My mum once told me: ” If you persevere with the impossible, you can achieve the unlimited.”
It appears that my mum was right, but hadn’t told me about the brother I never knew.
For perseverance is but one word that can be used to describe J Chew.

In his case, it was his perseverance that brought about something so limited, so treasured, that it’s going for about $300 bucks on Carouhellsell now.
Chump Change.
Limited Edition McGriddles – A RecapÂ
Now, this article isn’t about a Jay Chou super fan with an almost similar namesake.
It is about a super fan alright, a McDonald’s Limited Edition McGriddles® super fan.
If you don’t already know, the ultra-limited, ultra-rare Pokemon breakfast item that is McGriddles has been back for some time.
It was relaunched in Singapore on 27 February and will be available for a limited time only.
To celebrate the relaunch of the hallowed Limited Edition McGriddles, McDonald’s held a one-day special giveaway at its SpringLeaf Tower outlet.
The first 100 meals purchased entitled its hungry kin to a super exclusive McGriddles hoodie pictured below.

Needless to say, throngs of people flocked down to SpringLeaf Towers and their McGriddles sold like Hot Cakes.
J Chew Super Fan
Fast forward to March 29 and the world found out about a McGriddles hoodie, in Black.
Back to Black.
Look at how the yellow “M” insignia, yellow cheese and yellow egg juxtaposes against the perfect black background to capture your attention?
And capture McDonald’s attention did J Chew, pictured in the image, did.

Here’s McDonald’s full post on McGriddles super fan, J Chew.
If you can’t read the text, here it is:
Hype always burns quick, but not for this Limited Edition McGriddles® Super Fan. Introducing J.Chew.
A man of mystery who knew what he wanted, and never stopped asking for the Limited Edition McGriddles®.
28 times across 28 different posts to be exact. To thank him for his unlimited love, we’ve surprised him with the McGriddles® ultra-rare black hoodie to rep with pride!

For the rest of us, snap up your serving of Limited Edition McGriddles®. Because the word on the street is true — good things happen to those who hustle. Taste the hype.
Yes, J brought hustle to the bustling McDonald’s Facebook page, spammed and politely reminded them that the Singaporean population needed their McGriddles back, in no less than 28 different posts.
That’s more times than the number of letters in “perseverance”. Dang.Â
Rewarded For His Determination
For that, J was rightly awarded an ultra-rare black (see what I did there) McGriddles hoodie that not even the grey McGriddles hoodie cannot hold a candle too.
Now if you remember, I had hinted that the grey McGriddles hoodie was roughly in the ballpark figure of $300 on Carousell.
That’s not mumbo-jumbo as you can see from the Carousell screenshot below.

But hey, that was the grey one and dear J Chew now holds on to the black one.
How much more do you think it will sell for?
That said, I highly suspect it will be in J’s hands for some time to come, possibly wearing it every time he orders his McGriddles.
