No Chicken Nuggets? Call 911!!!

Now that's what I call a craving! Satisfy your need for nuggets and fries with a FREE McDonald's gift card.

Told McDonald’s was out of Chicken McNuggets after paying for a 10-piece meal, a local woman called 911.

Three times.

“This is an emergency, If I would have known they didn’t have McNuggets, I wouldn’t have given my money, and now she wants to give me a McDouble, but I don’t want one,” Latreasa L. Goodman told police. “This is an emergency.”

The McNugget meltdown happened last week at a McDonald’s in the 600 block of North U.S. 1 and ended with Goodman, 27, getting a notice to appear in court on a misuse of 911 charge, according to a recently released police report.

Goodman told investigators she tried to get a refund for the 10-piece McNuggets, but the cashier told her all sales are final.

“I called 911 because I couldn’t get a refund, and I wanted my McNuggets,” Goodman told police.

The cashier told police she offered Goodman, of the 2400 block of South 25th Street, a larger portion of food for the same price to make up for it, but said Goodman got “irate,” the report states.

Goodman reportedly yelled, “I don’t want a McDouble and small fry,” the cashier told investigators.

Dispatchers for 911 told police Goodman called the emergency number three times and on each occasion was told an officer was en route.

“Goodman maintained the attitude ‘this is an emergency, my McNuggets are an emergency,’” the report states.

McNuggets, introduced to the McDonald’s national menu in 1983, are sold in more than 100 countries and often are dunked in barbecue or hot mustard sauce. Goodman’s 10-piece selection has 460 calories and 29 grams of fat.

On Tuesday, Goodman said she agreed to get a McDouble in lieu of the McNuggets as long as she also got the difference in price back. Goodman said the only menu items she cares for are McNuggets and McDoubles.

Goodman claimed a McDonald’s worker wouldn’t give her the difference in money back, so Goodman decided she wanted a full refund.

Free $500 Gift Card to Ruth's Chris Steakhouse?

noreply@blogger.com (gourmet) — Wed, 27 Aug 2008 14:26:00 +0000

Here is my first of many "free offers" I will review related to Food & Drink

Now who doesn't love a good Steak? I recently went to Ruth's Chris steakhouse for my birthday with my family. It's somewhere I try to go as often as I can, but it always seems to get a little pricey. So later that night I spent some time doing some research online that allows me to go there a little more often. This is what I've found.

I will examine this offer under the following criteria

1. How/Where can it be found?

I went ahead and did a search on google for Ruth's Chris and came across this link I found it through a listing of Ruth's Chris Steakhouse . You may find this same listing on the right side of the page using Ruth's Chris.

2. What company offers this deal? After doing some research I found out that the company is called World Avenue. Apparently, they offer other products for free. At this point, I became a little skeptical. But I wanted to find out what this was about.

3. What is required to receive this- in terms of effort and cost?

You’ll need to have basic mailing information (name, address, email etc.), anywhere from 35 minutes to 2 hours to spend reviewing and signing up for low cost offers, a secure internet connection (I’m assuming you have one if you’re reading this), $0 if you use the Refer-A-Friend option (we’ll get to that later).

4. My personal experience with this offer?

I went through the offer path slowly to document my experience for you. After a few short survey questions I got to the sponsored offers page. Here is where you can choose to sign up for trial offers and subscriptions such as 30-day Netflix or Blockbuster memberships (which some of you probably want to get anyway). You also have the option to use Refer-A-Friend to receive any of World Avenue’s offers without paying any cost. Which I felt was a great deal. I cant wait to recieve my gift card to Ruth's Chris so I go again. I wil update you once i receive it!!!
