This year, Tax Day falls on April 18. If you weren't aware of the three-day extension, congrats! You just got some more time. If you already knew about it, we still have some good news. While filing taxes doesn't exactly fill us with joy, companies and restaurants across the U.S. are offering Tax Day deals to take a little bit of the pain out of the occasion. From free burgers to desserts, these deals are there to say, "We know being an adult sucks. Now, here, have some tequila."
Plus, with all that free stuff, you can save even more money while you wait for your tax refund.
Click through to see our favorite deals — we'll be updating this list through April 18 as new freebies are announced!
Great American Cookies
Stop by participating locations and grab a free regular chocolate chip cookie — no purchase necessary.
Schlotzsky's
All locations will be offering a free small original sandwich with the purchase of chips and a drink on April 18.
Hard Rock Cafe
Customers can get a free burger and fries from participating locations, making this the best deal on this roundup — but there's a catch. To get it, you have to literally "sing for your supper."
Kona Ice
The shaved ice franchise's Tax Day motto is, "No taxation without relaxation," and they're handing out free Hawaiian ice to help make that possible.
Tony Roma's
Members of Tony Roma's email club (sign up here) will get a coupon on April 18 for a free dessert. The coupon is good through April 29, so you have plenty of time to take advantage of the offer.
Chili's
Making happy hour last all day, Chili's is serving its Presidente Margarita for $5 on April 18.
Staples
Drop by any Staples and shred up to five pounds of paper for free, no coupon required. Feel the sense of relief as you get rid of all those tax-related documents responsibly.
Outback
Treat yourself to a Bloomin' Onion or two on Tax Day. Sign up for Outback's email club or download the app to get the coupon.
Boston Market
In honor of that 1040 form that you so lovingly (or maybe begrudgingly) filled out, Boston Market is offering a meal deal for $10.40. For that, you get a half a chicken, two sides, cornbread, a cookie, and a drink.
Hyatt Regency Aruba Resort
And finally, if Tax Day left you wanting an escape, consider booking a room at the Hyatt Regency in Aruba. It's offering a "No Tax, Just Relax," package, which includes no room tax, a fifth night for free, and a complimentary cocktail.
