Oprah is offering a coupon for a free 2 piece grilled chicken/2 sides dinner from KFC through her website until 9:59 p.m. Central on 5/6/2009. (It’s legit.)
Sincerely,
Sampiro (doing his part to feed the hungry)
I downloaded it so you know somebody benefited from your post.
Out of curiosity, are the numbers on yours (under the “no photocopied[etc.]”)
I was wondering if the coupon is just a photo or if there’s some kind of sequential program on it. (The above number is not at all similar to my IP address.)
Yep it’s the same number I have. I did two separate downloads to see if any part of the coupon changed and it didn’t so they have no way to know how many you printed. It’s stupid to say your limited to four downloads when they are all duplicates.
The site had problems so I plan to check tomorrow.
Maybe they have a tracking program. 
I’ve downloaded a set. We plan to do some for my unemployed son and his family. Every little bit helps. Thanks for the info.
7pm PDT here and I see the same numbers.
Anyone find it odd the offer is not good on Mother’s Day? Is there really a run on KFCs on Mother’s Day?
Yes. I don’t think any food place escapes the hoards on that day.
The terms do mention this:
“Valid only if downloaded from UnthinKFC.com”
It seems you need to install coupon software so a valid coupon will print, are the direct PDF ones from the page in the OP a different deal or are they not valid?
If that’s the case then I thank all the gods I don’t work at KFC because there are going to be an army of very pissed off people who printed the PDF.
Sweet! Thanks Sampiro! That will certainly help the budget this week.
Whoa. I just decided to try the coupon download at unthinkkfc.com. It is indeed a different coupon. The bar code is legit instead of 01234567890 and the two coupons have different bar code numbers.
Oprah’s site seems to have a link that is going to piss off a bunch of people.
Maybe a moderator could edit the original link.
I took one for the team.
So I did try the coupon software, only to tell me that the coupons could not be printed because the Brother Laser printer have has this item checked in the advanced features:
Keep printed documents.
No problem I thought, I should uncheck it and try again.
Unfortunately the printer or Windows refused to uncheck it. Every time I tried to print the website told me that it could not print for the same reason. I checked the printer advanced settings and the damn “Keep printed documents” remained checked even after doing it several times.
I switched to my color printer that did not have a “Keep printed documents” item checked, but sure enough.
The site told me I had already printed too many coupons.
:smack::mad:
My apologies for the link in the OP.
This is going to go very very very very badly for KFC, I fear.
I don’t have anything to add about this particular Oprah coupon, but I did get a coupon from my mom’s husband for a free piece of KFC grilled chicken. So I went there today to use it. I got a two piece original recipe meal and gave them my coupon. They gave me my delicious original recipe leg and thigh and potatoes and gravy and cole slaw and biscuit. I asked where my grilled chicken was and then I noticed it under the biscuit. A tiny, dry, shrivelled up little wing. That was my free piece of chicken? That’s how they want to entice me into telling my friends about their wonderful new product? It’s not like I just went in and asked for my free piece of chicken and that was it. I wasn’t being greedy and trying to get a free meal. I ordered a dinner too. Anyway…No thanks. It tasted like it was grilled on a george forman with a lot of salt and a couple of cajun spices.
This is not something you messed up. The site says click to print. The site link is bad. Don’t sweat about it. We figured out how to get free food now, and nobody would have if you hadn’t posted.
Free is free so even if it’s not great we win. They just lose if it’s so small we don’t buy it in the future. We have free sides if nothing else. We will hope you just got a bad meal.
Oh, don’t apologize. It is rare for people to read the whole text of the warranties and limitations, the fault here is with the guy who did set the web page at Oprah.
Thanks, Sampiro. This buys four dinners on the way home on treatment days in the next couple of weeks.
