Members of the Wendy’s Rewards program had one hour today to claim one of twenty specially decorated Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III cameras through the brand’s app. The giveaway closed out a four-week run of limited merchandise drops that started back in mid-May and handed out everything from totes to jerseys in tiny quantities that vanished almost as soon as each window opened.
Wendy’s was the only place where you could see the complete series every Wednesday at 3 p.m. Eastern. Every one of those drops lasted either 60 minutes or until the stock was entirely depleted, and at the rate they were selling it, the prior rounds were done in record time. So, if you didn’t want to miss out on any of the goodies, you’d need to keep the app open, log in to your Rewards account, and turn on notifications so that the claim link displayed as soon as it was live.

- Effortless Framing - Enjoy Xtra Muse's expansive 2-inch touch screen, and switch between horizontal and vertical shooting effortlessly.
This final drop was a little unusual, as it featured a real working camera rather than the usual t-shirts or bags. Wendy’s partnered to obtain a limited number of Canon PowerShot G7 X Mark III cameras outfitted in a one-of-a-kind custom crimson finish. Each graphic depicted different Wendy’s menu items, such as burgers, fries, and nuggets. You also get the Wendy’s symbol and a stylized replica of the original Wendy portrait, all for nearly a grand ($880).
This camera is a small, portable device that can capture both images and video. It has a one-inch sensor and a great all-around zoom lens. It’s a popular choice for users who enjoy vlogging on the road, while Wendy’s custom theme keeps all of that capacity, as well as a distinctive design that you won’t find anywhere else.
To be eligible, you needed to be at least 18 years old, live in one of the 50 states or Washington, D.C., and have a Rewards account set up on the official Wendy’s app. That was all; there was no need to buy food or pay anything; merely click the link and follow the on-screen instructions before the 20 units were gone.
