I’ve never been much of a fan of “Happy Meal” toys and the similar doodads from various fast food joints. But Subway certainly hooked me in with their latest promotion – Disney’s The Wizards Of Waverly Place.  Now, I was under the impression that DDisney and McDonalds had an exclusive deal when it came to these toys, but it was nice to be proven wrong.

Not only is Zaira a fan of The Wizards, but I am as well.  In fact, it’s our current “Saturday Morning Cartoon”.  No, it’s not a cartoon, but we’d worked through all of the classic toons that I had available and moved on to this live action comedy.  Adding just a touch of irony to this promotional choice is the fact that, in the show the Russo family runs the Waverly Sub Station which is one the show’s main sets.

Tomorrow is “Customer Appreciation Day” at the local Taco Bell on Monterey Road. I’m not sure if this is a chain-wide thing because there’s is no mention of it on the corporate website. But they’ve got signs up at the shop, so I know it’s coming. Unfortunately, I didn’t have my camera when I stopped by and saw the sign, so you just get this yummy Cinnamon Twist picture instead.

Why Cinnamon Twists?  Well, it’s not because they’re my favorite Taco Bell food.   In fact, I’ve never tried them.  Rather, it’s in honor of the fact that I’ll be trying them tomorrow.  Why?  Because they’ll be free!!
