    Go to Starbucks on Nov. 4th tell them you voted and get a free tall cup of brewed coffee. You can't beat that!

    Not really, there's a coffee chain here called Dutch Bros that gives free coffee all day every so often, and all weekend when they open another store for it in town, it gives them business, which in turns makes profits <_<;

    My friend just said Eureka isn't doing that... *shrug* She works at Starbucks XD

    Why tell them you voted when you can wear the "I Voted" shades! My friend came to see me and she had the sun glasses that said it on them. I hope they give me some tomorrow!

    If you go to a participant Krispy Kream they'll give you a free special edition doughnut

    [​IMG]

    This sounds like a good incentive!!!

    In order to "applaud Americans who exercise their right to vote in the 2008 Presidential campaign", Krispy Kreme will be giving all voters a FREE doughnut on election day!

    So, on Tuesday, November 4th, all participating Krispy Kreme stores will offer you one free star-shaped doughnut with red, white, and blue sprinkles!

    In order to claim your free doughnut, you just need to show up with your "I Voted" sticker they hand out at the polls after voting.

    A rep from Krispy Kreme said, "We can't guarantee that your candidate of preference will win on November 4, but we can guarantee that your right to voice your choice will be rewarded with a patriotic doughnut that will remind you just how tasty freedom really is. Krispy Kreme encourages everyone to take part in this historical election and vote."

    So instead of thinking of this as a marketing ploy or a bribe (a vote in exchange for a doughnut), let's think of it as a nice, free thank you for doing the right thing.

    Go VOTE on November 4th and make a difference!

    quote from Shawna, a friend

    Many Ben & Jerry's shops are giving away a free scoop of ice cream if you vote too! I don't live around any of these things, but for those of you who do it's a good deal! :slight_smile:

    I feel like drinking coffee for the first time in 15 years (not counting a sip I took a couple weeks ago)
