A man from Oregon devised a cunning plan to make the most of Wendy's offering free chicken nuggets nationwide, by visiting 11 different drive-thrus in one day.

After experiencing 'tough times' the Twitter user, by the name of Skweezy Jibbs, set out on a mission to travel 17 miles across two states collecting four-piece chicken nugget snacks as Wendy's offered them free on Friday.

'I hit every damn Wendy's twice within 17 miles across 2 states. It took 5 hours but now we are eating free for a week WHAT IT DOOOOOO.'

The thrifty planner mapped a route around various Wendy's in the greater Portland and Vancouver area, bypassing the 'one per person' rule on the promotion. 

Collecting a total of 88 nuggets Mr Jibbs said he now didn't need to buy any food for a week.

Wendy's tweeted in reply: 'That’s just straight up impressive ngl (not going to lie).'

The tweet gained the attention of thousands including Wendy's fast food chain itself, who praised Mr Jibbs for the 'impressive' swindle.

Others were less than impressed as they claimed Mr Jibbs would have spent more money on fuel than it would have cost to buy the nuggets.

Mr Jibbs mission began last week when Wendy's put out a good spirited tweet offering free nuggets on Friday April 24

Twitter user Richard Donahue said: 'It costs at least .50 per mile to operate a vehicle, so this cost over $30 for the free nuggets...' 

However others noted that the price of gas was down, with Mr Jibbs hitting back: 'The gas was already in the tank, I didn't pay a dime'. 

Mr Jibbs mission began last week when Wendy's put out a good spirited tweet offering free nuggets on Friday April 24: 'Not gonna lie, all this love y’all are showing has inspired us. We wish we could give you a hug, but instead…how about a nug? 

'This Friday, we’ll be giving out free 4pc spicy and crispy nugs at every Wendy’s drive-thru. No purchase necessary, not a single string attached.'
