Wendy’s is having a contest right now called a “Fry-For-All”. This promotion is to bring attention to their brand new Natural-Cut fries. You could end up winning some free fries, or one of the many bigger prizes that are a part of this contest, including an iPad.
Wendy’s new fries are called Natural-Cut fries. They are have the potato skin still on them, and are seasoned with sea salt. Are they healthier than the previous version of Wendy’s fries? I have no idea, but the sure do look yummy in their advertisement.
In order to take part in “Fry-For-All” contest from Wendy’s you need to log into Facebook, and click the “like” button on the Wendy’s fan page. This is supposed to automatically give you a coupon for free Natural-Cut fries from Wendy’s, which you need to print out, and bring with on your next visit. Make sure your printer is ready to go before you get to this point. Mine wasn’t, and it didn’t go very smoothly.
This contest started on December 6, 2010, and will end on January 31, 2010. After you click “like” on the Wendy’s Facebook page, you will be given directions about how to post a small box of french fries to your own Facebook wall. Here is where it gets complex! Your Facebook friends have to go to your wall, and “take” one of the virtual fries, until all five of the fries are gone. The friends that take a virtual french fry will get one “instant win” game play, and they will be instantly notified if they win a prize. If your friend wins a prize, you will win that exact same prize as well. When your box of five virtual french fries is empty, you can return to the Wendy’s Facebook page, for a box that contains twenty five virtual fries. The game continues the same way, until all the fries have been taken out of the box by your Facebook friends.
Wendy’s is offering some awesome prizes in this contest. Eighteen people will win an Apple iPad. Eighteen more people will win an Xbox KINECT. Sixteen people will win a home theater system. Fourteen people are going to win a Nintendo Wii. Forty-eight people will win a flip video camera, and sixty four people will win an apple iPod. If you don’t win one of those people, don’t worry, you might be one of 2,500 people who win a Wendy’s gift card that is worth $5.00.
