While the temperatures outside continue to rise, the war for cheap fast food menus is raging.

Between McDonald’s newly launched $5 menu and Taco Bell’s new limited-time Luxe Cravings Box, there’s no shortage of summer deals this year. As fast-food giants vie for the favor of customers they’ve turned away due to skyrocketing prices, consumers seem to be reaping the benefits – at least for now.

From $3 breakfast bags to new long-lasting menus, summer offerings include breakfast, lunch, dinner and more, all for easily under $10 per person.
