Keep some dignity and avoid Denny’s Free Grand Slam

It is $6.99! For goodness sakes stay away from Denny’s tomorrow. People are going to line up early early in the morning in hopes of getting free pancakes, eggs, and bacon. There will be some people who will take the day off from work to get a free meal.

This makes no sense from the point of view of the consumer – sure you save a few dollars but you better tip your waiter/waitress. But take a day off of work? Lets guess you make $80 for the day – you are using a paid vacation day or worse not making your $80 to save 7-8 bucks.

And it is a news media bloodbath – because as you know there is no news but soft news. But for the most part it will be great publicity for Denny’s. People will be talking about Denny’s. Yes, the reports could be negative that people waited all day and got nothing. Or that Denny’s restaurants ran out of food at 10am. That will make some people mad.

However, any publicity even bad publicity is still publicity. And somehow Denny’s will benefit.

Me? I will keep my dignity and maybe I will spend $6.99 with 20% tip another day. But tomorrow – I am going to the gym an extra hour to just to make up the calories other people will be consuming.
