There is an old saying that, without advertising, nothing happens. Although there are many ways to advertise, many local businesses find that having a billboard in front of their establishment is one of the best options. You can often see them, regardless of whether it is a fast food restaurant, a liquor store or even a gas station. There are times, however, when those billboards are used for more than just advertising.
When a McDonald’s ran a special on their billboard for two Egg McMuffins for five dollars, it was just a little bit too much for a local liquor store to take. They ended up striking back with an offer for three Egg McMuffin’s for less! Of course, we know that the liquor store doesn’t offer McMuffin’s, but it was a funny way for these two businesses to have a little rivalry going. Fortunately, it kept going.
McDonald’s ran their breakfast special
The liquor store across the street threw down the challenge
McDonald’s fired back
Then things got a little ugly
Touché
Things got a little weird
McDonald’s hasn’t replied yet so we’ll see where this one goes.
