Free McDonald's smoothie or frappe

[frugalwarrior2]

druthb00- I hope your right. DD just got #3. I don't know if she is sharing w/ DBF?? Bad girl. I did have one MCD's say no w/o purchase. That's not what the coupon says. i will e-mail corporate,as it say NO purchased required. Hew said it's because they're a franchise. AREN"T they ALL franchises. He said he was the manager which i also doubt. Why don't they realize it will cost them much more than $2.79 (less for the profit) when i tell everyone and avoid that MC D's. It's the 1 my dd's college friends go to. Not smart,not.

We had no problem getting our free ones with the coupon. And we ordered nothing else. Hubby got the frappe and loved it. Too sweet for me. I got the wild berry, but wasn't too impressed. It wasn't thick, but runny.

Well we got 2 before that no prob. and we went to a fourth also no prob. Like i said-It's that kind of petty garbo that makes people not come back. He get the money for his store regardless. It's a corporate coupon. I am trying to decide about calling in. It's not the frappe as much as the annoyance.kwim??

I say call in to corporate to notify them that one of their franchise stores isn't honouring their coupon. Head Office needs to know

I was in another forum yesterday and someone said that their McD's wouldn't honor the coupon. They called corp. and corp. told them since they are franchised, they have the freedom to accept the Q or to not accept it. I didn't like that answer but.....what are ya gonna do.
