My friend sent me the link to this message at the FatWallet forums

KFC thought they were smart by embedding a single frame special offer into their commercials to entice their customers with Tivo to watch their ads. Well, clearly at FW, we're smarter than that. Get a $1.00 Gift Check for a FREE buffalo snacker by following these simple instructions. Be sure to use Internet Explorer.

1) Go to http//www.kfc.com/buffalosnacker
2) Enter code BUFFALO


The special offer kicks off at 900 a.m. ET on February 23, 2006 and will continue while supplies last (75,000 coupons available) until 700 p.m. ET on March 3, 2006 even if supplies remain at that time. No purchase necessary. Limit one coupon per email address. Limit one coupon per household. Must be 18 years old to participate. Valid at participating restaurants in the United States and the District of Columbia only. Each gift check is worth $1.00 and is only redeemable toward the purchase of products at participating KFC restaurants in the United States and the District of Columbia. It may not be redeemed for cash. All taxes are payable by Bearer.

Hmm....interesting advertising scheme. It sounds like a good idea, but who actually watches the commercials played back on their DVR/VCR? I could only guess that only the people that notice the quick frame will catch on. Either way, I still get free $1 credit at KFC wink +Karma

argh!

Thank you for "cracking the secret code" for KFC's new Buffalo Snacker. Unfortunately, due to the popularity of this promotion, we have reached the 75,000 give-a-way limit. You can still try the new Buffalo Snacker at your local KFC restaurant.

Taxing bastards....

I doubt it, but I wonder if I use two $1 checks, if they'd give the rest back in change, or if I have to use it all on product.

It's basically a gift certificate worth 1$. You're not gonna get change back because it would probably worth more than the snacker. If we could've done that, i would have gotten at least 100 of those snackers certificates (before they expired) and get my 100$ cash, put it into my bank, and then buy 100$ worth of greens......

The Snacker costs 99 cents [i5d5582b2d1]plus tax[/i5d5582b2d1]. The check is for $1.

What I was wondering, but not expecting, was whether or not the retail location would accept two checks for total coverage of the purchase, and give back the [i5d5582b2d1]remainder[/i5d5582b2d1] of the second check as change.

I never imagined you could. That said, it [i5d5582b2d1]does[/i5d5582b2d1] appear to be a check, but one limited for franchisees to cash. (It's payable by a bank, and not some corporate office)

I got a couple of them, so I'll probably use them towards some meal, and pay the difference. I wasn't looking to convert them to cash. )
