After spending a month and a bit in quarantine, we all deserve a nice little treat this week. Wendy's knows that we've been struggling to remain sane and one of the primary things contributing to our collective madness is the fact that we can't eat out anymore. They've decided to numb the pain by offering a promotion that nobody can refuse.
The restaurant chain announced that they will be helping every single one of us, giving away free chicken nuggets on Friday with absolutely no strings attached.
"We wish we could give you a hug, but instead…how about a nug?" asked the chain on Twitter. "This Friday, we’ll be giving out free 4pc spicy and crispy nugs at every Wendy’s drive-thru. No purchase necessary, not a single string attached."
By limiting this offer to the drive-thru, Wendy's is still promoting social distancing and, by giving away free food, they're inviting customers to their spot to spend their hard-earned stimulus dollars with them. It's a win-win. We get free nugs, they get extra cash.
Will you be taking advantage of the offer at the end of the week? Why not treat yourself to a delicious snack or surprise your quarantine buddies with some goodies?

Kanye West & Kim Kardashian Reveal Go-To McDonald’s Order In Super Bowl Ad
Kanye and Kim are all about their chicken nuggets.
The Super Bowl is coming on Sunday. The thing about the Super Bowl is that everyone tunes into it but there’s a good chance there’s a large chunk of folks who are just tuning in for the commercials. Companies blow millions of dollars to get their advertisement placed during one of the biggest nights on television.

Now, if you know Kanye, then you know he’s a big fan of McDonald’s. In Frank Ocean‘s Boys Don’t Cry magazine, Kanye penned a poem in tribute to the fast good chain called “McDonald’s Man.” McDonald’s recently revealed their ad for the Super Bowl and they got a few major name celebrities to help them out without actually appearing in the commercial.
Kanye West and Kim Kardashian also contributed by revealing their go-to orders at McDonald’s. For Kanye, he’s a simple guy who enjoys his nuggets. His go-to order consists of a six-piece, three packets of BBQ sauce, a chocolate McFlurry, and a small fries. Kim’s order is a bit more left-field than Kanye. Although she does have the six-piece nuggets, small fry, and chocolate McFlurry, she also adds an apple pie and a cheeseburger. Oh, and for dipping sauce, she opts for honey which she says is “the only way to eat” chicken nuggets.
Other celebrity orders include Whoopi Goldberg and Millie Bobby Brown.
Chick-Fil-A Giving Out Free Chicken Nuggets All Month
It's your chance to get some free nuggs.
The battle between Chick-Fil-A and Popeyes was one for the ages last year, with everybody rushing to test out the new chicken sandwich at the latter so they could finally determine a winner in the war. Everybody has their favorite but even if you deemed Popeyes the winner, you'll have trouble turning down this offer.
All fried chicken fans know that the classic chicken nuggets at Chick-Fil-A are pretty heavenly and, this month, the chain is allowing us to grab an order for the reasonable price of $0. If you don't have the official Chick-Fil-A app on your phone, you might want to get started on downloading that because you'll need it to redeem this offer. As reported by USA Today, anybody who creates a new account (or logs onto an existing account) on the app is in line to get a free eight-count chicken nugget order. If you're looking for a healthier option, you can substitute the nuggs for the brand new Kale Crunch Side.
With the app, you earn points every time you dine at Chick-Fil-A, allowing you to redeem more free food offers in the future. If you download it and create an account anytime between now and the end of January, you're due for a nice little treat. Who's giving this a try?
