So far, we’ve collected freebies for Labor
Day on Sept. 2, International Literacy Day and Grandparents Day on Sept.

Appreciation Day on the 22 (I forgot), Dog in Politics Day on the 23,
(they’re on to something there) and Ask a Stupid Question Day on the 28(who
comes up with these?).
Just ahead on October 2 is a freebie from Panda Express.
Today, our cups runneth over. It’s National Coffee Day.
No hoops or gimmicks. Just go to Kwik Trip and get a FREE
12 oz Karuba Coffee. The lack of gimmicks might also be why the company is
continually ranked as a top place to work in surveys.
