FREE CHICKEN - McDonalds launched a new sandwich a couple of weeks ago...their new Southern Style Chicken Biscuit (for breakfast) and Southern Style Chicken Sandwich (for lunch and dinner). McDonalds is trying to compete with Chick-fil-A which I guess sells chicken sandwiches for breakfast (this is the first foray into chicken at breakfast for McDonalds). Checking online these sandwiches aren't exactly low cal with the chicken biscuit at 420 calories and the Crispy Chicken Club coming in at 660 calories. But since McDonalds wants you to try these new sandwiches out, they are giving them away for free tomorrow, May 15th. With the purchase of a regular or large drink, you can get for free a chicken biscuit (between 7 AM and 10:30 AM) or a chicken sandwich (from 10:30 AM to 7 PM). I'm sure it's for the "regular" and plain version of the biscuit/sandwich. Since I pass a MickeyD's on the way to work, I think I'll stop and try one of their new chicken biscuits...with a regular coffee of course! For more info go here.
FREE COFFEE - If you don't want McDonalds but do want something free tomorrow, how about some free Dunkin Donuts iced coffee? Tomorrow, stop by a Dunkin Donuts between 10 AM and 10 PM and you can pick up a free 16 ounce iced coffee. You can get it regular or in one of their special flavors (like Berry Berry or Toasted Almond). For more info go here.
DANCE LIKE A CHICKEN - Mr. L went by our local KFC the other day only to find it gone. Seriously, the whole building GONE. Just dirt and dust. The last time this happened was to our local KFC when we lived in Campbell...fortunately that turned into a combo KFC/A&W franchise. We can only hope that our disappearing KFC will be reinventing itself to the combo version sometime soon. It's not nice when one has a craving for Hot Wings and there is no place to get them! But what does this have to do with dancing like a chicken? Well, today is Dance Like A Chicken Day (hey folks, I only report them, I don't make them up). So, sometime today, dance like a chicken...just make sure your boss isn't watching at the time or you might have some explaining to do.
I tried the McDonald's chicken sandwich as there is no Chick-fil-A around here and I missed it. It was decent but certainly not C-F-A.
