You Can Get Free Cheap Food for Leap Day Almost Anywhere
It happens only once in a blue moon. It happens even less frequently than once in a blue moon. It's Leap Day, the once-every-four-year event that ensures our calendars are correctly aligned with the Earth's orbit around the sun.
People born on February 29 rarely get to celebrate a real birthday because it only happens once every four years. This year, though, is a moment to rejoice. In addition to all of the other free food available on your birthday, leaplings are receiving incredible deals and freebies from eateries across the country. (There's also plenty for folks who weren't born on February 29.) Enjoy your annual bonus day with discounts from Olive Garden, Chili's, and other restaurants.
Here are the finest leap day meal deals available.
