US$ 4.99 for 8 pieces of chicken - that was the special Popeyes ran in one of their national campaigns. Several stores in the Rochester, NY area ran out of the product/special and created anger and frustration among their consumers. Some location’s drive-through windows had recorded messages or signs that said the store ran out of chicken as a result of the special. Other stores were simply closed during dinner time.
Popeyes responded by saying that some stores are franchised owned and operated and as such, they are individually responsible for keeping their own inventories.
Popeyes has some pretty good chicken though…
