The best McDonald's, KFC and Hungry Jack's deals this week
Australians who love fast food enjoy it even more when they don't have to pay full price.
IBISWorld figures show the quick-service industry is worth $20.1 billion in Australia, so it's no wonder all the big names will put up big discounts to get customers into their door.
There are a couple of one-off promotion campaigns on this week in addition to the usual vouchers.
McDonald's is running '30 Days, 30 Deals', which sees a different cheapie offered each day for the month of November.
And KFC is taking 25 per cent off the price of delivery orders made on Menulog, as a Halloween gimmick.
So here are the best hunger-busting deals at each restaurant:
