So we went to Golden Corral last night. You may remember that I say I regret every time I go, but yet I continue to go. Some of it, is that the kid's love it. Especially with their new "Wunder-Fountain." However I discovered a flaw in their dessert gimmick as I caught Chance, my son, make an ice-cream cone last night. Now I must admit, he got the idea from me, to make a chocolate dipped ice-cream cone, but what I failed to realize is that he, having now seen the idea would imitate it. Score two, for bad parenting. Actually I was quite proud of him, till I witnessed his uncontrollable urge to lick the ice-cream cone PRIOR to dipping it in the fountain. The more I thought about it, I realized, he's probably not the first. Have you ever seen kid's and cheese dip? They're oblivious to the double dip rule. After having watched the movie Contagion the night before, I quickly grabbed my son away from the dessert counter, doing that little sweeping head check thing like we just robbed a bank, and to see if anyone noticed our contaminating the entire fountain of liquid chocolate. I know a lot of people love Golden Corral because they're always running discounts and coupons, especially for students and military, and of course it's the one place you can eat till you throw up, but is the coupon really worth, dysentery?
If the answer is still yes, and undoubtedly it probably will, then consider the following information for procuring your own Golden Corral coupon:
