April 15th

Oh great. Today is tax day. That means I will be taking a drive to the post office at approximately 4:45pm. Why should I give my money any earlier to people who will just turn around and spend it on something stupid. I could say what I think is stupid, but I don't want to offend anyone that might read this.


On a good note, today is also freebie day. Or maybe a way of some businesses saying "Sorry, I know you have no money today of all days, but if you come to our place of business & spend money that you don't have, we'll give you something free as a Thank you".



Here are just a few I found.


Starbucks: Free coffee, you just have to supply the mug. (I'm sure you can buy one there for under $10)



Rubio's: Free Grilled Gourmet Taco. (just print coupon off their web site) I love Rubio's!!



McDonald's: Free Southern style chicken biscuit or chicken sandwich (check local stores to see if they are participating)



Chick-Fil-A: free mini-biscuits from 6-10:30am ( again, call & see if local stores are participating)



Cinnabon: bite size cupcakes from 6-8pm

(what luck, the hubby is flying home today. Maybe he'll get me a cupcake)



T.G.I. Fridays: $5 gift card on purchases between $15-$25. $10 card for more that $25 purchase.



Taco Del Mar: Free taco w/printed coupon (they have yummy fish tacos also)



Maggie Moo's: 1 free slice of ice cream pizza between 3-7PM



Ben & Jerry's: Free Cone Day



Dunkin Donuts: Free donut w/coffee purchase.



P.F. Chang's: 15% dinner discount



Papa John's: Lg pizza w/3 toppings for $10.40. Order on-line & coupon code "1040"



Office Depot & Staples: Free copy of tax documents (up to 25 pages)



Baja Fresh: $2 Burrito



Subway: Free cookie (they have a great snicker doodle cookie)



Ok, so those are a few things I found. Here are a few more for AFTER tax day.



Jack in the Box: Friday, April 16th....free small fry (at participating stores)



iTunes: People Magazine is offering 10 free songs from the "Country Sampler". (get code from People Magazine web site) Also: iTunes has a weekly free download.



Target: Sunday, April 18th only, get a free reusable bag w/any purchase
