First things first, it’s important to note that while the eclipse may only last a few minutes, this exclusive Burger King deal will be available throughout the whole day on April 8 and will run right up until April 15, 2024.

In order to take part in the deal, customers must first be Burger King members. For those who do not yet have a Royal Perk membership, signing up is simple and is free of charge.

From there, customers will have the chance to use the buy-one-get-one-free deal and score a free Whopper in the process. 

“We don’t believe in charging guests more when they’re hungry,” Burger King wrote in a press release. “Surge pricing? Well, that’s new. Good thing the only thing surging at BK is our flame!”

And that’s all you need to know about the upcoming buy-one-get-one-free deal coming to Burger King during April.
