaper.

Before you head to get your Biggie Bag, you should always get a discounted Wendy’s gift card from Raise.com. In the past, we’ve seen discounts of up to 3% on gift card purchases.

With the added 3% discount, you can get a Biggie Bag for an 18% discount instead of a 14%.

There are so many restaurant gift card deals that you should know about.

 

The Biggie Bag has gotten more expensive throughout its promotion.

In the past, many of the items that were available on the Wendy’s 4 for $4 menu were moved to the $5 Biggie Bag. That includes both the Double Stack and the Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger.

It’s also been noted that the portion sizes are significantly smaller than in previous years. Just one of the many ways that shrinkflation has made eating more expensive.

 

Get a similar deal at other fast food restaurants.
