April Fools Deal That’s Actually Real: $3 Big Buford is Back🍔

If you’re hoping for a good April Fools’ deal that’s actually worth it, Checkers and Rally’s is delivering in a big way. For a limited time, you can grab their fan-favorite Big Buford burger for just $3—yes, really!

From April 1 through April 2, 2026, participating locations are offering this loaded, crave-worthy burger at a seriously discounted price. The Big Buford is one of the chain’s most iconic menu items, stacked with 100% beef patties and topped with cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, mayo, ketchup, and mustard.

This isn’t some gimmick or prank—it’s a legit deal that gives you big flavor (and nearly double the beef) without the big price tag.

Keep in mind, this offer is only available for two days, and at participating locations, so you’ll want to act fast if you’re planning to take advantage.

If you love a good burger deal, this is one April Fools’ promo you won’t want to miss! 🍔
