Never liked this kind of "promotions". For me, rather than paying $8 (or whatever) for a crappy burger so that $2 can go to a worthy cause, I would rather give the whole $8 to the worthy cause and skip the so called promotion. IF I was going to eat there ANYWAYS then OK but to go specifically to spend $8 to donate $2??, I don't get it.
Your choice to participate or not. No one is making you do anything.
I wasn't aware that anything in my post suggested that anyone was "making" me or anyone else participate. I apologize if I gave that impression, I just posted MY choice and why. Others are free to do as they please. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
Hey, no problemo. That teen burger costs 8 bucks today and it will be 8 bucks tomorrow. It's the franchisee and franchisor that's contributing the $2 form every teen burger bought today. They are giving up their margins.
Yes, I understand how it works (and $2 is PART of their margins, they would all close in a month if all they made was $2 per burger). To be clear, there is nothing "wrong" with these kinds of promotions, in fact, they are a good idea. I just don't see the point going there SPECIFICALLY because one wants to donate to the cause when they could just put the whole $8 to the cause. If you plan to eat there anyways, now is the time to do so. Just my opinion, not suggesting anyone follow this opinion or change their own, just sharing mine.
Most have a donation box too for those who don't want to have a teen burger.
A donation box? They didn’t even have any signage about this event. They should have had a box before you order at the drive through. Wonder if all locations participated? Believe me if I would have seen a donation box I would have dropped in a fin and been on my way to Dairy Queen. No matter now..it’s done.
Some franchisees just don't do a good job of getting behind a fundraiser.
Amen to that. I won't go near the local one yet Ladysmith & Campbell River are fine.
