Nationwide Free Frosty Giveaway at Wendy’s

This weekend at Wendy's nationwide, Frostys are on the house. From Friday, May 13, through Sunday, May 15, consumers can pick up a free Junior Frosty at their local Wendy's restaurant. No purchase is required for customers to receive the free dessert.The company estimates it will give away more than 14 million Junior Frostys during the special three-day event.

"We're thanking our loyal customers for their support following the incident in San Jose," saus Tom Mueller, Wendy's president and chief operating officer. "Dave Thomas insisted we always 'do the right thing,' and we have kept our word. Our customers stood by us while we defended our good name and protected our employees' livelihoods, so now we're showing our appreciation with free Frostys."

Wendy's recently conducted the same offering in the San Francisco Bay area and Sacramento. Customers turned out in record numbers and stores gave away more than 100,000 Frostys. National TV and print advertising will be used to highlight this weekend's promotion.

I read this when I was looking up Tim Hortons, apparently they are owned by the same person.

Free finger but from what I gather, you have to supply your own.

Just as long as I don't find one in my Timmy's!! (I like McDonald's shakes over Frosty's anyways)

(Yes - they are now both owned by Wendy's Corp. - Tim Horton's started in Toronto in the late 60s by Tim Horton the hockey player (died in a car accident). They are HUGE here - one on almost every corner and most people like them way better than Starbucks or anything else!
