The fast-casual restaurant chain is offering two individual meals, each including a half rotisserie chicken with a choice of two home style sides and freshly baked cornbread, for $10.40 (as in IRS Form 1040). No coupon required.
Bruegger's Bagels
The bagel chain is reprising its “1040” special: 13 bagels and two tubs of cream cheese for $10.40 — about a $3.50 deduction. You have to download and print a coupon from Bruegger’s Facebook page or sign up for its email club by April 10. The deal is available April 12-15.
California Tortilla
Mention the secret password, "taxes shmaxes," when you place your order on Tax Day at the fast-casual Mexican chain and you’ll be rewarded with free queso and chips. A purchase is required. The cheese-intolerant can substitute salsa for queso.
Great American Cookies
Get a free chocolate chip cookie from participating Great American Cookies locations; no purchase or proof of filing (or even of an extension) required. First come, first serve.
Hard Rock Cafe
Musically talented (or low on inhibition)? You can take the stage at Hard Rock Cafes across America and earn a free dinner entrĂ©e by completing a whole song in front of the entire restaurant. The song is up to you — how about The Beatles’ “Tax Man”?
HydroMassage
HydroMassage is offering a free massage “experience” on its user-controlled massage beds. You have to download this coupon and call ahead for availability; calling ahead isn’t required if you use a bed at a Planet Fitness location but there might be a wait. The freebie is good April 14-18.
Office Depot
Office Depot is letting customers shred up to 5 pounds of tax records (or anything else) for free through April 29. You'll need this coupon.
Orange Leaf Frozen Yogurt
Customers can fill their cup with froyo and toppings for only $4.15 (as in April 15) via a coupon that will be posted on Orange Leaf's Facebook page. The chain says that amounts to approximately 50 percent off the regular price, depending on how much froyo and toppings a customer typically chooses.
Schlotzsky’s
If you buy a 32-ounce fountain drink and a bag of chips, the deli-sandwich chain will give you a small “The Original” sandwich for free. No coupon required. In case you’re not familiar with the Schlotzsky’s menu, the sandwich in question consists of ham, two kinds of salami, three types of cheese and an assortment of fixings.
Sonny’s BBQ
Once you’ve given the government its pound of flesh, head on over to Sonny’s BBQ to get half off on a plate of Sweet & Smokey or House Dry-Rubbed Ribs. It’s the Irresistible Ribs Special (IRS, get it?). No coupon is required, and the chain estimates this tax break is worth about $6.25 to you.
