McDonald's give away free Reindeer Treats and you can make Rudolph appear in your living room

It is actually more than a little bit scary that Christmas is now just days away but McDonald's are aiming to relieve some of that festive stress by giving away an exciting freebie in time for Santa coming.

Just like they did last year, the famous fast food restaurant will help families across the UK get Reindeer Ready by giving away free bags of Reindeer Treats on Christmas Eve.

Everyone knows that Rudolph and his pals love nothing more than munching on a carrot, so McDonald's will be handing out bags of carrot sticks at restaurants all over the country while stocks last. Some restaurants have started handing them out already!

And that's not all they're doing. Customers can visit the Maccy D's Reindeer Ready Live hub  reindeerready.co.uk  where parents can capture footage of Rudolph appearing in their living room, using McDonald’s augmented reality technology. The digital tool allows parents to create a video of the reindeer enjoying carrots in their home to show the kids on Christmas morning.
