McDonald's has agreed to join in on the 'eat out to help out' scheme which sees heavy 50% discounts applied and is capped at £10 off per person. That means that for the whole of August you can get a 20 pack of chicken nuggets for just £3. What a bargain.

However, before anyone gets too excited these discounts only apply if you're dining in, that means anyone who orders at the drive-thru or Uber Eats will have to cough up the full price.
