Tomorrow, Feb. 5th, is National Pancake Day. To
celebrate the holiday, as well as to raise awareness for Children’s Miracle
Network Hospitals and other local charities, IHOP will be giving away a free
short stack of buttermilk pancakes to interested customers. In exchange, they
request you leave a donation. Since they began celebrating National Pancake Day
this way in 2006, IHOP has raised over $10 million dollars.
Okay, so the pancakes aren’t technically free, because as a
rule, I don’t recommend going to a fundraising event and not donating anything.
However, I do consider supporting this a frugal move, as you get a double bang
for your buck…you get a meal out, and you can feel good about it since whatever
you pay for said meal is all going towards charity.
