Possible Free Cupcake Alert: Is This Deja Vu?
Grub Street is reporting that Crumbs will finally be doing their 1000 cupcake giveaway this Friday at three different stores in Manhattan- including the new Midtown location on Madison and 52nd. Only one catch: none of the stores have been told yet. A call to the Madison location (in particular) got this response: “Uh… I don’t think so. It may be on the 6th but we haven’t received confirmation from our corporate offices yet.” Wow. I think Crumbs is on track to win the most disorganized company in all of Midtown award.
As you know, the last “Free 1000 Cupcake” thing ended up turning into a “free samples at random times” thing. Hopefully corporate will let the stores know in time for us to enjoy free cupcakes on Friday morning!

Actually, I think Gothamist was wrong and they were never giving out free Obama/McCain cupcakes, but instead selling them (well, I know they were selling them because a friend bought one of each yesterday). I assumed Grub Street was right on the giveaways, but I guess we’ll see.

Yes, yes i seem to remember her profile.
A saucy wench i’ll wager!
i wonder if that intel comes from this: http://gothamist.com/2008/11/04/obama_beating_out_mccain_in_cupcake.php
in which case I highly doubt. I stopped by two Crumbs yesterday and they weren’t giving out free anything.
