McDonald’s, The Golden Arches, Mickey D’s, McD’s, and The Fast Food Chain That Tops The Fast Food Game.

Next year, McDonald’s is bringing back $1 menu items so the $10 gift card we’re giving away is enough to pay for a McDonald’s Dollar Menu feast. The $1 menu items include the sausage burrito, McChicken, Cheeseburger, and any size soft drink.

Oh geez, this sounds like an ad for the new Dollar Menu, coming January 4 at participating locations.

I don’t think we mentioned Subway at all on the blog this year. Did it come out with new products?

Well, with this post we finally stuck in a Subway mention this year with four days to spare. Yay! To celebrate, let’s give away a Subway gift card.

There’s a story behind how I got this $20 Sonic Drive-In gift card.

We recently covered Sonic’s Lil’ Breakfast Burritos and a few days after that I received an email from a PR firm asking if I could cover the new breakfast items that’s available all day. The email also said if we covered it, we’d get a gift card. The opportunity to receive a gift card reminded me that I had to do this year’s Season of Giving, which slipped my mind.

I replied by saying we already covered it and asked if I could still get the gift card and give it away with a prize drawing. The PR person said it’s okay. So thanks, Sonic, for the the gift card and reminding me about TIB’s annual Season of Giving.

It’s probably cold where you are, and it’ll be that way for the next few months. So this $10 Starbucks gift card we’re giving away today might help one of you keep warm this winter by using it to purchase hot Starbucks beverages or by setting it on fire.

This year, Starbucks made more noise with their frozen Frappuccino beverages than with their hot beverages. The coffee chain released three bright, social media-friendly Frappuccino drinks — Unicorn, Zombie, and Christmas Tree. With all the attention those three got, I imagine we’ll be seeing more colorful Frappuccinos in 2018.

Of course, there has to be a Walmart gift card included in The Impulsive Buy’s Season of Giving.

Of the 3,000 plus Spotted on Shelves photos we posted this year, almost one-third of them were taken at a Walmart. And, about one-fourth of that one-third were photos of Walmart store brand products. The folks at Walmart’s test kitchens have been busy. May there be more Tropickles-like products in 2018!
