Japan McDonald Co. Ltd. announced on the 20th that it would give out a free hamburger ticket: “ENJOY! 60-second service", if food were not made ready within 60 seconds after being ordered, starting from 4th January next year.

The target would include all items in the menu, and if the time for passing over the food exceeded 60 seconds after paying the bill, a customer could get a free hamburger ticket that could be used to exchange for one popular hamburger "Big Mac" (usual price of 290- 340 yen) etc. A free coffee ticket could be handed out even within less than 60 seconds.

On the Coming-of-Age Day on January 14 next year, Big Mac would be given out to new adults as a free present. From 10:30 am on the 14th to 4:59 a.m. on the 15^th, at a McDonald store, if one could show some items which could prove the age, such as a car license, it would be given out to him for free. The targets were those who were born between April 2, 1992 and April 1, 1993.

I think to give out fee items is a good way to promote business.
