Southern-style fried chicken, mashed potatoes, a honey butter biscuit and cold, hard cash -- now that's a value meal.

According to Nation's Restaurant News, quick-service chain Church's Chicken is sending CEO Harsha V. Agadi to stores on its home turf in Texas (the chain started in San Antonio in 1952) today to give away thousands of dollars in cash to randomly selected customers.

As part of the chain's "Random Acts of Goodness" campaign, Agadi will surprise the unsuspecting Church's patrons with $1,000 each -- not exactly chicken feed.
