The post, not the burger. :) Friar, You drove to Big City for this? That makes it even more unusual. Social, Yes, she's a bright one. Kids often see right through the fluff. Like the Emperor's New Clothes. When we grow up, we have to work pretty hard to keep that very direct point of view. Welcome and thanks for the comment! Regards, Kelly Brett,

Social,

Yes, she’s a bright one. Kids often see right through the fluff. Like the Emperor’s New Clothes. When we grow up, we have to work pretty hard to keep that very direct point of view.

You coulda gone to the "Big City" to get one, but you'd end up burning $12 in gas for a $2.79 free burger. Brett

A free burger...no coupons, no strings attached. I went through drive-through, ordered one, and they said my total was "Zero" (Sweetest words I've never heard!) I think it was a brilliant marketing ploy. The place was jam-packed, with wall-to-wall people, lined up outside the door. Some (like me) just went for the free burger. But many, as I predicted, also bought the fries and drinks especially the families with kids). I don't think they lost any money. What's funny, is a burger is only worth a few bucks. But give it away for free, and everyone (including me) will be beating a path to their front door. Pretty smart advertising, if you ask me. Kudos to Harveys. Hi Kelly
