Many of Taco Bell's menu items cost anywhere between two and three dollars apiece, including its soft or crunchy taco supremes, and spicy potato taco. Taco Bell's burritos are equally cheap, including its Beefy Crunch Burrito, Chipotle Ranch Grilled Chicken Burrito, and Chili Cheese Burrito.

The company's Cheesy Bean and Rice Burrito might be one of the best deals on the whole fast-food scene, only costing about a buck or so. The company's Chicken Enchilada Burrito, made with chicken, shredded cheese, red sauce, seasoned rice, and sour cream, will only set you back a couple of dollars.

The Shredded Beef Grilled Cheese Dipping Taco is another great value menu, at a little under four bucks a pop. The shredded beef in this taco is a big step up from Taco Bell's regular ground beef. Tender and juicy, it makes this a fast-food version of a birria taco.

Other cheap eats include Taco Bell's nacho fries, cheesy fiesta potatoes, beans and rice, and cinnamon twists — all of which only cost about a couple of dollars. Part of what makes Taco Bell's value truly exceptional is the wide range of low prices that it offers on its menu. While many other fast food joints might only have a handful of deals, Taco Bell feels more generous in its variety of affordable options.

Jimmy John's is a popular sandwich chain that sets itself apart from some of its competition by preparing some of the menu's main ingredients in-house.

The company hand-slices its deli meats fresh at each location, makes its ranch dressing from scratch, chops its veggies by hand, and bakes loaves of bread in its stores to ensure ultimate freshness. Even with good-quality ingredients and attention to detail, Jimmy John's still manages to make much of its menu very accessible in terms of price.

In , Jimmy John's rolled out its Little John sandwich line. These sandwiches are a little smaller but sold for a cheaper price, which makes them great for lighter meals and snacks.

Originally, Little Johns were sold for only three dollars apiece, but the price seems to have increased somewhat over the years. Fear not though: Little Johns are still available for only about a couple of dollars more.

Still very reasonable, especially compared to some other sandwich chains. There are seven different Little John sandwiches available on the restaurant's menu. Some of the choices include ham, roast beef, turkey, salami, and a BLT. There's also a vegetarian sandwich that includes mayo, lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, avocado spread, and cheese.

If you're in the mood for a good sandwich and you're looking to save a few bucks, the Little John menu should fit the bill. Wendy's has been in the fast food game for generations, having opened its first restaurant in The company cooks its food to order, grills fresh and never frozen beef, and uses seasonal produce in its salads.

Wendy's has some great deals on its menu for both breakfast sandwiches and burgers. One of the best value items at Wendy's is the Junior Bacon Cheeseburger.

The company first introduced this cheeseburger back in and it's been a staple on the menu ever since. It only costs a few bucks and comes with a junior hamburger patty and melted American cheese.

With its refreshing layers of crunchy lettuce, applewood smoked bacon, slices of sweet tomato, and a creamy spread of mayo, it's almost like a blend of a fast-food burger and a BLT. The chicken nuggets at Wendy's are also a good choice, and the four- or six-piece orders of them will only set you back a few dollars.

Wendy's also has good deals for breakfast, with mix-and-match options for only a few bucks apiece. These breakfast items include a sausage biscuit, egg and cheese biscuit, seasoned potatoes, and a medium coffee. Between its inexpensive choices for breakfast and burgers, Wendy's is a good call when hunger strikes.

Culver's sources its beef, chicken, and dairy from family farms to maximize freshness while supporting the agricultural community.

The company's food has a fresher taste compared to a lot of other fast-food restaurants, and the menu is also a bit more eclectic. At Culver's, you can get everything from fried jumbo shrimp and crispy Atlantic cod to fried cheese curds and Buffalo Chicken Tenders.

There are also shredded pot roast sandwiches, grilled corned beef Reubens on buttered rye, hand-breaded pork loin, and corn dogs. Of course, Culver's also offers classic cheeseburgers and its famous Fresh Frozen Custard with lots of different flavors and toppings.

Culver's sells its single patty ButterBurger for about three dollars. You can customize the burger with a variety of different toppings at no extra charge, including lettuce, onions, pickles, ketchup, mayo, and mustard.

Culver's also serves chicken tenders made from ethically sourced whole meat, with an order of two costing around five dollars. They're available in original flavor or buffalo, and come with a variety of dipping sauce options like bleu cheese, buttermilk ranch, buffalo sauce, and barbecue.

The higher quality of the food at Culver's makes all of these deals feel well worth it. Whenever we're in the mood for some of the best chain-restaurant mozzarella sticks around, Arby's is one of the first places that comes to mind, and the other offerings there are no less appealing.

With a menu full of interesting offerings, Arby's is known for its roast beef sandwiches that are drizzled with a cheddar cheese sauce. The company has a great deal that allows customers to mix and match two items for seven dollars, including its famous Beef and Cheddar, Classic Crispy Chicken Sandwich, and Mozzarella Sticks.

What we dig about this deal is that these three items are some of the best things on the entire menu. Arby's also serves sliders at a great value, with each of them costing only about two dollars.

Slider choices include buffalo chicken, classic fried chicken, roast beef and Swiss, or roast beef and Swiss with diced jalapenos. The company also offers limited-time deals, like an online-only deal in the fall of , which lets you choose from five of its classic menu items, each for three dollars or less.

Ever been in the mood for tacos and burgers at the same time? If you're anything like us, the answer is definitely yes. The problem is that most fast-food restaurants only sell one or the other, forcing customers to make a choice between the two.

What's awesome about Jack in the Box is that you don't have to compromise, because you can score both burgers and tacos all in the same place.

The tacos are also ridiculously cheap: Jack in the Box sells two crunchy tacos stuffed with beef, melted cheese, shredded lettuce, and taco sauce for about a dollar. Tacos for breakfast? Jack in the Box offers that too.

The company's breakfast tacos come with Jimmy Dean breakfast sausage, fresh scrambled eggs, taco sauce, and cheese for under two bucks apiece. The chipotle sauce, cheese, and lettuce are simple but pleasant accompaniments to the taters. Yes, wrapping potatoes in a flour tortilla is a carb bomb.

But we assure you, this starch-on-starch combo is worth your dollar bill. You might be worried that rice rolled in a flour tortilla would be pretty bland, but Taco Bell throws its entire seasoning and sauce repertoire at this burrito to kick things up a notch.

The rice is slightly spicy and perfectly salty, and the refried beans are just as craveable as they are in anything else from Taco Bell. You also get not one but two sauces: creamy jalapeño and nacho cheese. It certainly doesn't look like it does in the pictures in real life, and it's basically a tortilla filled with Tex-Mex goo, but we'll happily chow down on it even when our wallets aren't hurting.

This Taco Bell snack is an exercise in minimalism. What you read in the name is what you get: melted cheese rolled in a flour tortilla. You can think of the cheesy roll-up as the simplest possible quesadilla, except in tube form.

Sometimes all you want is gooey, fatty melted cheese and a soft flour tortilla. If you'd like, you can always add your Taco Bell sauce packet of choice to wake it up a little.

Really, who doesn't dump Diablo sauce all over everything they get from Taco Bell anyway? This menu item is also perfect for picky kids. If your little one is afraid of lettuce and thinks the chipotle sauce from Taco Bell is too spicy, surely they'll accept the comforting simplicity of the cheesy roll-up.

If you've got a dollar bill burning a hole in your pocket and a hankering for something sweet, Taco Bell's cinnamon twists won't do you wrong. But what are cinnamon twists, anyway? It turns out that Taco Bell makes cinnamon twists in a rather surprising way: by deep-frying what looks an awful lot like dried rotini pasta.

However, before you go and try dumping the box of rotini in your pantry in some hot oil, be forewarned: the noodles that Taco Bell turns into cinnamon twists are a special type made with corn meal and rice flour.

And why would you go to the trouble of deep-frying at home when you can pick up a bag of these from Taco Bell for a buck? Cinnamon twists hit all the satisfying notes you'd expect from cinnamon sugar-coated fried dough. They're crispy, a little oily, and just the right amount of sweet.

We all know Popeyes' chicken sandwich is the gold standard for fast-food chicken sandwiches. It ignited a frenzy unlike anything we've seen related to a fast-food menu item and inspired a legion of copycats.

However, it's not the best fast-food fried chicken deal. For that, you have to turn away from the Louisiana Kitchen and go towards the comforting glow of the Golden Arches. Although the McChicken isn't an internet darling, it does have longevity on its side; per Toronto Life , this chicken sandwich was introduced in the s.

It's a menu mainstay for a reason: It gives you the classic fried chicken patty, lettuce, mayo, and bun combination you expect in a fast-food chicken sandwich for a shockingly low price. The chicken is well-seasoned, crispy, and not overly dry, and the condiments do just enough to make the sandwich truly yummy.

It may not inspire long lines or fistfights, but it gets the job done. If you have only one dollar and need a beverage, which fast food place should you visit to quench your thirst?

The answer is undoubtedly McDonald's. That's right: No matter whether you get a small, medium, or large, all you have to have to part with is one George Washington.

Although McDonald's doesn't list the exact size of its drinks on its online menu , an investigation from Insider found that the large cup held around 28 ounces of soda. You might think that the super-cheap McDonald's sodas would be a loss leader — something McDonald's loses money on in order to entice customers — but that's not the case.

One of the reasons McDonald's soda is so cheap is that each one only costs the company a few cents to produce. It makes you think about how much the other fast food places are raking in from drink sales. McDonald's is the undisputed king of cheap fast-food beverages.

If you happen to be a senior citizen, you get an even better deal: A senior coffee will only set you back 79 cents. Despite the low prices, McDonald's isn't selling garbage. It beat almost every competitor in our fast-food coffee ranking, falling behind only Chick-fil-A and Starbucks.

McDonald's coffee is rich and flavorful and tastes fresh, especially if you order it during the breakfast rush when the restaurant is selling coffee super quickly. It's also always hot, though not as hot as it was during the era of the infamous McDonald's hot coffee lawsuit.

We can't guarantee that this item will be available when you want it, as there's a decent chance your local McDonald's ice cream machine is broken , but if you luck out and find a McDonald's that can sell soft-serve, this is absolutely the best deal on ice cream you can find.

Of course, McDonald's ice cream is cheap for a reason. The ingredients list on the McDonald's site shows that it's filled with stabilizers, corn syrup, and other additives. It's also lower in fat than regular ice cream, so if you squint, you could almost see it as healthy.

Most of Wendy's menu isn't particularly cheap, which makes the chain's bargain meal deals even more of a steal. Sure, the Jr. is the smallest burger Wendy's sells, but there's no doubt you'll feel full after polishing off the burger, nuggets, and fries together.

Bacon Cheeseburger, Crispy Chicken BLT, or Double Stack. You also get a larger serving of fries. Fortunately, Wendy's has you covered with its Jr. Of course, a Jr. is pretty small, but at around 6 ounces, per Fortune , it's just big enough to satisfy your need for sugar without giving you a brain freeze.

A Frosty is a little bit lighter than the shakes from other fast food places, but it's still plenty sweet. Frosty is also only calories, so it's a good way to satiate your ice cream cravings without throwing your whole diet out of whack. You can choose either classic chocolate or strawberry Frosty.

You haven't really eaten at Wendy's until you've dipped your fries in a Frosty. The money goes to charity and you wind up getting free Frostys for an entire year.

What to order: If you're looking to maximize your caloric intake for the buck, the Sausage Egg and Cheese on a croissant has a whopping calories. The bagels at Dunkin' tend to survive life before your mouth a little more intact than the croissant. No, you aren't getting a coffee, but Dunkin' isn't fooling anyone with the name change.

You still came there for the donut. What to order: Chipotle is not the go-to spot for a budget-conscious eater. You really can't get anything there's a kid's menu. The same thing less the juice box from the adult menu costs slightly more.

However, it's entirely possible if you think outside the Mountain. Yeah, the Jamocha Shake is only available here, but these are the best damn fries in the game. It's also worth checking if they're offering anything for signing up for the Arby's email list.

What to order: No, the Colonel still isn't bringing back the long-dead Double Down. Though, the nuggets would substitute well and keep you in the same price range.

Plus, you'd be getting those sweet, sweet sauces. Sometimes the classics are classics for a reason. What to order: Jimmy John's hasn't always been the best place for a super-cheap lunch. However, in late , JJ added the Little John.

Plus, there are seven varieties of the Little John, which gives you options, but the 6 is a solid choice if you're looking to get the most out of the smaller sandwich. The vegetarian sandwich comes with avocado, provolone, cucumber, lettuce, tomato, and mayo.

You're getting a lot more flavor there than with the spare Slim 5 and a few more calories than with the other Little John options. If you're ordering anything but the salt and vinegar chips, you're doing it wrong.

What to order: You're going to have a tough time pulling this one off. That's the highest calorie soup they offer. For the same price, you can come close with the Summer Corn Chowder or the Bistro French Onion. What to order: You'll run into the same problem here that you ran into at Chipotle.

You could turn to the kid's menu, but that can get awkward. Let's go a different direction. What to order: The Dollar Menu is dead; long live the Dollar Menu. That's the best you'll do unless you're dining with the Hamburglar.

What to order: Get dressed like you're making stops at the sock hop and Makeout Bluff, then try not to spill chili cheese down your chest.

So, there's really only one option to make it all happen here. Load it up with your favorite fixings and add in a bag of Sun Chips, because that's what you do at Subway.

What to order: Yes, you could blow your budget and more on any of its ridiculously sweet Frap du Jour surprises. But you can actually get a decent breakfast as well. Not to mention you should be checking the Rewards app to get points and see if there's a Happy Hour going down.

Buckets of KFC chicken make for an easy meal on busy weeknights or a stress-free Super Bowl party. Little Caesars does cheap pizza well, but the prices have recently increased — the second time since the pandemic started.

The upgrade is worth the extra change. Family meals at Panda Express are a crowd pleaser. Who doesn't like orange chicken and fried rice?
