It’s official: Anheuser-Busch can’t even give its product away following its calamitous transgender publicity stunt.
According to images shared on Twitter, stores in the Midwest are attempting to “sell” cases of Bud Light beer for free before they get skunky on the shelves, with the company offering up to a $15 rebate on products sold this Memorial Day weekend.
This from thefederalist.com.
Twitter user Michael Haz shared pictures of displays from two stores in beer-loving Wisconsin with the infamous brand attempting to offload 20-packs, originally priced at $15, for free after a rebate.
Notice that even with the freebie, the displays are stocked.
In a reply to Haz’s original post, user Dan D. Lion shared an image of a Michigan Meijer sale flyer advertising a mega 24-pack of the beverage for $3.49.

The few customers who buy Bud Light from May 17 to May 31 can submit their UPC and receipt online to receive a prepaid card for the value of their purchase.
But men, Anheuser-Busch’s key customer demographic, who are not exactly known for extreme couponing or putzing with rebates are also no longer known for drinking Bud Light.
Bud Light sales have plummeted since national boycotts over their partnership with transgender-identifying influencer Dylan Mulvaney, whose face the company plastered on a can to celebrate his self-proclaimed first year of “girlhood.”
Shortly after the trans fiasco, a 2021 interview emerged of a top Anheuser-Busch official describing how the brand uses so-called “diversity, equity, and inclusion” ideology, a euphemism for the discriminatory and divisive poison, when marketing its products.
In recent tweets, conservative commentator Matt Walsh celebrated the success of the Bud Light boycott, for which he and others advocated:
[C]alling for conservatives who complained about the Bud Light boycott to help us rather than scoffing on the sidelines.
NOTE: Similar initial pressure has found success after Target injected its “pro-trans satanist stance” into “pride”-themed clothing for kids.
Final thoughts: The success of Target consumers’ boycott remains to be seen whether Target will be given the full Bud Light treatment, however, the success of the Bud boycott certainly is a pleasure to hear about, to read about, and to take part in.
To recap, We the People-1 vs. Bud Light-0. We the People vs. Target—the challenge is still early, no score at this time, but We the People is pressuring and Target has no defense.
