Free Breakfast Experience



I’ve been waiting for this post for more than one week, but now the time has come! I will write about my one-week experience eating Free Breakfast sponsored by The Calgary Stampede Caravan!!
First, I didn’t know that during Calgary Stampede everyone who desires to eat a typical Calgary breakfast could get it for free! After my cousin, who has been living in Calgary for more than 20 years, told me that every year during The Calgary Stampede there is a Caravan that distributes free breakfast all around Calgary. Those breakfasts are given in specific places such as famous malls or shopping centers. She advised me about it and without any doubt I decided to follow the Caravan for one week. In fact, the Caravan started from Sunday 8 to Sunday15 (today).

My adventure began on Sunday 8 when I went to the GROUND (Stampede Park). Not only I got free breakfast, but also I got free entrance into the park! Therefore, I had such a great free day over there! I’m so cheap maybe haha, but never mind, let me keep you narrating my cheap adventure, I mean my free adventure.

The following day, Monday, which had such a bad weather, I went to NORTH HILL CENTRE located just in front of the Lions Park STN. I had my second free breakfast consisted on two pancakes, a good size of hamburger beef, fresh and yellow fry eggs, butter and honey all over the pancakes, and of course orange juice and coffee (unlimited).

Next day, Tuesday, I went to MARKET MALL, it was a pretty hot day, yet everything went okay.


Next day, Wednesday, I went to DALHOUSIE SHOPPING CENTER. Over there, I had one of my favorite breakfasts since I got twice pancakes. The first one I got it before I went to Dalhousie, actually I got it at the Olympic Plaza Park, and then, I went to get my full breakfast in Dalhousie.

Then, the next day was Thursday, and I went to NORTHLAND VILLAGE MALL which is located few minutes by bus after Dalhousie Stn.

The last day (kind of sad though), it was Friday, and I went to SUNRIDGE MALL and I got my free breakfast once more. Along with that, Sunridge is pretty close to my house and I was one of the first hungry fasting people to get breakfast!



Although on Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday the weather was extremely hot, it wasn’t enough sweltering weather to stop me going to get my breakfast! I had already set my plans and I couldn’t back out! What’s more I had a blast getting everything for free!



All that FREE -_- breakfast adventure happened before going to school. Not to mention the fact that I also got free newspapers and a small lamp made in China haha.
I really enjoyed getting free pancakes all week, and I will do it again next year! If anybody is willing to hang out with me next year, just give me a call next year during The Stampede!
