They had a sign on the door that they were honoring the coupons from 10am-12pm and from 3pm-5pm. I called them today after seeing the stuff about the rainchecks & was told they're still honoring the coupons during those specified hours. I went back today with my 3 kids at 4pm & used all 4 coupons with no problem & hardly any wait. We went to KFC in Murrieta, CA yesterday about 1pm.

You advertise a free meal on Oprah AND let people print FOUR of them, then everyone and their grandma is going to come out for their free meal. What could have been good PR is turning into bad, and that's ashame, because it was a generous offer.

It was not a hassle at all. Maybe we need to cut KFC a little slack, it seems like they are trying and can't help it if they don't have supply to meet demand, it's a free meal people!

We went to the York, PA KFC last night and there were corporate signs all over the doors and stores that they were no longer accepting the coupons due to overwhelming demand. We could have stood in line to fill out a form to get a coupon for a free meal and Pepsi mailed to us...but that line had over 50 people in it! We walked out. I don't know how you issue a coupon like this, on a show like Oprah, and then are surprised at "the overwhelming demand" and aren't prepared. We don't eat at KFC and, after this, probably won't ever again. Poor management! What a crock!
