Leap Day Freebies And Deals (Updated for 2024)

Leap Day only comes around once every four years, so of course, there are going to be a bunch of Leap Day Freebies and Deals to celebrate from stores like Build-A-Bear and Wendy’s. Don’t miss them or you’ll have to wait another four years for them to come back around.

For more ways to save, check out all of our frugal posts.

The calendar opened to the 29th, which says Leap Day! on it, and the words "Leap Day Deals And Freebies" digitally written on top.

Companies and consumers love any type of gimmicky deal, so of course, everyone is jumping on Leap Day Deals. Most involve a 29, since Leap Day is February 29th, but some are just regular freebies in honor of the holiday.

There are deals for everyone and others for people with a Leap Day birthday — because those people have to wait four years in order to celebrate their birthday on their actual birthday day.

The list is split into two categories, one for everyone and one for those leap day babies, so you can easily find the deals that pertain to you.

And, we limited these to national or large regional chain restaurants. Your local restaurants and shops may be offering their own deals for Leap Day, but it would make this list too long and overwhelming to include them all.

A calendar open to June 2023 with the words "Top 20+ National Days For Freebies And Deals" digitally written on top.
