free things!

Happy Friday!

If the previous post about edible insects didn't get your stomach growling, here are some free things to put in your belly today.

It's free Slurpee day at 7-Eleven. Read more here. Is there even a 7-Eleven in Columbus? Not so sure about that one. I tried finding a list using this store locator, but it pretty much just pulled up a blank map.

The next free treat takes a little more work. Today, Chick-fil-A restaurants will give a free meal to anyone dressed as a cow. But it has to be a head-to-toe effort. Wear just a cow T-shirt or accessory and you'll get a free entree. See the full story here.

Need some extra time to get all this stuff? See these rules for calling in sick to work. My favorite: "Don't use 'feminine problems' as an excuse — especially if you're not a woman."
