Carly Hart
From free cupcakes and ice cream to restaurant discounts, there is a wide array of Tax Day freebies and food discounts to be had on April 15. Who's giving out the best Tax Day freebies or discounts designed to give you most relief on April 15?

Tax Day Freebies:

MaggieMoo's is giving out free samples of its new MaggieMia's ice cream pizza between the hours of 3 P.M. and 7 P.M. at participating locations. Celebrate filing your taxes by visiting a MaggieMoos and snagging this ice cream freebie. Please note: this is limited to one per customer, while supplies last. Which stores are participating? Click here to find a participating MaggieMoo's near you.

Cinnabon knows that Tax Day bites, so they are giving customers a free bite to eat on April 15. From 6 P.M. to 8 P.M. at participating Cinnabons (mall locations), cupcake lovers can stop by Cinnabon to get free bite sized cupcakes. One offer per guest, but good to keep in mind if you are in the mall doing a little retail therapy shopping on Tax Day to forget how much you owe Uncle Sam.

In the mood for Mexican? Taco Del Mar is offering a free taco on Tax Day to help take the bite out of your tax bill. Sign up to receive a coupon for a free taco redeemable on April 15.

Tax Day Food Discounts:

Savvy shoppers should head to the grocery store on April 15 since Whole Foods will not be charging customers sales tax on purchases made on Tax Day. For some customers, this could be a nice bit of savings since tax rates vary across the country. Check with your local Whole Foods store to be sure that they are participating.

Want a discount on food? Try P.F. Chang's. This chain is offering 15% off food, dine-in or take out, on April 15. The 15% discount is not available on Happy Hour specials or alcoholic beverages. IHOP lets kids eat free every night in April between the hours of 4 P.M. and 10 P.M., so take your tax deductions (age 12 and under) out to dinner for free on April 15 or any other night in April.

Subway customers in select markets in North Carolina and Virginia (Greenville, Greensboro, Wilmington, Raleigh, Richmond, and Norfolk) can save some bucks on subs at Subway during their Tax Day customer appreciation day. On Thursday, April 15 only, sub lovers in those markets can avail themselves of a buy one foot long, get one free deal.
