McDonald’s McGold Card Returns, Which Guarantees Free McDonald’s For Life

If I had free McDonald’s for life, I’m channeling Drake in “God’s Plan” energy and pulling up to locations just to treat folks. That’s why the news of McDonald’s bringing back the hallowed McGold Card is blowing up, as the prospect of free Mickey D’s for life has got folks hyped.

The elusive McGold Card makes a dramatic return since its last appearance in 2018. Starting December 5 to December 25, 2022 fans can enter for a chance to win a coveted McGold Card, essentially giving the cardholder free McDonald’s for life. To enter, simply use the McDonald’s app to buy food, which then gives you one entry per each qualifying purchase.

That “God’s Plan” vibe if I win a McGold Card may not come off as splurgy, though, as McDonald’s states that “free McDonald’s for life” is based on two meals per week for 50 years.
