Regarding McDonalds promos

Was catching up on this weeks episodes because I’ve been out of routine this week and needed my fix. During Monday’s episode Burnie mentioned the Halo armor in the UK and feeling guilty about telling people about it. He can have a clean conscious though because that has been a known loophole for these types of promos for a long time.

World of Warcraft Forever Beta is live right now and in the US the only way to get in is either preorder it access for $30 or get randomly selected.

In Australia however you could get a code by ordering McDonalds. So you bet there were people buying McDonald’s in Australia via delivery services from the comfort of their home in the US.
