Smashburger in McAllen, Texas is doing something really nice on October 27. Anybody who brings in five canned goods on that day will receive a free kids meal certificate. If you bring in ten items, you get two certificates, and so on.
You might be thinking, "well, five canned goods would cost about the same as a kids meal." Sure, except that you would have had to buy the canned goods to donate to the Food Bank RGV (you WERE going to donate anyway, right?); and you would also have had to buy your child a meal. Doing it your way, you would have donated and walked away empty-handed. Smashburger is rewarding your kindness. Let's not forget the most important aspect, teaching your young ones to be charitable.
Since you were going to donate to the Food Bank RGV anyway, Smashburger is stepping up to thank you for your generosity through their own generosity. Their goal is to collect 500 pounds of food for the Food Bank RGV. Of course, they won't be angry if they collect more than that. Bring it.
Be sure to mark you calendar and show up at 1020 Nolana in McAllen, Texas on October 27, 2011 with your food donation. Donations can include canned soup, pasta, cereal, oatmeal, beans, bags of rice, and other non-perishables.
While you are there don't forget to try the Windy City Smashburger and save your registration code to win a free trip to Chicago. The limited-time burger will cease being sold in McAllen on October 31. So, you can try the new burger, donate to the hungry, feed your hungry kid, and maybe even win a free trip to Chicago with $1000 to spend.
What more incentive can you want? Don't be greedy. Get out there on October 27th.
