Two of the nation’s oldest fast-food chains are celebrating birthdays by inviting customers to line up for some treats on the house. They’re among the food freebies we found this week.
White Castle is celebrating its 88th birthday by offering a coupon for an original slider that’s good through July 12.
Another White Castle promotion, for a pulled-pork slider, runs through June 30. The coupons are good for one sandwich per customer per visit.
Need something to wash it down with? Go over to your local A&W and get a free small root beer float from 2 to 8 p.m. Friday, June 19. A&W is celebrating its 90th anniversary.
No purchase is necessary to join in A&W’s party, but participation among outlets may vary, so you’ll want to check to see if your outlet is in on the deal.
Two days later, A&W will treat fathers to a Papa Burger for 90 cents in celebration of Father’s Day. Participation and prices may vary.
Other deals:
- There’s free coffee at Borders stores that have Seattle’s Best Coffee cafes with this coupon through Thursday, June 18.
- If you’re willing to buy three pretzels to get one free, Pretzelmaker and Pretzel Time are offering that deal at participating locations. No coupon is necessary, and the offer is good through July 27.
