It’s National Splurge Day — And BOGO Week Just Started at Five Major Chains

Healthy Fact of the Day

BOGO Week is a great opportunity to share a meal rather than eat double — splitting the second item with someone means you get the deal without doubling your calorie intake. Of the five options this week, the Tropical Smoothie Cafe BOGO is the most nutritionally sound choice, since smoothies made with real fruit provide natural vitamins and fiber. The Subway BOGO on a 6-inch sub is another smart pick — load it up with vegetables and choose a lean protein like turkey to keep the meal balanced. If you're hitting multiple chains this week, spacing them out across the full seven days rather than stacking them in one or two days is a practical way to enjoy the savings without overdoing it.

The universe is giving you permission today. Take it.

June 18 is National Splurge Day — the one day a year dedicated entirely to treating yourself without guilt. And in 2026, it lands on the exact same day that BOGO Week kicks off at five major fast food chains simultaneously. Five chains, five buy-one-get-one deals, running June 18 through June 24, all available through their respective apps.

There has never been a better-timed excuse to eat for half price.

The Five BOGO Week Deals (June 18–24)

All five deals run through Sunday, June 24, through each chain’s respective app. Download whichever apps you don’t have yet — membership is free at all five — and check the Offers or Deals tab to activate.

Burger King — BOGO Whopper Jr. Buy one Whopper Jr., get one free through the BK app. The Whopper Jr. is the smaller, more manageable sibling of the classic Whopper — same flame-grilled beef, same toppings, just in a more practical size for a lunch or lighter dinner.

Popeyes — BOGO 4-Piece Bone-In Chicken or Chicken Sandwich Your choice of four pieces of bone-in chicken or a Popeyes Chicken Sandwich, buy one get one free through the Popeyes app. This is one of the stronger BOGO deals of the week given how well-regarded the Popeyes sandwich has been since its debut — getting two for the price of one is a genuine win.

Subway — BOGO 6-Inch Sub (Tuna, Turkey, or Meatball) Buy one 6-inch Tuna, Turkey, or Meatball Marinara sub and get a second one free through the Subway app. Three protein options gives this deal some flexibility — one for you, one for a friend, different flavors.

Tropical Smoothie Cafe — BOGO Top Five Smoothies Buy one of Tropical Smoothie’s top five smoothies, get a second one free through the app. A strong deal for the health-conscious crowd, and a natural complement to the summer heat that’s arrived in most of the country this week.

Wendy’s — BOGO Spicy Chicken Sandwich Buy one Spicy Chicken Sandwich, get one free through the Wendy’s app. Wendy’s Spicy Chicken has its own devoted fan base — two for the price of one is an easy yes.

Why This Week Is Worth Paying Attention To

Fast food BOGO deals happen regularly, but five major chains running simultaneous BOGOs in the same week is unusual — and it’s timed perfectly to coincide with National Splurge Day, Father’s Day weekend prep, and the FIFA World Cup group stage, which is in full swing this week.

It’s worth noting that the week after this one — June 25 through July 1 — brings another wave of deals called Freebie Week, featuring KFC, Taco Bell, The Cheesecake Factory, Wingstop, and Zaxby’s. Two consecutive weeks of major chain promotions make late June one of the best stretches of the year for value-conscious fast food ordering.

Tips for Getting the Most Out of BOGO Week

A few practical notes before you head out:

  • Download the apps now — all five deals require the respective chain’s app. If you wait until you’re in the parking lot, you might run into sign-up delays.
  • Share the second item — BOGOs are best used when you bring a friend or family member along. It’s genuinely half-price dining for two.
  • Stack with existing loyalty points — most of these apps also have points programs. Using the BOGO deal while earning points means double value in the long run.
  • Check your nearest locations — participating restaurant availability varies, especially for Tropical Smoothie and Popeyes which have more regional footprints than the other three.

The Bottom Line

National Splurge Day and BOGO Week are happening simultaneously today — and the combination is as good as it sounds. Five chains are running buy-one-get-one deals now through June 24, all through their respective apps: Burger King (Whopper Jr.), Popeyes (4-piece chicken or chicken sandwich), Subway (6-inch sub), Tropical Smoothie Cafe (top five smoothies), and Wendy’s (Spicy Chicken Sandwich). Download the apps, activate the offers, and eat for half price all week.

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

The Last Corn: How to Honor Summer’s Most Fleeting Vegetable

Fresh sweet corn is a meaningful source of lutein and zeaxanthin — carotenoid antioxidants that accumulate specifically in the retina and that research consistently associates with reduced risk of age-related macular degeneration and cataracts. These compounds are fat-soluble, meaning that eating corn with butter significantly increases their absorption compared to eating it plain. The specific sweetness of peak-season corn also reflects a higher sugar content and a correspondingly higher concentration of the water-soluble vitamins and phytonutrients that develop during the full ripening process — making the peak-season local ear nutritionally superior to its commercially processed alternative.

McDonald’s New Fall Coffee Lineup Tastes Like Apple Pie in a Cup

Seasonal specialty coffees can pack in as much sugar and calories as a dessert, largely due to flavored syrups and whipped toppings. If you want the seasonal flavor without the full sugar load, ask for the syrup in reduced pumps, skip the whipped cream topping, or size down to a small. Choosing an iced coffee or latte over a blended frappe-style drink will also typically cut calories, fat, and sugar significantly while still giving you that same seasonal flavor.
