Lightbulb Would You Drop Your Facebook Friends For A Whopper?


Burger King's newest promotion is a Facebook app that asks you to decide whether you'd drop 10 of your Facebook friends for a free Whopper.. with all of Obama's Facebook friends, he should be eating high for awhile!

One wonders what the Valentine's promotion will be..

Speaking of Whoppers.. I went to Burger King for lunch,ordered two Whopper Jr.'s and they gave me full-size Whoppers by mistake.

I'm not big on fast food but prefer Burger King to McDonald's anyway.

i must say, burger king has been doing quite a lot of interesting marketing ideas (the smell, facebook app, whopper virgins, etc) and i'm quite impressed. unfortunately, the fine print at the bottom of the website says one free whopper per person.

THANKS A LOT BURGER KING!!

Everyone that used to be my friend dropped me for a stupid burger!

Well, not really... but if they did I probably wouldn't notice. I only ever log into that thing once a month or so anyway.
