Ah, who doesn’t remember the thrill of reading flirtatious notes of Valentine’s-driven affection from your sweetheart or secret admirer as a kid?
Whataburger is tapping into our love of nostalgia (and Whataburger) by offering downloadable sweet love notes (like the one below) inspired by the restaurant. That’s all well and good, but what you probably really care about is the free Whataburger for a year they are also offering.
While fancy restaurants around the city offer pricy prix fixe meals on Valentine’s Day (one of the two or three best days of the year for restaurants), Whataburger is luring burger-loving couples into their stores the week before Valentine’s Day for the chance to win Whataburger for a year.
Here’s how the contest works: Between now and February 8, competing couples should post a photo on social media with the tag #WhataloveContest for the chance to win Whataburger Date Night for a year. I’m sure the cheesier the better. Thre winners will be selected for the grand prize – 52 dates (104 meals) at Whataburger for the next year. (Winners actually get a gift card for the estimated amount).
So, if you see some people next to you sharing a chocolate shake with two straws and a selfie stick in the coming days, you know what’s up. Heck, you could just grab a stranger to take a photo with you. Who knows, maybe you’ll find true love. Winners will be announced on Valentine’s Day. Complete details at Whataburger.com.
