McBroken no more? Wendy's website outs broken McDonald's ice cream machines

Editor's note: A previous version of this story stated that the site McBroken.com was owned by Wendy's. It has been updated to reflect that Wendy's is a partner with the website developer.

I guess $1 Frostees weren't enough.

Wendy's is now giving people another reason to head to their store to buy the frozen treat.

The hamburger chain introduced $1 small Frostees this summer for its customers, now spills the tea (or is it milkshake?) on its best customers.

Wendy's has partnered with McBroken.com , which tells you if the McDonald's store you're heading to can make you that hot fudge sundae, to help fans get a sweet treat for just $1.

According to the site, 14.72% of McDonald's ice cream machines are down, including 32% in New York. You're better off in Philadelphia, where only 12.5% of the machines are down.

The site also offers a map and tells you if the ice cream machines are working, broken or inconclusive. And if you're craving ice cream and McDonald's is down, you can find a handy Wendy's option.
