April 26 is National Pretzel Day! Yes, pretzels have a day, as well they should. Nothing beats a warm, salty, soft pretzel, whether you dip it in cheese or eat it plain.

And, thanks to National Pretzel Day, you can enjoy many awesome freebies to help you celebrate. Here are the best places to find pretzels deals on April 26:

The Office, anyone?

Auntie Anne’s

This mall-favorite is the quintessential place to get a pretzel. I would know that smell anywhere, as would most Americans. And, thanks to National Pretzel Day, you can get a free original pretzel or free cinnamon sugar pretzel from April 26 to April 30.

One caveat: You have to download their “My Pretzel Perks” app. Small price to pay for a free pretzel, plus it means that you earn rewards for all your Auntie Anne’s purchases, and you get a free pretzel on your birthday.

Wetzel’s Pretzels

Get a free pretzel at Wetzel’s Pretzels on National Pretzel Day. If you download their app, you can get another free pretzel after you download, plus a free birthday pretzel. Better make some room on your phone for all these pretzel apps!

Pretzelmaker

Say “Happy Birthday” at select Pretzelmaker locations and you can get a pretzel for just $0.26. (The chain is celebrating their 26th birthday.)

Hannah’s Bretzel

Hannah’s Bretzel is offering a pretty cool deal for those of you who live in Chicago. Stop in between 5 and 7 p.m. and get a free hot melty sandwich (doesn’t that sound good?). Better hurry, as only the first 100 people get this freebie!

Ben’s Soft Pretzels

If you make at least a $1 donation to the Intrepid Fallen Heroes Fund, you can get a free soft pretzel at Ben’s Soft Pretzels. The charity supports the men and women of the armed forces and their families. Yummy pretzels AND helping a good cause? Win-win!

You can also enter to win FREE pretzels for a year!

World of Beer

World of Beer is offering 1/2 off pretzels that are bigger than your head at their tavern locations. Do you think you could finish one all on your own?
