    • Several businesses are offering discounts and free products on June 15. That’s especially true of restaurants, with BOGO deals and discounts.

    Dads love the adulation aimed their way on Father’s Day. The presents, though? Those sometimes fall short.

    So this year, instead of spending money on something superfluous, maybe show dad that you appreciate all he’s done in a budget-friendly way. (You know he appreciates a budget by how he walks around the house yelling about lights being left on.)

    While there aren’t quite as many giveaways and discounts being offered for dad’s special day as there were for mom’s, that doesn’t mean there aren’t any. No matter what your budget is, there’s likely a way to show your dad you love him without breaking the bank.

    Here are a few to keep an eye out for:

    Burger King

    If you’re a member of the company’s Royal Perks loyalty program, you can get a free Whopper with a purchase of one for full price.

    Shake Shack

    Prefer a different burger? Shake Shack is offering a buy-one-get-one Double Shackburger. Just use the promo code DADMODE on the Shack App or when ordering online. You can also use it when ordering at an in-Shack kiosk.

    IHOP

    Dad usually makes the pancakes, but maybe this year, you turn the tables. Order pickup or delivery at IHOP today and you’ll save 20% on your first online order. Use promo code IHOP20.

    Dave & Buster’s

    Loyalty members will get 50% off all food today.

    KFC

    KFC has not one, but two specials for Dad’s Day. For $20 you can get either a Fan-Favorites Box (which includes four pieces of KFC chicken, 12 KFC Nuggets, four biscuits, Fries, and four dipping sauces) or a Double Mash Meal (seven pieces of Original Recipe or Extra Crunchy chicken, two large Mashed Potatoes and Gravy, and four biscuits).

    Rita’s Italian Ice

    Things getting a bit hot where you live? Rita’s Italian Ice & Frozen Custard is offering app users a $1 Small Italian Ice with a $1 minimum purchase

    Fogo de Chao

    All dads who have a meal in-restaurant will receive $25 off Two Churrasco Experiences to be redeemed on a future visit. One lucky pop will also win their own at-home churrasco grill.
