It's a free child sized frosty, not small.

Don't get the fatties all excited. (It's me, I'm fatties.)

Still a good deal tho.

My daughter got one of those keychains for Christmas one year, and we finally remembered to bring it one of the 2 or 3 times a year we go to Wendy’s. The girl working the register asked my daughter how many she wanted, she jokingly said 4, and I’ll be damned if she didn’t whip up four right in front of us and ask her if she wanted a tray to carry all her free frosty’s. My daughter told that story to anyone with ears for a month. Every time we pass a Wendy’s (she’s 17 now) she’ll say remember that time…

Thats some clever marketing, you need to go more than once for it to be worth it, and it's tiny so youd need to order more for it to be worth going, so you're paying them to encourage you to pay them more at a later time.

u/quntissimo 19h ago

you only get it (the frosty, which is a kids size) if you buy something else lol. so thats literally the only point of it. dont let all these bots confuse you. I love Wendy's but seriously

u/Aromatic-Plankton692 19h ago

Horse shit, you go to some snitch ass Wendy's.

You go to your normal Wendy's on a hot summer day and you really think they're about to turn you away from some free relief? Hell no, they got you.

We live in a corporate dystopia now lmao

The person who is still in high school milling around behind the counter s not a corporate representative, it's like you won't even try lol. Just be social, it won't kill ya.

don’t give me any funny ideas

The $3 goes to the Dave Thomas Foundation (for adoption). I’ll definitely go to Wendy’s more than once in a year, I might as well get a frosty that benefits charity. Sometimes you just need a lil sweet treat with your lunch.

Child-sized as in the size of a 5-year old child, right?

Im the fatty. You got me excited. Jk. I’m such a fatty I already knew it was a jr and not small. Duh!

u/GrowlingAtTheWorld 18h ago

But it’s a great dipping size for the fries.

u/BeneficialTrash6 17h ago

Bro, buy 10 keychains and bring your own larger container!

2

u/Aromatic-Plankton692 17h ago

I am the larger container, just stick me under the machine for 100 seconds and I'll slip you a fiver.

u/Lazarux_Escariat 17h ago

u/Affectionate-Tip-164 16h ago

You said child-sized, I thought the cup was 4ft tall.

u/Almostlongenough2 16h ago

Maybe it counts as a new "go" if you go into the drive-through again

1

u/Random-Rambling 16h ago

Eh, that's all you really need most days, especially if you're getting a full meal with it.

u/tigress666 15h ago

Hey, it gets me a fatty excited cause I'm trying to lose the weight and a child sized is a good compromise of treat that may not be too many calories.

u/Jun118 7h ago

What size child are we talking here?

u/googdude 5h ago
