FREE FOOD
- Wear orange to Whataburger on August 3rd, from 5 p.m. to 8 p.m., and get a free burger!
- Use FourSquare and like to eat at Chili’s? Then you’ll love this: when you check in on FourSquare when you’re at Chili’s, you’ll get a free appetizer of chips and salsa.
- At participating Wendy’s locations, you can purchase a Dave Thomas Foundation keychain for $1 and then enjoy a free Frosty Jr. (with purchase) through October 31st. Yum!

FREE FUN

- Kids can hit the lanes for free games this summer at all 93 Brunswick Zone and Brunswick Zone XL centers. Every day this summer, students age 18 and younger can bowl one free game whenever lanes are available. Shoe rental is not included. To claim their games, students just need a Student Ball Pass, which you can get for free at any Brunswick center or online here.
- Take your kids to the movies for free this summer at Regal Cinemas. Every Tuesday and Wednesday at 10 a.m., you will be able to see a selected G or PG movie for free. (Note: Tickets and seating are first-come, first-served and are limited to theatre capacity.)
MISCELLANEOUS FREEBIES
- Earn free gas cards by helping the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society raise money for its Light the Night Walks doing online fundraising during July and August. You can earn $50 worth of free gas for every $500 you raise , or $15 gas cards for every $250 raised online (while supplies last). (Since one of my daughter’s classmates was just diagnosed with leukemia, this cause means even more to us now.)
