Oftentimes, when we read about an eats-oriented or beverage-focused national holiday, we have to pause and attempt to recall the last time we enjoyed the foodstuff in question.
Typically? It's been awhile. But when National Coffee Day comes back around, most of us don't have to ponder at length as to when we recently had a cup of joe.
Because honestly? We're probably drinking coffee while we're reading the news of National Coffee Day.
Which will steam, like a freshly brewed pot, on Sept. 29. Your local coffeehouse may be doing it up, deals-wise, but if you're looking for a free cup or a BOGO special, check out some of the caffeinated happenings below.
The Helpful Honda Guys will be out at a quartet of Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf shops on Sunday, Sept. 29 as part of their Random Cups of Helpfulness promotion. They'll be treating customers to the "complimentary drink of their choice" at specific locations found around Southern California. Find out where the shops are by watching the Helpful Honda Guys' social.
The coffee at Dunkin'? Fans have sung its praises for years. It has been a day-starter for many a java-ist, whether they're stopping by their local shop for a Munchkin or just a hot bev. Wouldn't it be great if you could buy a coffee and score a free coffee for pal? You can, on Sept. 29, when Dunkin' offers a buy-one-get-one special on Original Blend, Dark Roast, and Dunkin' Decaf.
