Since most of you seem to enjoy caffeine [0], I thought I'd let you know that there are THREE days this month (that's right, three!) when you can get a cuppa for free.

The first is today ( March 8 ) at participating McDonald's. They're handing out free cups of coffee to anyone who asks for it. This is because they recently beat out Starbucks [0] in a taste test. On a related note, I just read that they're planning on expanding espresso drinks nationally [1].

The second is next Thursday ( March 15 ) - Starbucks is promoting its second annual "coffee break" by pouring free 12oz cups of brewed coffee between 10am - noon.

The last one is the following Wednesday ( March 21 ) - Dunkin' Donuts celebrates the first day of spring with a free 16oz cup of iced coffee.

So mark your calendars folks, free caffeine for all!

Thanks to our pals at Serious Eats [2] for pointing us to these dates.
