McDonald’s is offering a coupon for $1 off the new Fruit Smoothie or a Frappe at McDonald’s. The coupon expires August 15th. A couple of tips from me: I had trouble printing this on Firefox, Internet Explorer worked better. Also the coupon is a major ink hog, it’s like a whole page of pink and purple.
Thanks Saving with Brandi!

I couldn’t get it to print anywhere – it wouldn’t load into my printer from the McD link – why does
that not even surprise me. I am beginning to realize that everything about McD’s is a total ripoff and a scam…. Think this is the end of any money leaving my hand into their till. Sorry Ronald McDonald – you need to find a company that supports the kids you care for better than the one you are connected with now..
Thanks….printed mine
There was a coupon for a FREE smoothie or frappe in the most recent Latina magazine!
aw man, I didn’t read your comment about the ink hog!! I printed 4 of them and saw the ink use and was like “NOOOO” and then my printer of course beeped that it’s low in ink.. think of all the coupons for ‘free after double’ I could have printed with that ink?! I hope these are good and I will definitely use them! hehe. … how much is a frappe.. or a smoothie? thanks!
How did you get it to print 4? I barely could get it print 1. (No, it did not show up as a pdf file on my computer. FF had it as a pdf, but the Acrobat crashed. Had to use IE and it used one of those coupon printers. Bummer. Hate that it is a pring hog!!!!
yes, $1 off is not worth the ink it took to print it. I stopped the print.
Just set your printer to “fast draft” and “black ink only”. It’ll save much more ink this way.
HOw much fat do these guys have?
Great question Stephanie!
The website only says it is made with ice and low fat yogurt. I just looked at the nutritional facts and they are not listed for these fruit smoothies YET but they are for the frappe’s

Hopefully they will update soon.

I printed mine off in B&W this morning before running errands and stopped to pick one up…they didn’t accept the coupon because it wasn’t printed in color (and the continued to accuse me of photocopying it (coupon fraud) which I hadn’t…I guess they haven’t heard of black and white laser printers). Oh well…I left without a smoothie and a bit frustrated!
http://www.wholecoupons.com is selling the Mc Donald’s FREE 12oz smoothie or Frappe coupon 10 coupons for $2.25. I haven’t heard of any other sites. That’s 22 and half cents each, what a great deal!
I got three Qs for a free 12oz smoothie or frappe from McDonald’s in the USA weekend news.
I went to use the coupon and they wouldn’t even accept it…
