If you haven’t noticed, fall is coming. Of course Labor Day is our annual reminder of the fact that it’s time to (supposedly) put away our white pants, and get ready for the onslaught of pumpkin spice products about to hit store shelves.
The first Monday of September means many American workers need not show up for work, so if you don’t already have plans, you might as well score some of these delicious free food deals with your day off — and remember at the restaurants to tip generously. It may be a day off for you, but those in the restaurant industry aren’t so lucky.
Baskin-Robbins
Score scoops for just $1.50 on August 31 in honor of the shop’s original 31 flavors. Then, plan another visit on Sunday, September 2 between 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. for a free sample of the chain’s Pumpkin Cheesecake Cappuccino Blast frozen beverage.
Burger King
Burger King’s new grilled hot dogs will only cost you $1 this Saturday and Sunday. Also, order up to $15 worth of Burger King grub via the DoorDash App, and get it delivered for free August 31 through September 3, from participating restaurants.
Dairy Queen
Now through Labor Day, DQ fans with the company’s app can score BOGO sundaes and shakes. If you’re downloading the app for the first time, you’ll also qualify for a free small Blizzard. If you need a little more than ice cream to sustain your holiday, you can also pick up a $4 burger and Blizzard deal.
Firehouse Subs
Bring this coupon to the sandwich shop on Monday and received a free medium sub with purchase of sub, chips, and drink.
