DALLAS — When Stacy Breen of Dallas got home from work on Friday, she discovered a box in the mail filled with five bags of pita chips made by a Boston snack company named Stacy's.
Stacy's plan is deviously clever in that it got this picture posted on the site.
Breen, who works for an art school, looked online and saw stories about the company plan to mail chips to every person in the country whose name was spelled S-t-a-c-y.
"I called my other friend Stacy who spells her name the way I do, and she had gotten them, too," she said.
Breen is one of about 133,000 Stacys across the country. According to the FWST, the Dallas-Fort Worth area has the nation's sixth-highest concentration.
The chip giveaway was part of a company plan to become a national brand in the supermarket.
