McD’s Mocha

I’ll save you all the trouble of trying to cash in on the ‘free premium coffee on Mondays’ at McDonalds deal.

Its not really a free mocha.
I didn’t ask for a free lunch, let alone a free breakfast, just for them to make good on the ‘free coffee’ claim.

First, you have to buy something to get your ‘free’ coffee.
Second, you only get a sample size, not an actual useful cup of coffee.

Grimace CoffeeAnd as for the flavor? Grimmacingly, I have to admit its not that bad. A little sweet, but considering its aimed for mass-consumption, its not far off the mark.

//update: apparently prices and participation *do* vary. Other franchise locations do actually give free coffee.

    Strange…the MC Donald’s by Legends gives them free without having to purchase something and they give you the regular small size. Perhaps the MC Donald’s you frequent is not fully participating in the program?

    I’m ashamed to say that I never had to buy anything either. I will say that their iced coffee is quite drinkable, though barely coffee.
