Now THAT’S McValue! Friends score a free McDonald’s burger by tricking the self-serve computer using a little-known hack

• The friends select 10 hamburgers and then remove beef patties from them 
• This takes $1.10 taken off of each, leaving the whole order with a $0 balance
• The screen says ‘no payment required’ and a receipt with their order prints out  

Your next McDonald’s run just got a lot cheaper, with a the help of a little-known hack that allows customers to eat for free. 

Two friends demonstrated the trick on a self-serve screen in a video posted to Reddit on Sunday.

The trick was put to the test by Daily Mail Australia on Monday. 

By ordering 10 patty-less $1 burgers, customers can score a regular $1 hamburger for a grand total of $0. 

Removing the meat from the 10 burgers discounts each meal by $1.10 – providing the customers with a surplus that covers the cost of the additional regular burger.

After requesting to check out, the computer confirms there is ‘no payment required’ and prints out a receipt and order number.  

Reddit users were left divided over whether the hack was an ingenious way of eating for free, or a complete waste of food.

‘May I suggest if you go to Maccas and order a hamburger with nothing in it, you’re a bit of a tosser,’ one user wrote.

‘At the end of the day though, you only wanted the real cheeseburger. That’s a lot of effort to save $1,’ another user pointed out. 

Other social media users warned against trying out the self-service hack in full view of security cameras.

‘Personally, I’d advise against trying to rip-off a multinational on its own premises under the full view of CCTV.’

‘I’m all for exploiting loopholes and sticking it to the man or whatever, but I’m not a fan of wasting food. I hope you’re going to eat all those buns.’
