The promotion was started in the end of November to celebrate the Theatrical release of the Disney Pixar film A Bug's Life on Thanksgiving day of that year, trailer below:
There were three different promotions for the film at McDonald's. The first one was a gift card deal where you spent $5 dollars and got McDonald Dollars and a coupon book for Mattel toys. The Second promotion was for backpack clip watches you could buy separately for $1.99 each.
