When McDonald's decides to offer a product at a promotional price, independent franchise owners are not required to offer that promo. In fact, you'll see something like, "Participation may vary" in most, if not all ads from McDonald's. You may believe that all franchises should participate, but that is irrelevant. It all depends on the contract between the franchise owner and McDonald's corporate.
