almost certain they want you to actually pay for two before making you come back to redeem the third.

It’s basically the same thing. I could have paid for this one and taken the free one next time.

Why would they give you points just for redeeming existing points?

Because the offer says purchases.

Why should they care if I redeem existing points? I purchased with my points. Not like they expire.

It’s whatever, I’ll get another one before the promo ends. I just thought it was funny.

A purchase is giving money for something; paying in thank yous isn't a purchase. Your second sub was a redemption. I don't expect to collect air miles at the same time I'm redeeming (not purchasing!) $30 of gas with my air miles

In every retail industry, including restaurants, "purchases" mean "bought with money," and do not include the redemption of rewards points.

Because... they want your money?

The junior Bonus Jack meal is not bad. It has a little bit of a lot of different things for 5 bucks. Junior Bonus Jack, small curly fries, 1 taco, and a small drink.

Excellent Canada McDs experience. Poutine was surprisingly solid, curds squeaking away, and for only a 70 cent upgrade? Practically stealing. And what the heck, why don't we have cups of big Mac sauce? Didn't really work with the poutine outside of a few fries that hid from the gravy but definitely gave the sandwich a few dunks. Price was high but pretty sure 15.89 cad is equivalent to ~3.50 usd. Bonus pic bc Canada.

That McBurger actually looks really good.

The poutine .... yeah not so much. But looks aren't everything.

Instead of driving three miles to In N Out today I swung by Wienerschnitzel.

My taste buds and my colon regret the decision

Sorry for your loss.

For sure, though real brag is being a local... permanent access to Big Mac sauce cups.

Definitely benefitted from having super mid poutine experiences during my Canadian adventures this winter and last. My recent plate, the gravy was congealing 3 minutes after hitting the table and was just a sad soggy mess very shortly after...and it cost more than I paid for that Mcds meal!

My air bnb is 5 minutes from the Mcds, then 5 more to get in, spice up the coke + wash hands and the fries still had solid structural integrity. And can't forget...70 cent upgrade.

I was at Rick's one time, I think it was pre-covid times, and a couple in their 50s asked for mac sauce in a small container/cup.

I think they got it, not 100% sure.

I feel your pain. Usually my first 2 days of a Vegas trip includes hitting those two.

Fernie? See Alex Lifeson?

Nice moose picture. Does the McD's poutine hold up compared to non-FF poutine?

Went to this place called Teriyaki Express for lunch the other day. Kind of meh, the steak was pretty tough and chewy. Brother said the chicken was good.

Guess I'd rate it as, ok to try and see what you think, but don't make a point of it.
