Free movie and free dinner!

February 7th, 2008 at 03:23 am

A couple of days ago I read a blog entry about Red Box. We hadn't tried it but when we saw one of their kiosks at Wal-Mart last night, we decided to give it a shot. While trying to rent "The Far Side of Jericho" we got a code for a free movie. So, I went today after work and picked up "The Good Shepherd" and snagged some fried chicken and potato salad while there. The chicken I got was the 12 piece special for $4.99 but when I got home I discovered we'd only gotten 8 pieces! I called the store to let them know (nicely, of course) and they told me to bring in my receipt tomorrow and they'd refund the money for the chicken and the potato salad. Wooohooo, that's free food and a free movie! Hard to beat either one of those but both being free is just really great!

    Haha, Oh great compulsive debtor, I know what you mean! I'd been craving it for days and finally caved in to get some. Those 12 pieces if I'd gotten them all at $4.99 would have fed us 3 meals each! That was my game plan but getting it free has foiled me. Wink

    I prefer Popeye's Fried Chicken myself. Is it obvious I just moved to the Midwest from New Orleans?

    I like Popeye's too but until very recently was a die hard KFC fan. However, their switch to the new oil has made me all but a former customer. The chicken just doesn't taste the same and I rarely eat it now.

    Nothing beats dead animal flesh for dinner!

    Redbox is a great deal! They have pretty obscure movies but I usually like those the best anyway. Our last movie was scratched so we got two free rentals.
