My wish came true. Last summer Carl's Jr. ran a crazy promotion, offering $1 Western Bacon Cheeseburgers every Wednesday through July. Well, my local Arizona location is offering them again. I am expecting this deal to, again, run through July.
Carl's is currently advertising the WBC and their new Western Fries with "western bacon cheeseburger seasoning" so the deal is timely. I'll check it out today, but if it runs like last year expect a 4-burger limit per purchase.
EDIT: My local Carl's Jr. confirmed this deal will run through the third Wednesday of July.
The McDonald's mobile app works pretty well and has many features unique to this mega-chain. In addition to the requisite specials and locator is the ability not only to order food but to track your arrival at the restaurant for car-side delivery (if your local store is so-equipped.)

I just had to share this adorable kid's-sized order of chips from Chipotle. What a cute little bag. And you may be surprised to learn that there was a decent amount of chips inside, maybe 15 or so. Plenty for one person.
Bookending this post are obligatory shots of an international Big Mac, this time from Madrid, Spain. I found this particular sandwich to lean more toward the vinegar side for their Special Sauce. The effect was a fast food burger that was rather bland in flavor. I lean on the sweetness and tang of the Special Sauce to offset the very dull taste of McDonald's standard burger patties. That was lacking here. Oh well, the worst Big Mac is still better than a lot of other foods!
Let's take a look at the menu:
For a limited time, McDonald's rolled out another food item with a name that's quite a mouthful: Sweet N' Spicy Honey BBQ Glazed Tenders. Whew. The marketing says these are "hand-tossed and glazed to order." Maybe, but what are these like in real life?
El Pollo Loco recently introduced a series of $5 "Craveable Combos" - each with a main menu item plus a side of chips and a soft drink. There are four such combos right now:
Above and below are pics of the burrito version.
