COVID-19 vaccine freebies and deals you can get today

Initially when the vaccine became available, finding an appointment was like winning the lottery. Whether you stayed up until midnight to book an appointment or drove extensive miles to get one, the COVID-19 vaccines are more readily available and so many companies are rewarding you for getting it! That pretty, small vaccine card is your passport to all freebies and deals and here is a list of all the free food and deals you can now get.

First, keep that vaccination card in mint condition…

Office Depot

White Castle

Remember those adorable mini dessert on a stick that White Castle released for their 100th birthday this year? Well, between now and May 31, White Castle is giving away a FREE dessert on a stick to anyone who received the vaccine.

You can pick one of any of the following flavors: Gooey Buttercake, Fudge Dipped Brownie, Fudge Dipped Cheesecake or Birthday Cake.

And in case you need a ride to get the vaccine, both Lyft and Uber have partnered with President Biden’s Administration to offer free or discounted rides.

Update: Uber wants to support the Biden Administration’s goal “70 percent of the US population to be fully vaccinated by July 4.” To help remove transportation barriers, Uber has committed to providing free rides to app users who are traveling to get vaccinated. 

According to Uber, “four free rides (up to $25 off each)” will be available via the app. These free rides will be available through July 4, 2021. More information can be found in the vaccine tab on the Uber app. 

This announcement furthers Uber’s commitment to making health, safety and convenience a priority for its users and the company. As seen in its recent initiatives, the brand understands that the road to recovery cannot be taken alone.  (updates provided by Cristine Struble)
