Chick-fil-A: August Calendar Card Deal – FREE Large Drink

by

Chick-fil-A: Calendar CardAugust is winding down already. I feel like it flew by.

Homeschooling is going great! I have so much to post, but my days and nights are invested in curriculum, grading, and preparing for the next day.

We are finding our groove and the learning is occurring in leaps and bounds. It is really exciting, and I love teaching my children all.the.time.

With all our happenings this month, we haven’t visited Chick-fil-A in August – yet. For the August Calendar Card Deal, each cardholder will receive a FREE large Coca-Cola soft drink of your choice. The card says soft drink, but most Chick-fil-A restaurants will substitute the soft drink for tea or lemonade.

If you have a Chick-fil-A calendar card, remember to snag your FREE large drink before Saturday, August 30, 2014. Though this offer officially ends on August 31, Chick-fil-A locations are closed on Sundays. Therefore, Saturday is the last day for this deal. Happy savings!

Question: How often does your family visit Chick-fil-A?

Wendy’s: Key Tag Expires Sunday, August 31, 2014

Sadly, the Wendy’s Key Tag promotion expires Sunday, August 31, 2014. This delightful promotion offered numerous snacks and quick lunches throughout our spring and summer.

With each purchase, we showed our key tags and received a FREE Jr. Frosty in our choice of chocolate or vanilla. The small size was perfect for a refreshing treat.

If you have a Wendy’s Key Tag, then check the back of the tag for the expiration date. Not all key tags expire on August 31, 2014, but most of them do.

As a last goodbye to summer, we might need to make a stop on Sunday for our last FREE Jr. Frosty under this promotion. The vanilla is my favorite, but I have to remember to eat slowly to prevent a painful brain freeze. Happy refreshment!

Question: Do you get brain freezes (the pain headache when you eat something cold)?
