"Denny's is hoping the second time is the charm as it attempts to re-create the success of last year's Grand Slam breakfast giveaway promotion that it advertised during the Super Bowl. The casual-dining chain will run an ad during Super Bowl XLIV between the Indianapolis Colts and the New Orleans Saints, announcing that customers can come to participating restaurants on Feb. 9, from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. for free Grand Slam breakfasts, Nation's Restaurant News reported."
Not sure that I want to do this, but maybe some of you are Denny's fans.
Last yr, was in and out in 2 minutes, as just got a raincheck. wasn't gonna wait in line for 40min just to sit down. Cam back at my leisure. Their new burgers are great.
george2001 said: I actually like Denny's, but I can't imagine what the crowds will be like. Thanks OP. Lines were insane last year when they did this. Dennys got tons of publicity from it, as every TV news program & newspaper ran stories about the massive lines. And the waitresses mostly got stiffed on tips, and sometimes also on the check for whatever beverage the freeloaders ordered ("Uhhmmm, I thought it was free, yo?").
Best plan is to get a raincheck, as mentioned above.
Don't bother going unless you're on your day off or unemployed, lines are insane and there were cops for crowd control. We didn't bother going last time when we saw it was wrapped around the building...
Really? Denny's? They have ketchup and mustard stains on every thing. Including the once used to be pretty light hanging over the table. The flys are waiting to attack the syrup everywhere. People really eat there?

They give out rainchecks so if its a long wait ask for one! Thats what we did last year and came back about a month later and had free breakfast!
Last year, I took my wife and son. She and he shared one and I got a to go box for the third. A couple guys at work tore threw it It took less than 30 mins wait for a free meal for my family and enough takeout for two guys at work. If Denny's had better help at my local locaiton, I would eat there more. The food is decent and reasonably priced, but it's not always prepared well and the service sucks 90% of the time. Giving the food away once a year isn't going to make me (or most anyone for that matter) a loyal customer.
Now if only a few hundred other places would do this, eating out would be easily affordable

Your 8 year-old wants to wake up at 4 for a free Denny's breakfast? Send that kid to fatwallet finance!
Thanks for the reminder! Just got back from getting our Grand Slams in Mt. Laurel, NJ. Only had a 10-15 min wait in line. After my 2 boys got their chocolate milk, our bill was $2.19. YAY!
