Publicity for an event taking place on Monday, August 26 from 2-7 p.m. at Ace Hardware, 1415 W. Main St., appears to have been almost exclusively on social media. There isn’t even a poster about the event at the store, and personnel who were working there on Sunday knew almost nothing about it. Here’s what we know:
I Heart Cookie Co. of Wichita, Kansas manufactures the following flavors of “deep dish” cookies:

The company’s primary model for selling their cookies is to travel the country with one or more food trucks, sometimes with a display of animatronic dinosaurs and other times, it appears, with transformers. In order to view the exhibit, everyone of all ages must purchase at least one cookie for $5. The company does offer an opportunity to help in their publicity and consequently earn a free cookie.
A number of Facebook posts regarding I Heart Cookie’s recent dinosaur displays in other Wisconsin cities are positive both in terms of the display and the cookies.
Shown below is some of the information that has been posted on Facebook. This link may still allow for “earning” a cookie.
