It’s a promotional strategy as efficient as its Sliders: Rather than roll out individual notices announcing each of its seasonal meal deals across the remainder of the year, White Castle has chosen to drop its entire discount schedule in one fell swoop. Looking over the full lineup of deals and special offers for the fall season, one thing is clear: White Castle really wants to give us free food. Constantly.
Per the announcement, there will be deals on offer all the way up to Thanksgiving, so every occasion from now until then is enough of a reason to hit the drive-thru. Here at The Takeout, we’re pretty entrenched in the inner workings of the fast food business and how these chains market themselves to customers. Usually, there might be some hints on social media in the days leading up to the unveiling of a big fast food promotion to get consumers excited enough to “tune in” to the announcement (as we saw with McDonald’s Grimace Shake). White Castle just... dumped it all out on the table.
Trust us when we say that dropping a public-facing calendar of deals and promotions all at once is rare—but we appreciate the opportunity to plan ahead. On that note, let’s get to the good stuff, and the reason you’re still reading. Bring on the slider deals.
