Cool, I may just take up Applebees offer.

Oh crap, I just looked at their webpage and the local Applebees don't honor the free meal. I called one of them and they will give a 10% discount though. Nice try, but, Sorry, not good enough.

I'm scheduled to work the 17th during the Golden Corrals meal so thats out of the question. Dang, I guess just pbj's or bologna sandwiches then.
