McDonald’s Corp. is looking to launch a $5 meal deal in the US that the burger
chain is betting can lure penny-pinching consumers back in.

The deal could include a McChicken or a McDouble along with fries and a drink,
according to a person familiar with the matter who spoke on the condition of
anonymity. On the company’s first-quarter earnings call, Chief Executive Officer
Chris Kempczinski said McDonald’s had to be “laser-focused on affordability”
given how price-weary diners have become. The company’s results were weaker than
expected.
