National Taco Day Deals In Maryland

Thursday is National Taco Day and you know what that means — great deals and freebies on tacos. That’s right. Lettuce, tomato, beef, sour cream and guacamole all inside a flour (or corn) tortilla never tasted so good. Among the major national retailers offering deals are Taco Bell, Qdoba, Moe’s Southwest Grill, California Tortilla, Del Taco and Chuy’s.

Many chains are offering buy-one-get-one-free deals, but some are simply giving away tacos for free or for no more than $1. One restaurant in California is giving away t-shirts that will result in free tacos for a whole year.

If you’re feeling particularly adventurous, you can head over to Cold Stone Creamery and buy Waffle Tacos (yes, really) on Thursday only.

Here’s the complete list of restaurants offering deals as well as details about how you can score discounted tacos.
