That's what I had for lunch---all for free. You must have noticed my fondness for free stuff.
An hour before lunch we went to this newly opened restaurant owned by a friend and guess what? She ended giving us free lunch! Wasn't that great? The food was so good that I decided to go back in the evening for dinner. This time, of course, I paid for my order and now I could feel my waistline growing.
Did you have free food lately? Well, it does happen once in a while.

Oh wow, awesome, me luvs free schtuff!!!
That happened to me once, a new pizza joint was opening, and they said samples on their sign board outside so me and me husband we decided to pop in, and here they were giving out free whole pizza slices for I think an afternoon as a promo! Lol, I kinda felt guilty in a way and bought bottled pop from those guys to support their business but we had a nice free slice of pizza each.

Ewwww grilled squid! That reminds me of an embarrassing occasion I had with a work colleague, basically she invited me for dinner at her place and was cooking, she didn't tell me what she was cooking it was a surprise, and I hate surprises, but I didn't want to be ungrateful, anyway whatever it was she was cooking smelt good and I was starving, she put the dish in front of me and I took a mouthful and it tasted yuk, it was rubbery, then I foolishly asked her what it was, when she told me it was squid I wanted to throw up, I made my excuses and went to the toilet, I couldn't touch it afterwards, needless to say I never got another invite for dinner -thankfully!

That sounds great! I am also very fond of free food. There are a lot of events at my university that offer free food. Last month when everyone was studying for their final exams, our school offered to provide pizza and soft drinks as a reward for our studying. There were so many people who showed up for the free dinner.

Hi
Cutie18f I had a granduncle who had a food business, his food was delicious! As I grew with him and my grandauntie, I always had a delicious taco for breakfast, specialy on weekends, when he had more job.
Last month my two sons had free meals at the Sirlon Stockade because it was their birthday, they aren´t twins but they were born the same date with a difference of two years. So both of them got their free meal, and the waitresses sang them the happy birthday song. The Sirlon Stockade is their favorite restaurant.
Well your friend did a good and effective promotional marketing. Isn´t it?
Blessings
Cutie... dainy

Free food? Ha ha ha ha
Wish I could have a free food e. I never experienced having a free food. Someday and somehow, who knows, I would be lucky enough to have free food.
