Wendy’s has announced that it will be offering a $3 breakfast combination meal for a limited time.
The deal, which began Monday, will include a small portion of seasoned potatoes and a choice of either a bacon, egg and cheese English muffin or a sausage, egg and cheese English muffin, the fast-food chain said.
The company also announced a new sausage breakfast burrito at participating locations.
The promotion comes days after McDonald’s announced a limited-time $5 meal deal that will begin next month.

Reuters reported that roughly a quarter of those who make less than $50,000 a year said in a survey in February that they were eating less fast food and about half said they were making fewer trips to fast-casual and full-service dining establishments.
