Who got their free Grand slam?

I passed on the deal, simply because I don't have the time on a weekday to go eat a sit down restaurant.

Any one get it?

The line was out the door, the parking lot was jammed, so I had to settle for Wendy's in the same shopping center which was also packed. This has to be the busiest Tuesday in history for the food industry.

Edit. I was prepared for it to be extremely busy, but the entire shopping center was in gridlock. It took me an hour to get Wendy's!

What's a grand slam at Denny's? Is that the one with everything on it? What's the deal?

That is funny! All that for a free $5.99 meal. If I was the waitstaff there I would be pissed, I hope Denny's is tiping them out for every Grand Slam they sell because you know half the cheap bastards going in there are not!

That is such an elitist attitude. Sure, it's not IHOP but it's no shanty town food stand.

I actually really enjoy Denny's, and go there for their French Slams.
I went today and got the free one(grand not french), for which I waited for 1 hour and 10 minutes to get a table with my Mom, sister and her 2 kids. Waited only about 15 minutes for food, which was great considering the place was SLAMMED (pun intended) and left after 2 hours, leaving a full tip mind you. It was a GRAND time.
the Dennys I went to had the manager outside with pads of paper taking names and telling people to come back in 30-40 minutes because the lobby area was too full.

PS Yes I also goto McDonalds every week day this month to get a free McCafe Mocha from those guys. Thanks Corporate America, Great Promotions!!!!!

Dude you waited around for 1 hour and 10 minutes to get a $4.99 meal because it was free?

Re: Who got their free Grand slam?

I feel pretty out of touch for having NO CLUE what this is all about. Why is Denny's giving away a Grand Slam meal?

EDIT: Nevermind, a quick search and I see that it is just a promo. Probably smart, considering coffee, juice, and extra sides, etc aren't included. Plus it builds interest. However I wouldn't be caught dead in a Denny's today. Probably some pretty grimy folks taking advantage of the free handout.

Don't mean to get defensive, BUT
- I waited, because my Mom, my sister and her 2 kids(who love Denny's and were excited about going) were all together, and I relaxed and enjoyed the time with them. Sorry that I don't really share a "East Coast" mentality that says you must be in and out, and can't enjoy the time. The free meal was as good a reason, as when I go out to Texas Roadhouse and wait for a good while for a meal that is not free. From the tone on this thread you would think people had committed heresy to go and take advantage of a good offer, and good food.

No worries man! It is your time and your stomach. I worked in the hospitality industry for ten years and we were always taught you are not selling them a meal or room you are selling them the experience. It sounds like you had a good experience with your family at a good price in a tough economy. That my friend is a win!
