Forget Christmas Day or New Year’s Eve – International Cheeseburger Day is the celebration we can get behind the most in life. And now it seems Ronald McDonald is doing his bit to spread some delicious joy around the country on this most special of occasions.

That’s because, not to be outdone by $5 burgs at establishments like Bar Luca and Burger Project, Maccas are currently slinging their classic cheeseburgers to customers for one single buck. Yep, you can have your lunch sorted all with the power of a gold coin. Best start checking your back pockets for loose change.

Before your stomach gets too excited however, it is worth noting that in order to redeem the offer you’ll first need to jump onto the mymacca’s smartphone app (which can be found here for iPhone and here for Android). Once you’re logged in, make sure you check the My Rewards section, then head on over to your local chain and it’s all golden arches from there.

Again, this offer is only available to customers via the dedicated app and is limited to a single purchase, so don’t go clearing out room in the freezer just yet.

Naturally, the internet has gone into an understandable food frenzy meltdown, with multiple Facebook users requesting their friends partake in food runs on the way home from work, while another has simply declared that “McDonald’s is the best restaurant in the world.” Emotions are running high, people.

“We know so many of our customers love our iconic cheeseburger, so what better way to celebrate cheeseburger day than with one at Macca’s!” a McDonald’s spokeswoman told news.com.au.

Yep, we second that motion, so if you’ll excuse us, our stomachs are calling.
