It’s time for the annual “Coffee for Our Military’ from McDonalds. McDonald’s local owner/operators of Peoria/Bloomington want to continue to show their gratitude to our military through the third annual “Buy One, Give One, McCafé Coffee for Our Military” program. For every cup of freshly brewed McCafé Coffee sold from October 31 through November 13, McDonald’s Restaurants of Peoria/Bloomington will match it, and send a cup to our active and veteran military members in the form of fresh coffee grounds.

Along with that it’s again time for the Hide and Go Sip Contest where you could win free coffee for a year! I will be live at McDonalds in the East Peoria Levee District Wednesday from 11-1pm giving clues on where to find the giant McDonalds coffee cup! The first person to find it and bring it to the store wins free coffee for a year! By the way…the first clue is that the cup will be somewhere in East Peoria! Good luck!
