While some think Friday the 13th is bad luck, it’s far from it if you’re a fan of free food. This week, Friday happens to be National French Fry Day, which means one thing: Free fries or deals on fries at participating restaurant chains. In addition, Sunday July 15, is National Ice Cream Day, and lots of deals are available to chill your sweet tooth.

Here’s a list of chains offering up the deep-fried treat for a sweet deal in Anne Arundel County:

IHOP now has unlimited fries with any burger combo ($6.99 and up) for a limited time only, valid for dine-in only (not valid for online or IHOP’N Go orders) at area IHOP sites.

McDonald’s is offering a free medium order of fries with any purchase (minimum $1) on the McDonald’s app. The deal is good any Friday, not just Friday the 13th. McD app download and registration required.

Red Robin offers bottomless steak fries with a handful of its $6.99 burgers.

Carl’s Jr.: Sign up for emails, and get a coupon for a free small fries and beverage with the purchase of a $6 burger for joining the list.
