McDonald's is gearing up to celebrate one of its favorite holidays: National Egg McMuffin Day.
National Egg McMuffin Day is Monday, March 2, and for the whole day, the fast food chain is offering $1 Egg McMuffins and $1 Sausage McMuffins with Egg to customers who place an order through the McDonald's mobile app.
The Egg McMuffin has been a McDonald's staple since its launch on the menu in 1971. The breakfast sandwich is made with an egg, Canadian bacon, American cheese, butter and a toasted English muffin. The Sausage McMuffin and Sausage McMuffin with Egg, on the other hand, are made with sausage instead of bacon.
Here's how to get your hands on a discounted Egg McMuffin this week.
