WEEKEND GIVEAWAY: $25 Sonic Drive-In Gift Card

Marvo / May 11, 2018 / Announcement / 296 Comments

FULL DISCLOSURE: I received this $25 Sonic Drive-In gift card from the PR firm that works with Sonic. I got it for posting something about Sonic’s new Cookie Jar Shakes. I could keep this for myself and use it to review a bunch of the new items Sonic releases every year, but I don’t have a Sonic near me.

I’m supposed to have a Sonic near me this year.

No, I’m not impatient. Definitely not impatient. Mmm…millions of drink combinations.

Anyhoo, this gift card would be in better hands of someone who can actually use it. So I’m giving it away to one lucky reader.

RULES:

To enter The Impulsive Buy’s $25 Sonic Drive-In Gift Card Prize Drawing, leave a comment with THIS post. You can write whatever you want, but please don’t forget to fill out the email field because we’ll be emailing the randomly selected winner for his or her mailing address.

FAST FOOD NEWS: Burger King Sourdough Chicken Club

Marvo / May 11, 2018 / Fast Food News / 6 Comments

Update: We reviewed it! Click here to read our review.

It seems Burger King is alternating releases of new burgers and chicken sandwiches in 2018. The year began with the Rodeo Crispy Chicken Sandwich. Around two weeks later, the Double Quarter Pound King showed up. March brought us the Spicy Crispy Chicken Sandwich, followed by the Sourdough King later in the month. So now it’s time for a new chicken sandwich and it’s the Sourdough Chicken Club.

It features a crispy 100 percent white meat seasoned chicken filet that’s topped with thick-cut smoked bacon, American cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, and mayonnaise on a toasted sourdough bun.

If you’ve tried it, let us know what you think of it in the comments.
