If you have a Spicy Pickle in your area, they are now offering a VIP Club. When you sign up, your welcome email will contain a coupon for a free entree of your choice with the purchase of a regular size fountain drink.
This is a great deal that I wanted to share with everyone.

Cafe Adobe (several locations in the Houston area) has a cupon on their website for a free appetizer (up to $8 value.) I see no reason why you can't print several and use one every time you go! They have good food and lots of options as well :).
