Still remember last month there’s a Mid Month Special BUY 1 FREE 1 a la carte Chicken McNuggets (6pcs) by McDonald’s? Did you manage to redeem the Buy 1 FREE 1 Chicken McNuggets? I didn’t manage to redeem the BUY 1 FREE 1 Chicken McNuggets and I knew a lot of you also couldn’t redeem it.

McDonald's BUY 1 FREE 1 Chicken McNuggets

Why? This is because the print out coupon / voucher is too small (must be larger than 9cm * 21cm) or not according to the stated size in the vouchers. My colleague printed out the vouchers but didn’t notice the fine print in the T&C. Don’t you think 9cm * 21cm is just too big for a voucher? (After claim then the voucher will be thrown away and addon to the waste?)

Wrong measurement for McDonald's BUY 1 FREE 1 Chicken McNuggets Promotion
Wrong voucher size printed. Only difference of 1cm and 0.3cm?

Correct measurement for McDonald's BUY 1 FREE 1 Chicken McNuggets Promotion
Correct voucher size. (9cm * 21cm)

McDonald's BUY 1 FREE 1 Chicken McNuggets Promotion Gimmick
Do you know that they actually have a ruler at the counter just to measure the coupon? OMG!

The question is WHY McDonald’s want to do such promotion and need you to print such a big size vouchers whereby 1 A4 paper can only print 1 vouchers vs 1 A4 paper could actually print 4 vouchers? This is not environmentally friendly right? Or actually the promotion is just a gimmick and McDonald’s know that a lot people out there will not read the T&C and want to limit to the Buy 1 Free 1 promotion?

Next time do read the T&C clearly and hope that all the other company which is running promotion be more considerate and don’t waste paper. I suggest that we could just show the coupon in our smartphone instead of printout that would be easier and will save a lot more of the resources don’t you think so? Do our part and be more environmentally friendly so that our next generation will still be able to enjoy what they are supposed to.

Every wonder Popeyes is a franchise fast food chain in Malaysia?

Family Set
Family Set

Popeyes - Juicy and Spicy Chicken
Popeyes – Juicy and Spicy Chicken. It’s way better than KFC and McDonal’s Fried Chicken. The worst thing is KFC just opposite this Popeyes in Taman Tun,TTDI. So I think there will be less ppl go to KFC since the quality is better and price is almost the same.

Shrimp
This shrimp is much bigger and better than KFC Shrimp Stix.

Mash potato
The Mashed Potatoes with Cajun Gravy – is nice, but some ppl might not like it as it got a bit garlic taste.

Coleslaws
Coleslaws – Normal saja…

Bun
Bun / Biscuit – Very nice!

McDonalds Mega Mac vs Carl's JR Burger

Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008 5,670 views

Big Mac vs Mega Mac
Big Mac vs Mega Mac. Price of Big Mac for medium set is RM8.30 and Price of Mega Mac for medium set is RM13.50 different of RM5.20 bucks!

Mcd Mega Mac
See how huge it is… McD Mega Mac

The Big Mac is a hamburger consisting of two 1.6 oz (45.4 g) beef patties, iceberg lettuce, American cheese, pickles, onion and special McDonald’s “Mac” sauce (a Thousand Island dressing variant) served on a three part sesame seed bun.

The Mega Mac – four 1.6 oz (45.4 g) beef patties and an extra slice of cheese. Available in Ireland, Japan and Malaysia. Discontinued in Australia, New Zealand and the United Kingdom, limited availability in the United States and Canada (where it is commonly marketed under the name Double Big Mac).

The Big Mac was created by Jim Delligatti, one of Ray Kroc’s earliest franchisees, who was operating several restaurants in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania area. [10] Customer response to the Big Mac was so good that it rolled-out nationally in 1968. According to its advertising jingle, it consists of “two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun“, though the most distinctive feature is a middle layer of bread (“club”) used to stabilize contents and prevent spillage.

The Big Mac is known worldwide and is often used as a symbol of American capitalism. The Economist has used it as a reference point to determine the cost of living in different countries — the Big Mac Index — since it is so widely available and is comparable across markets. This index is sometimes referred to as Burgernomics [11]

Two all beef patties slogan

The Two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun. concept for the jingle was created by Charles Rosenberg, Creative Supervisor of the Dan Nichols team at Needham, Harper and Steers, Chicago. Originally, the ingredients appeared as a one-wo

rd heading for a McDonald’s ad developed for college newspapers. The words were then set to music created by Mark Vieha, who performed the original jingle. Charlie’s advertising concept was to purposely turn the ingredients into a tongue twister. The jingle first appeared in a TV commercial titled “In a Word” developed by Dan and the advertising agency team. The first run of commercials ran only a year and a half, going off the air in 1976, but its popularity remained beyond its TV life.

Many franchisees in the United States ran promotions during the original campaign that awarded a free burger to customers who could recite the slogan within a specified time (usually two or three seconds). One example of its success, was that the McDonald’s operators in New York City actually ran out of Big Mac buns. McDonald’s Australia emulated this promotion in the mid-1980s, and some Brazilian McDonald’s around the same time (only offering a free glass of Coca-Cola instead), in the Portuguese version, which goes as “Dois hamburgueres, alface, queijo, molho especial, cebola e pickles num pão com gergelim”.

In 2003, McDonald’s revived the phrase. In an English-language ad from McDonald’s international “i’m lovin’ it” campaign, a rapper rapidly spouts off the trademark in the background music. Also in 2003, American Greetings and Carlton Cards released a Christmas ornament of a Big Mac, on which the slogan was both printed and played aloud by pulling on a string. Roy Bergold, National Advertising Manager at McDonald’s, has a big hand in championing the original campaign and helping to bring it back.

In 2008, once again, the phrase was revived by McDonald’s Malaysia. The revival includes the original prize of a free Big Mac if the customer is able to recite the phrase in under four seconds. This was released in May, along with the promotional Mega Mac, which has four beef patties rather than the original two.[12]
