Do you want more?
There are still a lot of restaurants and fast-food chains that offer free food, but I chose not to include them on the list because they will only give you the treats once you earned a certain number of points. Some of these are Auntie Anne’s, Chick-fil-A, Quiznos, Red Lobster, Taco Bell, and Wendy’s.
