The Valpak Dining Survey asked over 1,700 U.S. adults to determine what influences their dining choices and motivates them to try or switch restaurants based on incentives. Our respondents dished out some tasty details about where people want QSR coupons from; we put it into this blog and shared it. Then, we took it a step further with our results and combined them with MRI-Simmons (a leader in insights on the American consumer), foot traffic data for the past six months—and it’s something to see:
