Yes that's right, Hot Rods promotion is coming to an end on Monday 19/05/2014. And on the next day, KFC is doing the "12 Pieces for $12" promotion again which consist of 6 pieces of Crispy Strips and 6 pieces of Original Recipe Chicken). Possibly Nationwide? I'm not sure since my store is in NSW.
PS: I'm an employee in one of the store branch and heard this information from my store manager last night.
Me too..
Me too..
me too….
Me four….
me too
Me Toosday.
Me too…
Same here aye
me 9
you had the chance to say "me $9.95". Now you've taken that away from everyone.
me 18
I like sex, but sometimes i have to settle for fried chicken.
how about 12 pieces of chicken for $9.95.. sounds better..
How about 12 pieces for $10? I don't like carrying spare change.
Drop the 5c into the little donation box they have.
or just use a card to pay
yeah I think earlier this year here in NSW we were doing 9 pieces of chicken for 9.95 too. but now they're doing this to end the Hot Rods promo.
why not keep doing that? its popular mate.
I had no idea since i'm just a normal employee, for promotion wise, it is all set by the head office, we are here just to make it happen. I totally agree that 9 pieces for $9.95 is an absolute bargain. They might bring it back anytime soon. Last year, my store did the 9 pieces for $9.95 promotion for 3 months. So there is a chance that my store is going to do it again.
not a valid reason to neg the deal imho
Then you might as well cook it at home. It'll be cheaper
It's still a bargain and worth the up-vote. 6 Crispy Strips at KFC are normally about $10, so no matter your preference in regards to chicken type, this is still a bargain for $12. The amount of negging on OzB recently just because personanlly they disagree with the contents of a bargain is ridiculous.
Yes you are correct. I should not have negged for reasons stated.
(Which has been corrected)
From KFC menu:
1 x Piece of Chicken $ 3.00 $ 3.00
5 x Piece of Chicken $12.95 $12.95
6 x Crispy Strips $10.00
(Couldn't see that on menu) $10.00
Total $25.95 vs $12.00 Plus 2 dips
Crispy strips - delicious!
eugh Crispy Strips…(I often find the meat is quite dry as well) tastes so plain compared to the 'original recipe'.
Hmm, does the chicken fall into any of the categories below?:
*organic
*free-range
*barn-free
*cage-free
Were they pumped with hormones, antibiotics and GM chicken feed?
Who cares? There are free range organic chickenfeed chicken terribly cooked and tastes shit make me rather eat GM chickenfeed myself instead.
No chicken we eat in Australia has added hormones.
But people keep stating it to force some kind of issue.
^ THIS. Also, you should look into what farms can claim as free range because Australian regulations are so lax around it. I believe many of "free-range" chicken on the market have only been "outside" for few hours in their life.
In addition, despite the behavioural advantage of free range broilers/egglayers, some veterinarians argue that free range system actually results in worse animal welfare due to increased likelyhood of disease manifestation and potential parasite burden etc.
So eat our (Aussie) free range or not eat our free range? 0.o
Tues lunch sorted. Rep know when does the offer end?
I think it will be until the end of June
Why are Ozbargainers upvoting this do you like getting worse and worse deals over time?? You pay two dollars more and get 4 pieces less chicken and instead get 6 small flavourless strips. What a mother-truckn rip. That's right you pay more and receive less!!
Thanks for that! Now I can have a deal that expired 2 months ago next time I go KFC!
My bad 3 pieces less **
nobody on ozb likes deals that are lesser than previous deals but type this into google: "define inflation" = your mind blown!
inflation is around 2% per annum, you sound like a big company trying to justify a price hike.
Crispy strips are awesome. Less bone and grey-matter, or at least processed into an edible form.
Damn, the hot rods are pretty good.
Is this nationwide?
Not sure, it is definitely NSW-wide. The only way to find out is to walk in to your local store :)
Live fat, die young.
Just live stressed and you can still die skinny.
The crispy strips at Red Rooster are wayyyy better IMO. The ones I had from KFC were tasteless :(
I'm so glad that my favourite KFC menu item is the wicked wings. $10 for 10 all the time. Woot!
mmm wings.
would be good if the crispy strips weren't so small :(
But they're boneless :)
With fine weather this is perfect for a peck-nic.
Can you get hot and spicy with this at any store?
i heard Campsie always has it?
My store sells hot&spicy too, of course you can
Which store are you at, I love hot and spicy!
Broadway
Good ol' Kentucky Duck, a once a week treat! Nom nom nom :p
What is the hot rides promotion? Guess I have missed it
Dammit my diet hates this :( :(
i would have preferred 12 chrispy strips for $12 ;-(
it's great, thanks OP
So i rock up to kfc maroubra and they say they arent doing the 12 for 12 because they dont have enough crispy strips for the full price bucket deals. What a travesty. That and they didnt have gravy #firstworldproblems
I told the freckled 15 yr old counter boy that id see him in court. Do u guys reckon i got a case? Neone else who missed out wanna start a class action?
I was told no more. Last Tuesday was the last time.
I like the nine pieces for 9.95 better.
