Tuesday May 8th is National Teacher Appreciation Day, and some restaurants and retailers are offering “freebies” and deals to you if you happen to be a teacher, educator or administrator. There are quite a few online, and many go through the entire week… but here are a few of the standouts and ones you might be able to get locally if the stores here in Topeka and surrounding area are participating:

Apple Store for Education: Get discounted rates on Mac, Ipad, and other Apple accessories.

Barnes & Noble: Get 20 percent off the publisher’s price for books purchased for classroom use, and 25 percent off the publisher’s price for certain “Educator Appreciation” days.

Chick-fil-A: Teachers, educators and administrators can get a free Chick-fil-A sandwich on Tuesday from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. at participating Chick-fil-A restaurants. Teacher ID required.

JoAnn Fabric: Get a 15 percent discount both in-store and online.

Chipotle: BOGO on burritos, bowls, salads or tacos on Teachers’ Day from 3 p.m. to close.
