For F's Sake! Who the hell at TGIF thought it would be a good idea to pollute their website with an audio track of the commotion of a restaurant. I had the website loaded to find a store, and later put my headphones on and I had to search through my tabs to find the noise.

Apparently it's not the end of the month. I just went to the location on 46th and broadway, and they said the promotion ended, so we walked out.
I got curry goat from Caribbean Spice instead.

I sent in a complaint to TGIF, using this form:

Didn't do much good though. This is what I got back:

So basically they said "You're f*cked and we don't care" - very nice.

Until the end of the month, $5 gets you either the Jack Daniels burger or chicken sandwich (both with optional cheese/lettuce/tomato/bacon/onion rings/pickle + fries on the side). Midtown menu price $16.99! I'd say true value is around $8-10, so it's still a great deal. The Times Square location is participating, so I'd imagine all of the rest are as well.
