Wendy's 12 Days Of Holiday Discounts Are Packed Full Of Freebies

If you're more of a fast food fan than a chocolate nut, forget the advent calendar and look to Wendy's to get your seasonal kicks. The burger chain recently has its 2023 promotion of 12 Days of Holiday Offers line-up, starting on December 9 and continuing through December 20. Featuring a rotating collection of free and half-price deals, diners can expect beloved items like the Frosty and cult-favorite Wendy's chili to be offered for free with any other regular purchase.  

Wendy's Rewards members can check out the full list of deals on the official app. For the most money-conscious customers, the best deals are on December 9, with a free Dave's single hamburger accompanying any purchase, and December 14, when a crispy chicken sandwich is the free item of choice. If you're a sweets fan, keep an eye out for December 16 and 20, when a small Frosty and four French toast sticks respectively are up for grabs. Meanwhile, those who only brake for breakfast can head to Wendy's on December 10 for a free Breakfast Baconator giveaway, December 11 for a small Frosty Cream Cold Brew with any purchase, and December 13 for a free croissant breakfast sandwich. 

There are plenty of other fast-food chains that have jumped on the holiday deal bandwagon. Burger King has unveiled an entire month's worth of bargains. Every Wednesday, the Whopper will be marked down to $3, while every Sunday, every online order that surpasses $5 comes with free delivery. Plus, each Friday, the chain will be offering a free food item with any $1 purchase. 

At McDonald's, beyond its limited edition holiday pie and its iconic reissue of McNugget Buddies toys, app users can enjoy the Free Fries Friday deal through December 31. If donuts or queso-loaded hash browns are more your speed, you can also turn to Dunkin for a sweet freebie. Dunkin Rewards members can enjoy its Free Donut Wednesday through the end of December, which promises a free donut with a drink purchase. If you're looking to save a little extra this holiday season, be sure to hit up these spots for your fast food favorites on a smaller dollar.
