Wow, wtf is happening?

I got a large fountain drink for $1.25 the other day. McD's is messing with us.



Like my buddy would say, "It's because I'm jewish, right?"

Walmart rolled back their price on 946 mL International Delight Creamers. $3.97 starting yesterday. BTW, Walmart stopped price matching last year. Save-On-Foods, Shoppers Drug Mart, and Superstore are the only ones left that price match. Anyway…………..

McDonald's still has $1.00 any size coffee. I thought it ended last week, but it keeps showing up on my app.

99˘ Frosty at Wendy's. Free large fries with any mobile order.

Free Nashville Chicken Burger with minimum dollar purchase at Burger King via app. Got one last week, but it's still on my app.

Popeye's has 1/4 lb shrimp for $2.99 with purchase. No app needed. I bought their biscuit for 99˘ and got the deal. I ordered one of their deep fried Strawberry Cream Cheese Pies, but it didn't work. Lady goes, get a biscuit and you'll get the shrimp for $2.99. BTW, the biscuit was pretty good. Through their app, you get a free pie with any combo order, so it was a toss up. The pie is pretty darn good. $1.29, IIRC. I went to the Kingsway near 10th avenue location.

So many good deals out there..........

Burger King has $1 ice cream cone as well no coupon needed.

I had the free Nashville hot chicken. It was ok. Very spicy.
It still shows on my app but if I click it I just get a blank. Can’t use it again.

Just went to use the App offer to try the $1 Nashville Hot Chicken, very meh. Ordered Jalapeno Poppers for $1.99. $3 lunch
I actually preferred the Ghost Pepper McChicken.

Is it just me getting older or picky taste buds or BK in general has gone downhill in quality? Over the years the last 3-4 times I went there for Whoppers and various burgers have been far below average. Dry and tasteless. Doesn't have the flame-broiled taste I remember from 10+ years back.

My go-to fast food burger now is Five Guys,

Same here, I find myself always switching the fries to the baked potato.
I used to dip my McDonald's fries into the milk shake or scrape off the soft serve... SO GOOD!... haha I thought I was the only weird one that does that ...

Hi Five Chicken on Hastings near Kensington Square is celebrating their first anniversary. Free drumstick with any order from June 19th to the 25th. One day only, on the 19th, a free cheesecake with any order. Only at the Hastings location.

I wAnder if they still give out two free drumsticks for showing your Covid card and ID?

Large pieces and different enough that it's noteworthy. Bottom line, I get it because of the Groupon. Sides are alright.

One chicken place to avoid is the Korean chicken place on Broadway. Donkey Kong or something along those lines. Maybe because they opened up not that long ago, but I haven't felt "ripped off" at a restaurant in a long time.

Also, anyone been to Carp Sushi and Bowl across from Kingsgate Mall? Highly rated, so I went. Not impressed. I didn't get their poke bowl. Maybe that's why?

Oh wow, I didn't know Groupon was still a thing! The 10 piece for 23 is not bad. They have deals from time to time on Ubereats for b1g1 as well.

Too bad I already have three. I used to go Superstore on Marine Drive to charge for free. Then get cheap flowers from Niki Florists before picking up the chick’n. Now that the charging isn’t free, not going anytime soon.

The Groupon is only valid on weekdays.

There is a Groupon voucher for Pinnacle Lobby Restaurant in North Vancouver, near the Lonsdale Quay, a 3 course meal for $92 for 2 people ... pretty decent deal. Great appies, great entre selections, and for dessert - either Tiramisu or Creme Brule!

https://www.groupon.com/deals/the-lo...nacle-hotel-16

Menu:
Starter: Wagyu beef carpaccio, summer berry quinoa salad, grilled octopus nicoise, or lobster and crab bisque
Entree: pan seared sea bass, lobster capellini, red thai curry, duck a l’orange, or opal valley lamb
Dessert: tiramisu, or creme brulle

When there is a sale like 20% off anything on Groupon, it's a steeeaaaaallll!
