It was a nice idea. Oprah
does a promotion for Kentucky Fried Chicken (KFC) involving their new grilled chicken offering. She mentions on her talk show that the chain is offering a free grilled chicken meal if you hand in a downloadable coupon available at
Oprah.com. Sadly, it
didn't turn out so well for the franchise.
Oprah's insane popularity caused about a bazillion people to download the free meal coupon. So many, in fact, that KFC wasn't ready to give out so much free grilled chicken and has now offered rainchecks for the existing coupons.

First Facebook, then Twitter, now chicken. It's one of Oprah's favorite things!
Oprah is giving away a coupon to KFC. It's valid until May 19 (though you only have until the end of today to print it out*). You get a free 2 Piece Meal, which includes their new grilled chicken, two sides and a biscuit. What, nothing to wash it down with? Thanks a lot!

Best Buy and TiVo are
running a promotion that lets you get an 80-hour Series2 TiVo for free after rebate, or a dual-tuner box for $50 after rebate. They'll even through in a free Wireless G adapter.
What's the catch? You've got to sign up for high speed internet service through Best Buy. And you've got to print
the coupon and take it into a store. This deal is not available through the TiVo or Best Buy websites.
No word on how long this promotion will last, but if you sign up before July 31st, you can get your first three months of TiVo service for free.
