It used to be that finding coupons for McDonald’s was a rare instance in the Sunday paper or a local ad insert. Now the McMarketers seem to be taking a more proactive approach to discounts by mailing promo coupons straight to its desired demographics, and I couldn’t be happier.
I’ve already encountered no fewer than three mailings to Korean Americans — mostly in Korean — including coupons for free Southern Style Chicken Sandwiches and Biscuits, no purchase necessary. While I’ve personally been left out of the biscuit bonanza myself, it would make sense to assume that other ethnic groups were targeted by McDonald’s for their latest product offerings as well. It’s also good to know that friends and family are perfectly willing to donate their mailing-list prizes, even if the food items aren’t exactly best in class. (Free food is still free food.)

If you don’t have enough places to go this Thursday, add Dunkin’ Donuts to your list, ’cause it’s Free Iced Coffee Day ‘08 — and you’re invited.
The official web site runs down this deal pretty well, so as long as you hit a participating shop between 10 A.M. and 10 P.M. on the 15th, you should be all right. Oh, and I prefer my iced coffee with lots of sugar.
Here’s the rest ah’ the fine print: “Cannot be combined with any other offer. One free small 16 oz. Iced Coffee per person, per visit.” Found the link courtesy o’ CAG.
