Frustrating McDonalds promotion

The Herald Sun McDonalds promotion is frustrating.  While I am aware of it, a distribution agent handling one of my stores had not made arrangements so our Sunday team were left scrambling to sort out what to do.  My understanding that that there is to be a settling up of collection coupons at the end of the promotion. My view is that if I am giving away a free newspaper today then I ought to have the full cover price credit showing on the account this week.

As I have noted here before, I think this McDonalds promotion does no favours to the newsagency channel. Publishers should work harder  with us on building newspaper sales in our businesses.
