Claim your free Whopper day!

Who doesn't love freebies? Anyone? Unless you were born with a silver spoon in your mouth, I guess freebies and tokens don't attract you at all. Or it still depends because what if it's a free house and lot or a latest edition of sports car, right?


Well, I didn't receive any of the above mentioned but whenever simple tokens or gift certificates are handed to me, my excitement is always that mile high. During my early 20's, believe me or not, I used to be ultimately shy to claim my coupons. My mentality was, I don't want that person who does the validation to make me feel inferior, like I can't afford to pay for it and just rely on freebies. Have you felt that way too?


Anyhoo, a few months ago, I claimed my BPI card and enclosed is a "claim your free Whopper at any Burger King branch". It wasn't a big deal to me at first as my mentality ate me up again but last week, just when the coupon is about to expire in 2 days, I finally gave it a try.


I went to the new Burger King in SM Megamall A and was quite surprised how this fast-food chain looked tidy and really attractive.  I have a 'thing' with wooden chairs plus they placed couches on the side like you're in a milk tea or coffee shop.


It's been a while since my last 'man versus Whopper' and my taste buds were delighted again with this meaty flame-grilled burger. The juicy and fresh beef patty tasted and smelled really good as always. The crisp lettuce and tangy pickles added more flavor to my burger.


Thank you so much BPI for this once in a lifetime treat! Or should I say, there's more to come?


Of course, it won't be a complete meal without my favorite strawberry sundae! My calorie counter was temporary shut down that moment. :-)
