DOUBLE FREE FOOD ALERT
For some reason two mega chains both chose today to hold free stuff promotions. From 10am to 10pm you can get a free 16 oz Iced Coffee from any Dunkin Donuts location, and McDonald’s will be giving away free Southern Style Chicken Biscuits for breakfast, and Southern Style Chicken sandwiches for lunch and dinner, with the purchase of any medium or large drink. Now go and freeload!

EVil McDonald’s at 4th Ave/St. Marks had the free chicken biscuit. The counterperson seemed shyly bemused by the fact someone had heard of the promotion. Received the free biscuit (after purchasing a large coffee) with no fuss. Then, the f’n 6 train went out of commission, and I couldn’t try the free biscuit until after it had grown tepid. Will try for DD free iced coffee later.

McDonald’s on 42nd b/w 5th and Madison is participating. I went in this morning around 7:45 and bought a medium orange juice ($2.05) with free chicken biscuit. The sandwich–a biscuit with a biscuit-sized crispy chicken on top–tasted fine but left a strange film of grease on my hands. Though I haven’t eaten McD’s in years and now feel like a braindead slug, it was free!

4 or 6 of us took part in our free biscuit sammich this morning on 46th and 6th.
Same deal goes for lunch, if you buy their 99 cent 32oz sweet tea drink which is apparently freshly made as someone in my office who has had it a few times thinks, they will count that as your medium or large drink towards a free sandwich.
Oh and I went to Chick Fil A yesterday downtown only to find out they had closed for the summer.
*sigh*

McD’s in Times Square (47th and 7th) was doing it too…
went there this AM with 2 friends, each a a sweet tea (their sweet tea is damn good, esp for $1.08) and got our sandwiches. Then I went to buy a tea for another co-worker and she asked if I wanted another sandwich, so I was able to get more than 1.
I will be back for lunch.
I will try and DD near the Port Authority (42 and 9th) later on…

If you refuse to take advantage of free food
the terrorists have won.
It’s as simple as that.

Call me crazy but I’m much more fearful of Natural Disasters than Terrorists, maybe I watch CNN to much or have lived here 27 years to long in NYC, I dunno.
However it is my patriotic duty to make sure the Terrorists do not win, so I will re-visit McDonalds for lunch to take advantage of their giveaway! USA! USA! USA!

I just finished my chicken sandwich. Its pretty tasty (better tasting chicken than I’ve ever had at Mickey D’s), and topped with nothing but pickles.

Ok.. I just finished my chicken sandwich. It was really disappointing. The outside batter was, at least, seasoned but the inside was processed McNugget McChicken. Yuk.
But as a patriot and glutton I finished it nevertheless! The highlight was the Sweet Tea. Really good! I mean, I was surprised! It totally filled that Allen&Son’s sweet tea craving.

Hang in there Mamacita!!! The nauseous feeling goes away after a few. It’s amazing how free food and drink can turn my frown upside down.

42nd @ 7th is good to go, but Sweet Tea doesn’t count for the drink. Sandwich isn’t so good but free food is great :-)

BTW this sandwich has 420 calories and 20 grams of fat!!! For a little nothing sandwich that’s greasy and full of chicken garbage…maybe not such a bad idea to pass up on the free offer….

Oh Mels, where the f%$#k where you when i was waiting in line for 20 minutes for that piece of crap??? I should have known really.
BTW, my belly is better now. I just consoled it with a fajita burrito made at home.
