The Best Labor Day Food Deals You Don’t Want To Miss This Weekend 

Labor Day signals more than just the end of summer, but also brings about discounted treats and meals you don’t want to miss out on. This weekend is also a great time to cash in on freebies and limited-time offers if you’re looking to not only save some money but also treat yourself to some delicious meals. If you’re planning to spend time with family this long weekend, kick back with friends, or just want a sweet treat, these restaurants and fast food eateries have you covered. 

If you’re looking to stay on top of the Labor Day food deals this weekend, it’s worth signing up for apps and rewards programs ahead of time if you have a feel for what you might buy. Try and be mindful of promo codes since some of the time they only apply to mobile orders or online orders. Most importantly, it doesn’t hurt to double-check which locations are participating in offers. I think we’d all hate to get there and then have to leave empty-handed.

Krispy Kreme

This long weekend, you won’t want to miss out on Krispy Kreme’s discounted doughnuts. During this time, customers who buy a dozen doughnuts at the regular price can get a dozen original glazed for only $2. To get your hands on this deal, you can visit the shop, pick up at participating locations, or place an order through the Krispy Kreme website or app. 

7 Eleven & Speedway

This Labor Day, you might want to keep an eye out for 7-Eleven and Speedway. If you’re in the mood for a treat, 7-Eleven and Speedway are having $2 snack deals where loyalty members can find Body Armor and Slim Jim Sticks for only $2. This is a great way to stay hydrated and fueled during these last few remaining summer days, with the offer ending September 4. The offers get even better with 7NOW delivery, offering $20 off deliveries using code SLURPEE. This offer is available on September 1 for any 7NOW order that is $30 or more. 7 Eleven Gold Pass members are able to get free delivery and 7 free drinks per month (Big Gulp, Slurpee, or coffee). At the Speedy Cafe, you can also get whole subs for only $5 on Labor Day Weekend. 

Burger King

Burger King Royal Perks members can indulge in BOGO Whoppers this September 1. In order to receive this offer, members can visit locations, order online, or on the app with a 6-digit rewards code. One BOGO per account. 

Dominos

This Labor Day, Domino’s is offering customers to build their own pizza for $9.99. Customers are able to choose their crust and up to 7 toppings (excluding specialty pizzas and XL sizing). You can order in the app or at Dominos.com

Peet’s Coffee

Peet’s Cold Brew pass is the perfect way to start fall. Starting September 1, get one cold brew per day for 30 days for just $30. This offer is available to Peetnik Rewards members.

Shake Shack

Try a free summer BBQ burger or chicken when you use code SUMMER on any $10 + order. This offer ends September 1. 

Perkins

Celebrate this weekend with a classic combo of burger, fries, and pie for only $9.99. I don’t know about you, but this meal and a sweet treat sound like a great way to ring in the weekend.

Red Lobster

If you’re looking for some seafood that feels like a vacation (but on your plate), Red Lobster’s Garlic Shrimp Scampi served with one side for $19.99 is definitely an option to consider.

Round Table Pizza

If you’re having a get-together with friends or family, keep in mind that from August 28 to September 1, you can enjoy 15% off at Round Table Pizza. Use code RTP978 for dine-in, delivery, or carryout.
