@wmnetid said in Burger King app Whopper Chef game, daily play through 9/22, win up to 750 crowns:

It’s back in the app and website now

Yep, just a temporary glitch apparently.

@kimi said in DO YOU KNOW THE MUFFIN MAN? $1 for any muffin at DUNKIN with activated APP OFFER, no other purchase req'd ends 9/16:

@yoregano I was going to use my mobile app to order the muffin today (to get the bonus pts), but muffins aren’t on my app menu. Muffins are normally on my app menu so I think they intentionally removed it. (Since I was going to DD anyway, I purchased the muffin in-store. I ordered something else to get the bonus pts.)

Muffins are in the Donuts, Bagels & Bakery section of the app.

Yeah, what Agent Bauer said. Dammit, Chloe!

With Perks Week starting, I don’t see the Whopper game today in the app.

it’s there, played it this AM. close your app and re open it, scroll down.

Hmm, something fishy going on. And I see wmnetid posted below that they don’t see it either. I cleared my storage and relaunched the app, and it still is not showing. So it’s either become a regional thing, or maybe Mr C got in early before they ended it, or who knows.

With Perks Week starting, I don’t see the Whopper game today in the app.

The taco is $1.39 for me in suburban Chicago. It’s pretty good, too (for it’s cheap filler nature).

The stupid game is always slow to load on my phone, but I almost gave up today. It finally did but it must have took at least three minutes.

DD offers have overall been lacking in value this year IMO, but this one is pretty good. I’ll wait to get my muffin until next Monday. In my area, there continues to be an ongoing deal for 100 bonus points for ordering ahead on Mondays.

Another situation to look out for potential BF/holiday offers.

I’m at the point where I need a phone with at least 128 GB of storage. Most TF deals seem to be for 64 GB phones.

I wonder if they will still have a holiday offer on Hulu like they’ve done the last several years and if so, whether or not that will be at the same or higher price.

@mistercheap said in Burger King Whopper Wednesday now $3.99 (was $3):

@yoregano gotta keep up my friend!

Yeah, I guess I don’t always venture into other sub-groups beyond HD. Agreed, it’s getting harder to find deals at BK, though they still tend to be better overall than most other fast food joints. At least it’s still fairly easy to accumulate crowns.

Thanks, don’t have it, but a good reminder to check your messages.

On a semi-related note, I noticed that Whopper Wednesday for me had increased from $3.00 to $3.99 today.

Heh, cute action in the spin-the-wheel to get your points. Mine spun to 250, then rotated back the other way to land on 25.

FYI, better offers do show up from time to time at other cash back sites. I signed up several months ago through Revenue Universe, an “offer wall” partner via Swagbucks. Every now and then, some of the wall partners offer double or triple normal value for sign ups and click-throughs and such. At the time, the offer was tripled, and in this case it was 2700 SB for sign-up and the net was a $15 MM.

@sonofzeus said in Using Low Value (under $5) Prepaid Rebate Cards:

My utility bills can be paid with small denomination Visa/Mastercard GC (no fee).

Yep, this is my consistent method for using up low-balance cards. I pay most of my utilities with prepaid cards in general, actually. My only exception is my water bill, because my municipality charges fees for card payments.

Lots of offers available, but no outright freebies for me. Closest example is a $1 Jr. Bacon with additional purchase.

@my4mainecoons said in Walmart: Triple Stack exp 7/15/24:

I don’t have SB. Do purchases have to be made online?

If you don’t use Swagbucks, MyPoints and the like… well, you should. Because deals like this example are reason why.

@sonofzeus said in Walmart: Triple Stack exp 7/15/24:

It’s on my front page under shopping. I get this offer every month on SB and MP.

If you are getting a monthly $5 off $10 offer from both SB and MP, you are leading a charmed life (in the realm of cash back sites). I have been using both SB and MP for years, and I certainly don’t get offers like this with any kind of regularity. Super targeted deals for sure. That said, 15% cash back at Walmart is very unusually high, jump on it if interested, it won’t likely stay at that rate for long.

Today’s deal is free any size onion rings with $1+ purchase.
Birthday deal now through the end of the month is a Whopper can be redeemed for 550 Crowns instead of the usual 750.
I know what I’m having for lunch.

Per an email I got, there may be more offers to come. The email didn’t specify an end date, but worth checking one’s account/app daily to see if/what new offers appear.
Presenting our Sizzlin’ Summer Savings. Starting today, get a different FREE item every day with purchase via in-app offer. Today’s tasty item — our classic Dave’s Single®. Enjoy everything from breakfast faves, nuggs, fries, and more. Be sure to check your app on the daily to see what’s FREE.

I didn’t see a banner or need to activate, mine just shows in my regular offers tab. But thanks for the tip, I wouldn’t have likely seen this otherwise.

@sonofzeus said in NEW ACCOUNTS: Capital One Shopping Sign Up, Install Extension, Make $15+ purchase within 90 days, get $45 bonus (works!):

Is this extension compatible with other shopping extensions already installed in Chrome?

More like independent of other extensions. Whichever extension you click/pull down is the one that should track. Also, you can turn extensions on/off as desired.

Starts today!

New game started today: “Balloon Burst”. Throw darts to earn points, get enough points to complete a level, and win all seven levels to earn 400 Crowns. The game can be won after a few minutes of persistent playing and the the Crowns credit immediately after the last level. Come back and play daily for a chance to win a $70 BK card.

@sonofzeus said in Google Pixel Tablet 128mb Free (just pay sales tax) after iPad Trade In Through 5-20-2024:

Trade-in value of 5 year old Ipad that does not hold a charge?

Like many other of these trade-in deals, there’s a calculator to determine the value. In your case, trade-in value will not be top-dollar.

@mistercheap said in Burger King - Challenge: Make one $5+ purchase, get 400 Crowns thru 5/19 (YMMV):

@yoregano

Offer varies, I have to make 3 purchases, not worth it. However, I did very well racking up crowns in the recent games, so I’ve banked some free food. Don’t forget, points expire now after 6 months, so keep tabs when they are expiring so you’re sure to use them up.

Yep, I remembered this from the last time I posted a similar deal a few months back. I’ll take this sort of deal, makes up for the “penalty” I have to pay for more expensive add-ons (lettuce, onion, etc.).
Good reminder about keeping track of expiration dates on Crowns. I’ll be taking advantage of the 175-point burger more than once this month.

I get these types cards all the time. Virtual is fine for me since I use them to pay utility bills and such online. You can get a physical card instead but… there a fee that gets deducted from the initial value, thus negating the bonus/savings for getting the card in the first place.

Did this on Whopper Wednesday by getting a $3 Whopper and a $2.xx side of halfsies (fries and onion rings). I should clarify, it’s a bonus 400 crowns on top of the regular order, so I got 450+ crowns in total.

Description says these may be available in-store (for less $). I’m gonna have to check first before/instead of ordering.

Check your app and activate if available. Challenges tend to vary per user in terms of requirements and rewards.

An alternative (as far as getting oil for a decent net price), Costco in-store has two-pack, 5-gallon jugs of various weights of Kirkland full synthetic oil for $9 off until 5/12. At my local store, most varieties were $30 final price.

My free fries offer now requires a $1+ purchase. Still not a bad deal, but have to add cheese, bacon, and/or tomato (all my add-ons are at least 50¢ each) or another item entirely. I’ll still do this combo at least once, I’ve got over 1,000 crowns expiring to use this month.

Got 25 Crowns yesterday, and the Whopper w/ $1 purchase again today.

So, after using this cable for several days, I’m not sure. It works, nothing problematic happening. I haven’t done any scientific measurements, but anecdotally, despite my phone saying “turbo power” while charging (plugged into a newer iMac Thunderbolt port), I’m not sure the charge rate is actually significantly faster than when using a standard cable and brick. I’ll have to do a observed comparison sometime to be sure.

As good as this deal is, one drawback for my wife’s sake is that it doesn’t work with gluten free crust. I have to get her the everyday 1-topping, $7.99 deal instead.

After days of turd prizes (mostly free ice cream or drinks with $1 purchase), I got the free Whopper w/ $1 purchase today.

Offer shows on main page.

This did disappear in my app on the third day. Update: but it returned today, and this time if I click on it, it says I’ve already did it and received the reward. 🤷😏

Well, I did order these and so far, I’m quite pleased. Construction is good, the cables are fairly thick and even come with velcro ties. My Motorola phone shows “TurboPower” while charging so the claims of fast charging seem be true.

@sonofzeus said in Free a/IBOTTA (many stores) $3.49 fixed Colombe Single Serve Coffee Drink 9-11oz can:

Jewel app shows $2. ea.
Hunted in vain this morning with a manager.
Hope others are successful with this MM.

Grrr. I was hoping for same. I’ve gotten these single cans before, relatively recently, but now no stores near me have them anymore, not Walmart, Target, or Walgreens either. WTF. Not the first time a great Ibotta offer has turned out to be vaporware.

No activation required. Just order with another item and the cold brew will be free. Remember to add cold foam if desired for no additional charge.

@yoregano said in Burger King APP Free 25 Crowns for "Crown that Cuisine" survey:

This seems to stay in the app after you do it and get the initial reward, but you don’t get credit for doing the ranking again after the first time.

Right, it’s not a game, it’s a survey. surveys are always 1x limit per account.

I figured it would disappear from one’s account after doing it. 🤷

Don’t think so, when they had the create your own whopper survey to get the whopper free w/$1, that was 1x per account, but you could still create more custom whoppers after but no perk.

That one was a little different. You only got the free whopper coupon once, but additional whopper creations gave you entries in the contest.

I’ll look for it tomorrow. Thanks. Update: I received the email, too. So hopefully this is a nationwide offer and not regional.

I guess for 5 bux, it’s not a high-risk proposition from a value standpoint, but I’m always wary of off-branded tech gear from Amazon. Fakespot gives a review rating of “F” for these…

This game is giving me better results overall than the last one. I’ve gotten 25 crown, 50 crowns twice, and today, 100 crowns.

Late to the party, deal as described appears dead. I only have a $1.48 coupon applicable.

New game started today in the BK app, emphasis on new “cloud” drinks. Play daily to win crowns and other prizes. I won a Med Frozen Cotton Candy Cloud (has foam on top) with a $1 purchase for my first prize.
