Same thing with the Subway "buy 1 sandwich get 1 free" promotion. Or how about the time KFC was giving away 2 piece grilled chicken meals, and they were literally running out of chicken across the country?

Yeah and what does that breakfast wrap cost a buck? 1.49 tops? Yet there they were lined up out into the main street waiting waiting waiting. Its the same people who will fight you for the last bottle of Dove dishwashing liquid at the Dollar Tree because everything is a dollar. None the wiser its 50 cents every day at the travel supply bin at Walmart.
There was a woman on the local news just beside herself. She got in line shortly before end of breakfast and promotion finally got to the window well after promotion had ended. She ordered her free wrap and was told they had run out over an hour ago she asked for rain check and was denied. She demanded to see the manager and was granted and still did not get the answer she wanted. This woman was so pissed and bitchy she would probably spend 1000s dollars in legal fee's to get her free dollar wrap. If the fat ass would have gotten up early she would have already shit out that mess.
