National coffee day is Saturday, September 29th. As such, several big chains are offering customers free coffee .

McDonald’s is offering cups Friday and Saturday on the east coast but check the site to make sure it’s available near you.

Krispy Kreme is participating on Saturday.

7-Eleven stores will be dispensing large free 20-ounce cups from 6 a.m. to 10 a.m. Friday, Sept. 28. Another promotion has customers choosing between Obama and Romney coffee cups as a kind of fun presidential election poll. Location info: www.7-eleven.com. I will pr0bably pick an Obama cup but would consider a 3rd party cup or possibly Cthulhu.
