We all need a little motivation on a Monday — and a free cup of coffee could be just the nudge we need to get through the day.
Welcome to National Coffee Day. A made-up holiday? Absolutely! But it's also one that can help you kickstart the week while saving you some money in the process. And given what some coffeehouses charge these days, that's not necessarily an inconsiderable amount.
Some places are offering discounts. Others will give you a free pour. Looking for a place to grab a cup near you? There are all sorts of choices…
