0 Free Chick-fil-A Meal on Cow Appreciation Day July 9, 2010

The Chick-fil-A cows are by far, one of my favorite marketing campaigns of all time. Cute & comical in one.

On July 9, 2010, you can show your love for Chick-fil-A by participating in their Cow Appreciation Day. When you come to Chick-fil-A dressed as a cow from head to toe, you’ll receive a free combo meal. Only want to wear a cow headband or a cow-printed hat, shirt or purse? That’ll get you a free entree. Your calves (the kids, not your legs), can join in the fun too, & get a free kid's meal.

If the idea of a cow costume has you puzzed you can download a free costume starter kit. Be sure and save your costume for next year because this is the 6th year for this popular promotion, and I doubt it’s going anywhere anytime soon.
