Participating McDonald’s locations will offer FREE McCafe coffee during breakfast hours from March 31 through April 13, 2014.

Per the McDonald’s press release:

Wake up and taste the free coffee! McCafe invites coffee drinkers across the U.S. to stop by their local participating McDonald’s restaurant for a freshly brewed small McCafe coffee during McDonald’s first-ever national Free Coffee Event.  Free McCafe coffee is available during breakfast hours starting March 31 through April 13 in participating restaurants.

Though the press release does not include the cities included in this deal, I know many of you are coffee drinkers.

Keeping an eye on your local McDonald’s for their participation may net you a hot cup of joe. Enjoy!

Question: What is your favorite beverage of choice?

According to the Ben & Jerry’s Facebook page:

Free Cone Day is on 8th April! It’s the Ben & Jerriest Day of the year! So, make sure you swing by one of our participating scoop shops around the world and grab yourself a FREE cone. Since 1979, Ben & Jerry’s has been thanking fans for their support in the best way they knew how: with a free cone of the chunkiest, funkiest ice cream around!

If you are fortunate enough to live near a participating location, then enjoy your FREE cone on Thursday, April 8, 2014. Enjoy!

Happy FREE Cone Day!

On another cold and rainy day, I’m looking forward to the change in seasons this week.

Not only due to the hope of warmer weather, but also because Rita’s is celebrating with FREE Italian ice on March 20, 2014. Yay!

Along with the start of the Men’s NCAA Basketball Tournament, we get to enjoy a FREE Italian ice on Thursday. Rita’s Italian Ice celebrates the first day of spring by giving each guest a FREE Italian ice in an available flavor of your choice.

This event is quite popular in our area. A couple years back, our choice was limited to two flavors: lemonade or cherry. By narrowing the selection, our local Rita’s was able to keep up with the demand as many guests were served in a short amount of time.

Please understand that you might find your location limiting the choices to keep the crowd moving. But all are welcome to enjoy a FREE Italian ice on March 20, 2014.

To find a Rita’s Italian Ice location near you, check this store locator. Schedule a stop between 12:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. to enjoy your first Italian ice of spring. Happy celebrating!

Question: Do you have a favorite Italian ice flavor?

Getting ready to adjust our clocks this Saturday night for the Sunday morning time change, we are also scheduling a visit to a participating Krispy Kreme Doughnuts.

Understanding the tiredness of losing an hour of sleep, participating Krispy Kreme Doughnuts stores will spike sugar levels by granting each guest a FREE original glazed doughnut on Sunday, March 9, 2014.

With no purchase necessary or coupon required, you and your family can yawn over a sweet treat together.

This offer is valid all day long at participating locations in honor of Daylight Savings Time.

If you still have Valentine’s Day coupons to redeem, then note that those coupons expire on Saturday, March 15. Those coupons are good for a FREE doughnut of your choice. 🙂

Set those clocks forward, lose your hour of sleep, and gain a FREE original glazed doughnut from Krispy Kreme Doughnuts this Sunday, March 9, 2014. Yum!

Available through tomorrow, Friday, March 7, APlus Sunoco locations will grant a FREE 2 oz. single-serve pack of Oreo cookies to those who redeem this coupon.

This deal is limited to APlus Sunoco stations. Please check this store and gas station locator to find a participating APlus Sunoco near you. Just select APlus under “refine search by” to find the right location.

If you have an APlus Sunoco nearby and plan to visit, then print this coupon for your FREE Oreo cookies. The limit is one per customer, while supplies last.

Since there is not an APlus Sunoco location close to us, we will continuing baking cookies in our new oven. I love having my kitchen back to normal. It’s the little things like cookies and ovens that make me happy. 🙂 Enjoy your weekend!

Special thanks to Christina for sharing this deal via e-mail!

Question: If you know of other deals, please let me know via Facebook or e-mail (usingtimewisely (at) gmail (dot) com).
