KFC offers its 2-Piece Kentucky Grilled Chicken Meal for free via this printable coupon (http://www.unthinkfc.com/). That's the best freebie deal we've ever seen from KFC. The coupons are valid through May 19, although they can't be used on May 10 (Mother's Day)."-dealnews

I was just about to post this but you beat me to it, which is of course, infinitely better than nobody posting it at all.
Please note that the coupon must be printed today or tomorrow (after which they’ll most like remove the offer). I was able to print out more than one, each with a unique number/bar code.
QUOTE: “Coupon available for printing from 9am CDT 5/5/09 to 9:59pm CDT 5/6/09.”

I just printed one out 5 minutes ago. I've already seen pictures that the lines are long and there are riots at some locations. Some places will not take the coupon

This was on Fox News this morning. People takes this seriously. Oprah was offering this coupon on her website. Lines out the door. Wondering how this will spin. Is this one of the best marketing ploys in history or the biggest advertising blunder ever?
Praise the Lord and pass a wing (original recipe)!

I went to two KFC's the other day in the San Fernando Valley, and neither accepted the coupons I printed. Interestingly enough they both had different reasons for rejecting the coupon. The first one said that the coupons needed to printed in color (I'm not sure why). The second one said that the coupons needed a unique bar code (not ending 1234). I told them that they posted a .pdf version on the unthinkkfc.com website but they still would not accept it.
I heard some people were able to do it, but just a note of warning that these coupons may not work. Good luck.

Nice. Again the power of Oprah. What did they think was going to happen after the most famous woman in the world featured the coupon?
