Today is Wednesday, July 11th. Today National Blueberry Muffin Day is celebrated.

Yesterday I made peanut butter banana bread...now I'm thinking that would be even yummier with a handful or two of blueberries tossed into the batter!

Yeah, Pina Colada is rum, pineapple juice, coconut cream, ice. They are really good. I prefer spiced rum though, with coke or root beer.

Not everything about Friday the 13th is bad.

Today is FryDay Friday....National French Fry Day!

There are a few French fry specials happening. McDonald's has a coupon app that you can download and get a free medium order of fries today with any purchase of $1 or more.

Some of the larger chains have "bottomless fries" or free fries with a more expensive purchase.

Dominoes is running 50% off all menu prices on pizzas through 7-15-18. (Online orders only.)

(I'd rather make my own since I found a good copycat Pizza Hut deep dish dough recipe.)

Einstein Bros. is giving away a free mac 'n cheese bagel with any purchase (if you're a member of their rewards program).

I would love to try it but I won't be going out today just for that. I don't belong to their rewards program anyway.

I won't either...I rarely eat out...but I am thinking about making some mac 'n cheese today for dinner, so it should be a gouda day!

Most of the specials I've found since I started this thread require downloading an app and ordering through that or showing an electronic coupon on your phone. I only have a "dumb" flip phone. It's phone discrimination, I tell ya'! :angrywoman:

You don't have a smartphone? I don't either. I thought I was the only one. I've never heard of Einstein Bros., but according to Google closest one is 2 hours away. Too far to drive for mac 'n cheese, easier to just make it. :)

National Pasta Day is October 17th! It seems like all my favorite foods are in the fall/winter. Sorry Orange for going out of order! :D

I don't have a smart phone either. The only phone I have is a land phone. I think Einstein Bros has good bagels. We have one about 10 minutes away.

The only thing we have on that list is Dairy Queen. But I would have to buy a Smartphone to do it. Might as well buy the Blizzard myself, it would be cheaper. :D

Indeed it is Sunday, July 15th, and National Ice Cream Day!

The is probably mainly the same listing, and yes, most deals require a smartphone app:
Here's Where You Can Get Free Ice Cream For National Ice Cream Day
If you are by yourself do you just get free ice cream or does your whole family get free ice cream if you have them there?

I did not know they gave free stuff. Either way I lose because I don't have a smartphone and I would not go out of my way just to get a free sample.
