Every four years we are given a fun leap year! The real reason we get a leap year is because it takes Earth a little longer to orbit the sun. In a typical year, it completes its journey in 365 days, but during a leap year, it requires 366 days – hence the extra day in the shortest month of the year – February 29.
To honor the leap day, brands release deals only valid for February 29 and we've rounded up the best food deals to not miss out on.

Guac is no longer extra, at least on Leap Day! If you dine at Chipotle on February 29, you can request FREE guacamole with your order. You'll have to be a Chipotle Rewards member to redeem the offer along with the code "EXTRA24" on the app.
