"Putting out cookies on Christmas Eve is a fun, family holiday tradition, and the Cookies for Santa giveaway is a simple way to provide our guests with some extra holiday cheer," explains Kristen Temple, Macaroni Grill's vice president of marketing. All Colorado Macaroni Grill restaurants will be participating in the cookie giveaway, and also handing out a $10 gift card with the purchase of a Macaroni Grill gift card worth $25 or more.
