Shamrock Shakes Still Going? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Does anyone know if McDonald's is still selling them up through the end of March? I always anticipate getting one, but I always forget. I thought about the shake yesterday morning while reading someone's mention in the St. Patrick's Day thread, but I was so busy yesterday that I didn't get a chance. So, does anyone know?

Well when I worked there years ago, we had them until we ran out of mix. That could be anytime between now and the end of the month usually. Check it out, they *should* still have them!

I think I read somewhere that NY state was no longer selling them. I got one last year though.

Oh, that makes sense that they'd sell it until they run out. Thanks! I will check it out today.

Yes, there was an article in the paper the other day; Shamrock Shakes are still available in some markets, but not in the greater New York area.

Oh, my gosh. I keep forgetting until I read this thread! Well, I ought to pick one up during my lunch hour at work today.

What flavor are these Shamrock shakes, by the way? Or, are they just vanilla with green food coloring?

I think they're mint

It sucks that New York stopped selling them! I would've gotten one today!

Ah, thanks, Kristel! Cool!!! Mint? Wow....I love the mint-flavoring!

Well, I didn't get to pick up a shake as there was no McDonald's near my sub on this part of town. I will check out one on my way back to the main campus. I can't wait! I could go for one right now.

D'oh! Would someone PLEASE remind me to look for a McDonald's? I keep forgetting. Ugh....

They're gonna be out soon. I just know it...ack...

Guess who finally got her act together and remembered to purchase a Shamrock shake? *raises hand* Me, me, me!

It only took me nine years to remember to actually purchase one since I first found out about them in 1998!

Man.....they are soooo tasty!!

They do taste minty with a bit of a jello-like flavor. Not sure how else to describe it, but I like it! Mmmmm!!!
