McDonald's will be giving away free food inspired by different holiday characters from December 14 to December 24.
Each day of the deal has a different "festive favorite of a classic holiday character,"according to McDonald's. Figures showcased in the deal span from classics like Frosty the Snowman to non-traditional holiday characters like Frank Costanza.
In a bold cultural proclamation, the fast-food giant has also declared "Die Hard" to be a Christmas movie, which means the holiday deal will include a free McDouble on December 17 in honor of the movie's fictional John McClane.
"Yes, 'Die Hard' is a holiday movie," the company said in a news release announcing the deals.
McDonald's festive plan also includes hotcakes in honor of Buddy the Elf on December 20, coffee for Scrooge on December 21, and an egg McMuffin for the Grinch on December 16. The almost 1.5 weeks of free food then ends on a pack of chocolate chip cookies in honor of Santa Claus.
Customers need to make a minimum $1 purchase and order using the McDonald's app in order to redeem the daily offers.
"After a year like 2020, I think we could all use some extra cheer this season," McDonald's US chief marketing officer Morgan Flatley said in a statement on the news release.
The holiday offering is a switch up from the recent string of McDonald's celebrity partnership menus that started with the $6 Travis Scott Meal in September.
"Travis is the first in a suite of big celebrities that resonate across segments and are true fans of our food and our brand," Flatley wrote in an August memo obtained by Business Insider.
Following the success of the Travis Scott Meal, McDonald's introduced the J Balvin Meal in October.
