Sorry for not updating the past week, but… actually, I HAVE been updating a lot! Actually, it’s been all “behind the scenes” stuff, but don’t worry, I’m here to help bring you up to speed. The “Et Cetera” Part This is gonna be just a quick notice, but while unpacking some of my stuff … BIG UPDATE OVERLOAD: First Partner Packs, General Mills, Penultimate McDonalds + Etc!
Alas, with the end of the McDonald’s Pokémon Promotion (at least in my neighborhood), I think it’s a nice time to look back upon it and share my overall thoughts about it. But since I’m lazy and I gotta wake up early in the morning, I’m actually gonna do none of that. HAH! Lol, naw, … Remaking the McDonald’s Promos: Part 1 (Cuz I’m Lazy)
So we’re three weeks into the McDonald’s Pokémon promo, and I suspect we have just one week left before McDonald’s moves on—based on their past behavior of one toy per week and there being four “toys” total—and my local McDonald’s STILL has Pokémon Happy Meals!

I’m gonna keep this news bit short and sweet, mostly because a lot of what I could talk about is already located on the actual “General Mills Pokémon Promos” page I just added.

I’m not gonna say it’s been a slow news day, only because… well, PA! isn’t in the Daily Pokémon News business much anymore… BUT we still are in the “Pokémon Data Agregation” business, which is why I’m gung-ho on this McDonald’s Pokémon stuff. It might also be spurred on by the whole “no one can … Moar McDonald’s Thoughts and Stuff!
Well, I’m three-for-three when it comes to McDonald’s goodies! So far every McDonald’s I’ve been to has always had Pokémon promo packs… of course I have to buy the Happy Meals (once I got tripped up in an awkward moment and lied when I said it was for my kids… 7o7 ) but two of … More McDonalds Fun
