My son loves to go to “Old McDonald’s.” Nope, not the farm. The fast food joint. It’s what he calls it, and I haven’t corrected him. It’s just too darn cute. We’ve made a habit out of going after swim class on Fridays. The boys adore their milkshakes. And, it makes me happy that every Happy Meal comes with apples and a true kid-sized portion of fries. Even better? The kids eat like champs in the car.
The other thing I dig about McDonald’s is the coffee. (My name is Katie, and I’m addicted to caffeine.) There’s never a Starbuck drive-thru when a momma needs one, but a McDonald’s drive-thru? Yeah, those are easy to come by, and you can get a small coffee for $1 any time. That’s so cheap, even Denise might buy it!
Recently, I was offered to participate in a VIP Blogger Program with Charlotte-area McDonald’s. I said yes, and now will be able to share with you specials and freebies from the golden arches. As an introduction, I’ve been given quite a few freebies that I’d like to pass on to y’all.
I’ll be giving away FIVE sets to lucky Mom Favorites readers. Each McDonald’s Freebie Set includes: 1 Free Happy Meal, 1 Small McCafe Beverage, 1 Free Premium Salad, 1 Free Fish McBites or Filet-O-Fish Sandwich, and 1 Free Oatmeal. (Can be redeemed at any NC or SC Area McDonald’s before 12/31/13.)
