Everywhere You Can Get Free and Super-Cheap Food for Valentine's Day

Whether you love it or think it's a "Hallmark holiday," are alone or spend it doling out a grotesque amount of PDA, there's pretty much only one thing everyone can agree on about Valentine's Day. The deals for free food are wonderful.

Loads of restaurants offer free and discounted food in celebration of Cupid's one day of work for the year. Here's our running list of major chains where you'll find deals:

Ibotta
The deal: The mobile shopping app wants to set you up with a free(-ish) glass of champagne. Starting at midnight on Valentine's Day, log into the app and tap the "Champagne Toast" button. Have a glass of champagne anywhere you'd like, snap a pic of the receipt, and the app will give you a free $5 coupon to spend on whatever you'd like. (You get $5 whether the glass is $2 or $30.)
When: February 14

Chuck E. Cheese
The deal: Drop into the mouse house and get a free brownie square. That's it. No other purchase required. It's just a brownie, but it's a free brownie.

Hooters
The deal: Bring a photo of your ex into Hooters, put it through a shredder (yeah, that's real), and you'll get 10 free boneless wings with an order of 10 wings. (There's also an option to "shred" the photo online and get a coupon for takeout.)
