All the Free and Super-Cheap Food You Can Get in December



The holiday season is bringing a boatload of big, delicious meals and grown-up advent calendars. But those won't be the only moments you'll get to load up on good, comforting food before you cut it out in the new year. 
Throughout December, local restaurants and big chains alike are offering free food and good deals on grub, especially on "food holidays" and other occasions such as Cyber Monday, National Cookie Day, and Christmas. If you know where to look, you can eat like royalty on the cheap all throughout the month. Fortunately, we're keeping tabs on everything going down. You'll find worthy offers from places like White Castle, Pizza Hut, Hungry Howie's, Applebee's, Domino's, and loads of others.
We've mined the depths of the world of food deals to present the best of the best as the deals are announced. Check back often (this list is updated regularly -- almost daily!) to see the expected and the unexpected meals you should be getting after every day this month.
