What Wendy's deals are available today?
Wendy's has four everyday deals running at participating U.S. stores in late October 2026: three Biggie Deals tiers at $4, $6 and $8, a $7.99 Dave's Single combo and a $3 Breakfast Biggie Bundle. App offers come on top of those.
We checked Wendy's own pickup menus at 23 U.S. restaurants on Oct. 31, 2026. Here is what we found:
- Biggie Deals: 21 of 23 stores charged $4, $6 and $8. The other two charged $5, $7 and $9. Wendy's says prices can be higher in Alaska, California and Hawaii, and through third-party delivery.
- $7.99 Dave's Single combo: every store that listed the combo charged $7.99.
- Breakfast Biggie Bundle: 20 stores listed it, all at $3.
Wendy's labels its deals "price and participation may vary," because most restaurants are franchised. The table below sums up each deal, and the sections after it explain which one fits your order. The rest of the menu, with prices, is on our main Wendy's menu page.
| Deal | Price | What you get | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Biggie Bites | $4 ($5 at some stores) | One of: Crispy Chicken Sandwich, Jr. Cheeseburger, Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger, 4-pc. nuggets or Jr. fries, plus 4-pc. nuggets, Jr. fries or a small drink | Everyday |
| Biggie Bag | $6 ($7 at some stores) | Crispy Chicken Sandwich, Jr. Cheeseburger, Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger or Double Stack, plus 4-pc. nuggets, Jr. fries and a small drink | Everyday |
| Biggie Bundle | $8 ($9 at some stores) | Two of those sandwiches, Jr. fries and a small drink | Everyday |
| Dave's Single combo | $7.99 | Dave's Single, small fries, small soft drink | Limited time from Oct. 19, 2026 |
| Breakfast Biggie Bundle | $3 | Two breakfast items, such as a Sausage Biscuit | Breakfast hours, participating stores |
| Half-off Dave's Single | 50% off with purchase | App offer for Wendy's Rewards members | Limited time |
| Rewards sign-up bonus | Free | 200 points after first purchase, plus a 10-pc. nuggets offer with purchase | Ongoing |
Is the $7.99 Dave's Single combo a good deal?
Yes. The $7.99 Dave's Single combo saves about $2.70 to $3.60 compared with buying the burger, small fries and small drink separately at typical prices.
Wendy's launched it on Oct. 19, 2026, for a limited time at participating U.S. restaurants. You get a Dave's Single, which is a quarter-pound fresh-beef cheeseburger, small fries and a small soft drink. You can order it in the restaurant, at the drive-thru, in the app or on Wendy's website. Wendy's notes that delivery prices may be higher and that no substitutions or other discounts apply.
In our check, a Dave's Single alone cost about $5.79 to $6.19, small fries about $2.49 to $2.80 and a small soft drink about $2.39 to $2.59. That adds up to $10.67 to $11.58.
The Biggie Bag is cheaper but smaller. If you want a full-size burger, the $7.99 combo is the better value; if you want the lowest price for a full meal, the $6 Biggie Bag wins. More on the burger itself is on our Dave's Single and Baconator page.
Does Wendy's still have the 4 for $4?
No. Wendy's replaced the 4 for $4 with the Biggie Deals menu in January 2026, and none of the store menus we checked listed it.
The old 4 for $4 bundled a Jr. Cheeseburger, 4-piece nuggets, junior fries and a small soft drink. The closest match now is the $6 Biggie Bag, which has the same four parts and lets you pick a Crispy Chicken Sandwich, Jr. Bacon Cheeseburger or Double Stack instead of the Jr. Cheeseburger. For $4 today, you get Biggie Bites, which is two items rather than four.
What was the Wendy's Wednesday Meal?
The Wendy's Wednesday Meal was a limited-time tie-in with Netflix's series "Wednesday" that launched in the U.S. on Aug. 4, 2025. It is not on Wendy's menu now: none of the 23 store menus we checked in October 2026 listed it.
Officially called the Meal of Misfortune, it included:
- 10-piece nuggets, which you could swap for spicy nuggets
- small fries
- two of four mystery dipping sauces, picked at random
- a small Raven's Blood Frosty, a Vanilla Frosty swirled with dark cherry syrup
Wendy's did not publish one national price. One reviewer paid $10.19 and noted prices where they lived ran high. If you want something similar today, a 10-piece nugget combo cost about $8.69 to $9.29 in our check, and a small Frosty Swirl about $2.99 to $3.19.
Are there Wendy's coupons, free Frosty or free fries offers?
Wendy's current offers live in its app, under the Offers tab, rather than on paper coupons. Free and discounted items show up there for a limited time, and Wendy's Rewards points can be traded for free food.
What we could confirm in late October 2026:
- Sign-up bonus: new Wendy's Rewards members get 200 points after their first purchase and an app offer for 10-piece nuggets with a purchase.
- Half-off Dave's Single: a limited-time app offer gives Rewards members 50% off a Dave's Single with a purchase, tied to FOX's Big Noon Kickoff.
- Points: you earn 10 points per $1 on food. A small Classic Frosty costs 250 points and small fries 300. You can use one reward and one offer per order, and delivery orders do not earn points.
Past Frosty deals show how Wendy's runs these: a 67-cent small Frosty on Black Friday 2025 (then app-only through Dec. 7, 2025) and a $1 small Classic Frosty from July 20 to Aug. 23, 2026. Neither is running now. Our Wendy's Frosty page has current prices, and our fast food rewards apps ranking compares Wendy's program with other chains.
Which specialty drinks does Wendy's sell now?
Beyond fountain sodas, Wendy's current drink lineup includes lemonades, sparkling energy drinks and flavored cold brew. These are the ones listed on its menu in late October 2026:
- Lemonades: All-Natural, Strawberry, Watermelon and Pineapple Mango. A medium Watermelon Lemonade cost about $3.39 to $3.89.
- Sprite Watermelon: about $2.79 to $3.09 for a small.
- Sparkling energy drinks: Watermelon and Pineapple Citrus, about $3.29 to $3.39 for a small. Wendy's lists caffeine for the Pineapple Citrus version.
- Cold brew: black, or with cream in vanilla, caramel or chocolate, about $2.49 to $2.79 for a small.
Calories add up here: a medium Watermelon Lemonade has 330, and the sparkling energy drinks run 160 to 280 depending on flavor and size.
