Coffee shops are offering up deals on September 29 in honor of National Coffee Day.

If you're like us and are enslaved by that morning cup of joe, you look forward to saving a couple of bucks on that daily fix once National Coffee Day arrives.

On September 29, we expect a selection of our favorite stores will take advantage of the day to promote fair trade brews and offer discounted or free cups of the good stuff.

Krispy Kreme, Dunkin' Donuts Give Free Java... But Not Starbucks

For two years running, Krispy Kreme has offered a completely free small cup of coffee on the holiday. Last year, it even threw a free Original Glazed donut into the mix. Dunkin' Donuts didn't have anything sweet to offer, but over the last few years it has given away a medium cup of coffee for those who like a larger caffeine fix.

We've also seen freebie offers from McDonald's, Wawa, and Coffee Culture Cafe in the past, so we'll be looking to these stores to replicate their National Coffee Day generosity again this year.

Conspicuously absent from the list? Starbucks. The coffee mega-chain used National Coffee Day last year to kick off a tree-planting initiative.

No matter what specific deals we see on September 29, National Coffee Day is sure to bring with it a host of freebies and discounts on dine-in and takeout cups. Be sure to bookmark this page and check back closer to the holiday, as we'll be adding specific details and locations once the freebies start rolling in.
