I think it needs to be ordered in-store with the cashier, but you'll need to scan the barcode from the app to get the discount.

I love this place but made the mistake of trying to go on freebie day - line like 100+ deep - instant turn around - this will work because the deadbeats wont show for a deal where they'll have to actually pay

Dave's Hot Chicken's free slider promo works best as a low-cost way to try the chain's spicy chicken, especially when the app reward is applied correctly. The slider can be redeemed in the app or online, sometimes by scanning a code in store, and the price drops once the reward is found in checkout. Some locations require a small minimum purchase, and the offer may not appear without logging out and back in. Crowds, slow service, and a few location limits can make the experience less smooth.

Common Questions (5)

Log in as a Frequent Fryer member, then find the slider reward in the checkout rewards section and apply it. Some locations also require scanning the app barcode in-store, and the slider item must be added to the cart for the discount to process.

The promo is listed as free with any purchase, but some stores require a minimum purchase of about $3 to place the online order. One location also required adding a low-cost item, such as a $0.50 sauce packet, to complete checkout.

Yes, the offer can be redeemed online and the price should drop at checkout when the reward is applied. That avoids the long freebie-day lines, though some stores still require in-store scanning or a small minimum purchase.

Freebie-day lines can be very long, with one location described as 100+ deep. The paid-purchase requirement may reduce crowding, and online redemption can avoid the line entirely.

No. The offer is reported as not valid at Wisconsin locations, so availability can depend on the store.

But this one you have a whole week to redeem so there should be some moments when it's not too crazy.

Same drove by and kept on going was not worth the waiting line.

Thanks for info, I saw the fountain drink as only option as well until I closed the app and reopened and now the slider is there.

Why does SD require multi-factor authentication just to post a comment? Crazy!

You may be on a sketchy connection like a VPN.

This site prob gets hit with people pushing their products

Wait, this "slider" is their regular size sandwich? And they have sliders but they call them mini sliders? Weird marketing department.

Well, a "tender" is equal to a whole damn chicken filet from KFC or Popeye's, etc. I kind of appreciate it because it's moving the opposite direction from most places, which will keep the bigger item name and downsize rather than upsizing the smaller item.

Also, got my free one yesterday with purchase. The promo says "one per customer per day" but it's only available once throughout the promo period. Oh well. Was fantastic as always. And I ordered online with it so no wait in line.

May be a multi location franchisee who they can't get to participate in promos.

Offer says it applies at checkout but I went all the way to submit payment and the price never went down, not willing to deal with refund troubles to find out if indeed it would charge the right amount.

For me when I got to checkout there's a little rewards section. I scrolled until I found the slider reward, hit apply, and the price lowered.

Easy meal. Had a craving for Hot Dave's. You do have to sign up and sign out and sign back in to see the free slider. if you don't you'll just see the free drink offer.
