actually, the thought of reporting it in exchange for goodies has crossed my mind. I'm not sure if they will actually go for it...but I might try (then I might see what the rip-off will do to avoid a nasty law-suit...hehe).

They did have Wendy's here but they failed so they pulled the whole franchise out.
