McDonald’s is reducing prices by about 15% on select Extra Value Meal combos to attract customers facing economic pressure. The initiative includes promotional meals priced as low as $5 for a Sausage McMuffin and $8 for a Big Mac meal. Chief Executive Chris Kempczinski cited a sharp decline in visits from middle- and lower-income consumers due to high menu prices as a key concern. The move comes amid rising costs for labor and ingredients and variable pricing across locations.
