Marcster Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 the commerical was hysterical!You can watch the commercial on their web site: www.dennys.com Unfortunately, my local Denny's is now a Japanese restaurant. So now my nearest Denny's is 28 miles away. I don't think it's worth an hour drive (round trip) to get a free breakfast in a (crowded) Denny's.

arelf27 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 We have one in 5 min. distance from house but I'm wondering what the crowds will be like. I HATE eating in a crowded restaurants, so I'm pretty sure I'm not going to go.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CindyIUP Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 My local Denny's also closed, their website says the closest one to me is now over 20 miles, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdflores Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Wonder if they'll do it "To Go"? I'd Have to go a bit out of my way, but I probably won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmked Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Wonder if they'll do it "To Go"? I'd Have to go a bit out of my way, but I probably won't.No they won't, it says dine in only. But I have heard that if they are too busy and you don't want to wait they have 500 vouchers for free grand slams you can use another time.

Kara1204 Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Denny's give me gas. The WORST, longest lasting, foulest smelling.......GAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Closest is 70 miles. My family thanks you, Denny's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elena_398 Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 My daughter has an appointment at 9:30am so afterwards we are going to go to Denny's for our free Grand Slam... Then she will go back to school. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nineofus Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 DD1, DD2 and I were at Denny's at 6AM. Not too crowded. Served quickly. Decent food. (I'm not much of a breakfast eater, so DD2 took most of mine for her lunch.) The best part was spending time with the girls. They're now grown and out of the house so mornings like this are rare. Definitely worth it for me. Of course, Denny's is only about 3 mins. from my house. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stowasser Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I guess its been noting on other sites that you can request a raincheck if they still have them, if the lines are too long etc..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pinkroses4mommy Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I took my kids this morning at about 11:00. The line was out the door, but it was only about 20 minutes until we were seated. It was very good, and with 4 kid and myself, it was well worth the wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arelf27 Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 I drove by it around 12:00 and saw the line out the door and lots of cars still pulling into the driveway.. It was starting to snow too so really wasn't in the mood to have to wait outside with ds1. Figured we'd be only saving 12 bucks (since they serve this same deal weekdays for $4 and there would be 3 of us with hubby) so really wasn't worth fighting the mob. Opted for Chinese buffet instead.. At least they motivated me to take a shower, put on make-up and get out of the house this morning, so it was all good :). (I've been loosing my motivation lately, now that Target Toys sale is over and there's no more free make-up at the mall and no more Gymboree $4.99 ($1.99) crazy deals! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leslie007 Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 3 of us waited about 45min from the door to sitting down. The tables were full but it wasn't an uncomfortable atmosphere at all. Def. worth free breakfast and I even won a purple Valentines Frog from the claw machine while waiting in line 3x a charms($1.50). Gave it to my sis-in-law :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovetoshopCA Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 LOL! Just happened to drive by the local one 3 times today driving to and from the kids school, and the line never abated. It was still going strong at 2pm. Afraid you'd have to pay me to do it, but to each his own.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curious though.. were the drinks included or did one have to pay for those?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leslie007 Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 drinks were seperate,so I got something other than water which is what most ppl got(I usually do too) why not splurge, their Pineapple Dream Sprite is they weren't even giving menus @ our Denny's!

arelf27 Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 (edited) That's what I thought about the drinks!! That kinda beats the purpose for me!! I mean I realize it's just a dollar or so, but the whole breakfast was only $4 to begin with plus count gas (cause all these people wouldn't normally drive that way on that day) I think they should have went all out and offered free soda, juice and coffee. This way they still made money they wouldn't have otherwise... I was seriously considering bringing my own iced-tea, juice and soda (just for the principal sake!!) but then decided against going at all..

BFQueenofNY Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 i got on line at 9am with a party of 11 people. We were seated at 9:23 and left at 10:01. I paid 2.99 total after tax before tip for 2 meals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyLaRue Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Mine was OK. The staff was wonderful and took names upon arrival and had a list so no waiting in line. Only minor drawback was when a name was called some people would look around and then pretend to be that person! I would stop those people and say NO! they just got here and their name is not the same as on the list. Lets just say I made no new friends that day. Also I was appalled at the number of kids there! Why would you pull your kid out of school just for a free breakfast? I got there with my friend around 10:30am and there was about 25 kids (8 to 14 years old) in line with parents!!! But overall I managed to go to the bank and post office and return with 15 minutes left before they called my name to get my free breakfast.

shumai Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 props to you for doing that... i probably wouldn't have the guts to do it.. but i'm really really want to.. maybe on a really bad day i would.. good job though!

Marcster Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 They probably homeschool...Or they were on vacation, Johnny is somewhere on the Left Coast after all... No doubt that some parents pulled their kids out of school though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
