@hardees delivers

Update, Dec. 21, 2011: I cashed in the coupon for the Thickburger today. It was a decent burger. I still think I would have preferred a biscuit and gravy, which is what I originally ordered but didn’t get. Oh well.

For those of you wondering whether @hardees made good on the promise of delivering a Thickburger coupon, the answer is a resounding yes.

I received my coupon in the mail just a few days after posting about my experience with a Springfield, Mo., Hardee’s several weeks ago. (See Shankman got his steak, I’m getting a Thickburger: a tale of two tweets.)

Here’s photographic evidence.

I’ll let you know how the burger tastes.

2. 12 ways to let people know they matter. Good tips on how not to be a schmuck.

3. 12 content marketing predictions for 2012. 2012 predictions? Already?
