The New Year's New Leader in Value is Krystal's' More for $4

After holiday spending on gifts, parties, and celebrations, many people are starting the New Year with a resolution to save more money. That's why Krystal restaurants are offering a big-time value while still feeding guests' appetites with a combo of the iconic burger brand's most popular menu items. With the "More for $4" deal, guests get a budget-smart meal that includes two Krystals, two boneless wings, a side of fries, a small soda, and a cookie made with premium Ghirardelli chocolate all for only $4.

"We know that after the holidays, everyone can use a break," said Alice Crowder, Vice President of Marketing for The Krystal Company. "When you can get seven items for $4, that's a meaningful value."

Originally launched on Nov. 28, the More for $4 deal has been one of the strongest values in the quick-service restaurant industry and is available all-day, every day which is in contrast to other brands who only offer top values on certain days, or on small-portion items. The Krystal deal features a typical full-size order and even adds a dessert item not usually packaged as part of a value meal. The value-packed deal is available at participating locations until Feb. 12.

"We don't believe that paying less means you should get less," Crowder continued. "That's not a true value. More for $4 is about giving guests a complete, satisfying meal at a more-than satisfying price. When you can get two delicious burgers, two boneless wings, an order of fries, a drink, and dessert for only $4 then you're really making a difference in people's budgets."
