Comments

Quite a few smart !!!!!! on here saying she should have asked in advance for the glasses, but one presumes the promotional flyers were still up at the Mcdonalds, so therefore one woudl assume the offer is still on.
One would assume, whether an offer is still on or not, that the supply of glasses is finite.Bought, not Brought0 -

I would have cancelled the order too, but then I wouldn't buy the rubbish they sell unless I was really hungry and no where else to gothat's what I was thinking...but they're not free are they, you had to pay extra for a large meal where as after your were happy with just a regular.
Now me i like McD but 6 meals just for you seems a bit muchYeah, what you actually need to do is order the food, pay for it, eat it, then jump in a time machine to before the payment and refuse to pay because the glasses aren't there.
OR, you could go and BUY a glass.

They're about £4 each aren't they?
The amount of glasses I could buy from a Supermarket for £24!
In other words if you need glasses.......................0 -
if promotion still going on, and they have posters etc on display, surely thats misleading, if not illegal?
hardly worth going to court over, but i would let their head office know, along wth local trading standards..?Long time away from MSE, been dealing real life stuff..

Nope because I bet it will have a disclamier. Trading Standards will be well !!!!ed off if they have to look at a sign only to find it has a disclaimer on it.0 -
First time I have posted and cannot believe how many people are so RUDE!
To clarify, I had been to a family wedding in Wales, 6 people travelling in 2 cars. Had a very light lunch and by the time I reached home territory we were all very hungry. I visit McDonalds approx once a year and Sunday was very convenient. 1 carload went to shop for milk whilst I went to McDonalds so it was not that simple to cancel order as I would have needed to phone others to discuss alternatives etc.
for gods sake, I just thought others might find info useful.
My kids were really keen on the glasses but we won't be getting them as I am not prepared to give McDonalds any more of my money.0 -

You say you only go once a year anyway.0 -
i meant to say they are bating people with idea of getting a free gift if they buy large(r) meal..
but if therre is none left, ALL promo material should be removed, or maybe even a sign sayng 'no glasses left' put up?
it would take seconds to do.. and may even earn them an extra star..Long time away from MSE, been dealing real life stuff..
