Okay, so it’s not exactly free, but it’s close enough. I’m sure many of you have heard of this promotion already, but it’s a pretty darn good deal so I felt the need to share. At participating locations, Quiznos is offering a buy one sandwich, get one for $1 deal. That’s any size sandwich, which means you could buy a large, or foot-long, or whatever they call it, and get another one of the same size for a buck! You’d be saving like, five dollars. Not bad. There’s two catches – the first is that both subs must be the same kind, and the second is that the deal only applies to four of their sandwiches: Classic Italian, Traditional, Turkey Ranch & Swiss and Mesquite Chicken. Most of those are pretty self-explanatory, but what the heck does “Traditional” mean? I guess I should buy one, or, rather, two, to find out. This deal is for a limited time only – I read somewhere it ends on August 9th, but that wasn’t officially stated. Either way, get your $1 sammiches while you can!
Today and next Monday (August 3rd), participating locations of McDonald’s are offering free iced and hot coffees from 7am to 7pm. Apparently, it’s mochas only, and apparently, they are “sample” sized (8 ounces), so caffiene addicts shouldn’t expect to catch a buzz unless they plan on McDonald’s-hopping all over the city. Considering it’s late July, I would suggest getting the iced version, but if you’re a big fan of drinking a diuretic that’s also hot when it’s 100 degrees outside, knock yourself out. I haven’t had their fancy mochas with the whipped cream and the chocolate syrup and the hey lady!, but I’ve had their regular iced coffee and it’s surprisingly good for having come from a restaurant that makes burgers that look like they’ve been run over by a pickup truck. Enjoy!
