Whether your seasonal affective disorder has kicked in, or you’re feeling the pressure of the holiday season, chances are you could use some comfort food. And if you’ve already gone over your yearly budget, it would be even better if that food was available at a discount, or perhaps even for free.

Fortunately, the folks at Wendy’s understand that, and the fast food chain is offering the following deals to see you through the rest of 2022. Here’s what to know.

How to get a free Frosty every day next year

We’ve previously written about Wendy’s Frosty Tags, and now they’re available for purchase once again. As a recap, they cost $2, and will get you one free Jr. Frosty with any purchase. Though you’re limited to one free Frosty per visit, you can use the tag every day in 2023.

How to get free chili

Many of these deals—including this one—are only redeemable via the Wendy’s app, so if you haven’t already downloaded it, and want to take advantage of the free food, you should probably do that now.

Then you can get one small order of chili for free with any in-app purchase. The offer refreshes weekly, so if you redeem it today, and then again on the 24th and 31st, you can get three free orders of chili before the end of the year.

How to get free bacon sandwiches

To celebrate National Bacon Day on December 30, participating Wendy’s locations are giving away one free junior bacon cheeseburger with any in-app purchase, as well as a free Breakfast Baconator with any in-app purchase the following morning (12/31). This deal isn’t valid for delivery orders placed outside of the Wendy’s app.
