The early bird gets the worm, or so they say.
And when Texas Chicken gave out chicken bags on Sunday (April 16) morning to celebrate its 13th anniversary in Singapore, people started swarming the fast food chain's outlets for the freebies.
This, however, took a toll on one employee, who had to inform disappointed diners that the free item was out of stock.
Customers who purchased a meal deal — or Chick Deal as they called it — for $13.90 each from 11am onwards on Sunday can redeem the chicken bag.
A TikTok video shared by Usman Choo showed a staff member weeping outside Texas Chicken's Century Square outlet as a passer-by comforted her.
Choo, 44, told AsiaOne that he was at Texas Chicken's Century Square outlet at around 4pm and the bags were already out of stock by then.
"Two aunties told the staff member that they were waiting [in line] for five hours. She was still calm and composed at that time," he said.
"She burst into tears and ran [outside] after an uncle nagged at her to honour the redemption by taking down the names and phone numbers of those who were in the queue."




Choo's video has since garnered more than 100,000 views as well as hundreds of comments.

In the comments section, several netizens urged the public to be more sympathetic towards those working in the food and beverage industry.

While some blamed the diners there for stressing out the Texas Chicken employee, one netizen said that the fault lies with the way the restaurant handled the queues.

"Can't blame the customers. If they did a stock count and [gave] a cut off line where the bag would run out then people wouldn't make noise," he wrote.

Unhappy netizens also took to Texas Chicken's Facebook post to complain about issues with the queues at various outlets.

While the fast food chain said the promotion is on "while stocks last", it is unclear how many chicken bags have been given out.

AsiaOne has reached out to Texas Chicken for comment.

For those who missed out on this promotion, it looks like you can still get your hands on the adorable chicken bag.

AsiaOne did a quick search on Carousell and found some people have listed the "limited edition" items there for up to $60 each.

But others have found more wallet-friendly alternatives. The same chicken bags are sold on online platforms such as Shopee from $9 onwards.

That's why I say its a world crass or no class place of sheep -people queue for anythinng that is free and it's also a sign that people are cash strapped and many are unemployed /underemployed and have the time to queue

That's why you never give anything free in Sinkeepoo or selling something perceived to be expensive at a low price.

Remember Swatch Omega? Even telling them that the watches are not limited edition, stupid farkers still spend their precious time queuing for days. :biggrin:

If daft Sinkies could queue up for hours for a shitty Huawei phone, queueing up for this shouldn't come as a surprise at all. :cool:
 
They should partner with me.
Those who queued but didn't get the bag can get a pussy flog from me.
