The fast food giant has launched a new menu item for UK customers to try
The meal deal gives customers a chance to get a small cheeseburger, chicken nuggets, small fries and drink for £5.
Diners can upgrade for an extra £2.99 to get their hands on one of the chain's "premium" burgers such as a Wendy's Spicy Chicken or Wendy's Single.
The more pricey version also comes with chicken nuggets, a small drink and chips.
Wendy's £5 bargain allows customers to save around £1.77
The price of a small drink is around £1.49 at the chain, while the cost of a small burger is £2.49 and a four piece nugget is £2.79 and fries costs £1.59.
If you bought all the items separately it would cost £8.36, but be aware prices may vary from store to store.
Meanwhile, customers who upgrade to the £7.99 Biggie Bag can save £3.17.
The offer has been a long standing feature in Wendy's restaurants in the US, with customers saying they "love it".
One loyal fan said: "I upgrade to a large so my toddler can share and have the nuggets and some burger. So much better than McDonald's."
While another customer said: "The Biggie bag is absolutely delicious I get it every time I go to Wendy's."
