This is absolutely no shade to people who make use of them but I am continually surprised how food places get mobbed when they give out a 2 dollar item. I would rather pay the 2 dollars than have to be like I deserve this medium French fry because I was at IheartCountry’s hockey goalapalooza
what do you have against goalapaloozas
You didn't have the ticket stub from the IheartCountry's Hockey Goalapalooza when you went to redeem your free medium fry did you?
I would pay way more than 2 extra dollars not to stand in a ridiculous line.
Like I will regularly spend 2 or 3 dollars to not have to say embarrassing sentences to service workers
And to get ‘Moons Over My Hammy’?
I just never want to wait in a long ass line for like a donut or a tiny scoop of ice cream. And I love donuts and ice cream!
I vaguely remember some thing years and years ago where Burger King would give you a dollar off a chicken sandwich if you clucked at the cashier and all I could think of is that this was not a world I could believe in
My dad once ordered a double cheeseburger from McDonald's by asking for a "double double cheese cheese burger burger please please."
& you thought "I have too much self respect for this! After all, I'm a shitposter!"
Two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles and onions. All in a sesame seed bun.
My wife and I have a standing rule - if either of us ever sets the other up at a restaraunt for a "Happy Birthday" song from the staff, divorce papers will be served the next morning. I can not imagine clucking for a cashier to save $1
We have a Bojangles thing with the Carolina Hurricanes, where you say something like "put the biscuit in the basket" for a Bo-berry biscuit. Never have I ever...
What the heck, I always cluck at the cashier and I've never gotten any discount, either at Burger King or any other establishment.
Back in the day, IHOP made people say “rooty tooty fresh and fruity” in order to get the discount on those pancakes. Backfired when drunk high schoolers (us) were in there at 2 am screaming it over and over.
For the 80s kids.... "I'm not the Herb you're looking for"
I ate a chocolate covered cricket at Cold Stone once for free ice cream so you and I are not the same, but respect.
trying to figure out whether I would a) find this totally soul-destroying or b) do it with mild amusement and no second thought has made me realize that I should probably just carry around a big coin like Two-Face
Me after I get the sandwich:
Rooty Tooty Fresh & Fruity is too hard for me to say in public.
$2 for a donut at a place i can be in and out of in 4 minutes is worth more than a free donut that i have to wait 45 minutes for
When your go-to meal was Dennys Rooty Tooty Fresh and Fruity, you learn to take the dignity hit.
THE HEIGHT OF PRIVILEGE.
I saw 2 dollar Jacks pizzas yesterday at the store and texted four people about it
I have exactly the opposite sentiment if there is a way to get free food I have probably done it. This might be leftover trauma from grad school I had dozens of Krispy Kreme donuts in 2021 bc if you showed your vaxx card you could get one for free. EVERY day
This place gives out free donuts all the time
I'll pay ten bucks tomorrow and wait five minutes than stand in line for hours for "free"
I would pay 2 dollars just to not have to be in a crowd
Johnny Cash: 🎶Other guys could offer more, But she loved the boy next door! Who worked at the Donut store!🎵🍩
There was a Ben & Jerry's where I went to college that gave out a free cone once a year and the line was around the block. Even as a broke college student with an annual income of negative 30,000 a year, I was like "I value my time too much to stand in a 2 hour line for a 2 dollar cone."
I worked at a Culver's when they did an anniversary hamburger deal where you got it for like 85¢, limit 20!! The drive thru line was an hour long. We probably gave a LOOOOT of people food poisoning that night
Hey do you think they'll still give me a free doughnut for being vaccinated? I never claimed mine in 2021.
It is genuinely an incredible bit to celebrate this by giving out the blandest thing on the menu
