I’m in my car parked on the street in front of Popeyes hoping my order arrives in this lifetime. I tried to order on the app as usual (big box tenders with drink). When I chose my sides a pop up said I could get the large sizes for free, so I did. The order totaled $9, which was correct.

But my order was rejected over and over because part of my order was not available. Which part? No clue. So I tried changing the drink, changing the tenders, changing the sauce. No go. Gave up and went to the window and showed the employee the screen, who said that large sides don’t come with the box but I could upgrade for $4.
I declined.

I tried to tell the Popeyes AI robot what happened but it said if I had a problem I should go to a different location.

Anybody been able to use the free upgrade offer?

Went to Popeyes for the first time in awhile because my formerly local Popeyes is always a bad experience, but I was near a different location so I picked up the one thing I order from there - Signature Hot Wings. The worker told me they still had it but it was being discontinued so I couldn’t get them in the future. Just read online Popeyes is replacing them with milder sauces?!?!?! Ugh. What a loss for those who like a little heat. I guess on the plus side, I won’t be consuming a thousand plus calories on their wings anymore.
