Free doughnuts — June 2
June 2 is National Donut Day. The delicious holiday dates back to 1917, when Salvation Army volunteers called “Donut Lassies” made the tasty treats for soldiers on the front lines during World War I.
In celebration, LaMar’s Donuts & Coffee has partnered with the Salvation Army to host an annual fundraising event, and the doughnut chain is giving out a free doughnut to everyone who visits a LaMar’s location.
Dunkin Donuts is also celebrating the big day by giving away gratis doughnuts to everyone who purchases a beverage.
Free fishing days — various states
Attention aspiring anglers: Want to try your hand at fishing without having to pay for a license? You may be in luck.
More than three dozen states offer Free Fishing Days — or even full weekends — in June. See when you can sample the popular sport this month in your state.
Free Planet Fitness membership for teens — through Aug. 31
Does your high school student want to get into shape this summer? Sign them up for Planet Fitness’ High School Summer Pass membership.
The membership allows students ages 14 through 19 to work out at any of the club’s 2,200-plus locations across the country through August at no cost. Plus, there’s even a chance for them to win a scholarship and grant money for their school. Learn more.
Free audiobooks — ongoing
Listening to audiobooks can be a wonderful alternative to traditional reading, especially if your current situation doesn’t easily lend itself to flipping through pages — such as when you’re driving to work.
If you sign up for a 30-day Audible trial, you can enjoy one credit valid toward “any premium selection titles you like — yours to keep.” Plus, Amazon Prime members will enjoy an extra credit.
We’ve also rounded up more places to find free audiobooks in “10 Places You Can Find Free Audiobooks.”
