Borders: 25% off toys and games.
Father's Day is getting pretty close now — Sunday, June 19 — but Borders can help with their 25% off coupon. History and military buff dads can enjoy a game of Risk; word nerd dads will appreciate Scrabble or Bananagrams; and logical math dads can settle in with a nice, boring sudoku or an electronic blackjack game.
Too bad you can't just send them all flowers like you can on Mother's Day, right?

Borders: 30% off coupon.
Father's Day is coming up on Sunday, June 19, and Borders conveniently has a 30% off coupon this week. What dad wouldn't like some armchair reading, a movie or TV series, or some new music to remind him he's still relevant?
I like to get my dad financial magazines, so he can enjoy a year's worth of tips on lecturing me about saving money and spending responsibly. It's the gift that keeps on giving.

IKEA: Free breakfast for dads on Father's Day, June 19.
IKEA offered free breakfast for mom on Mother's Day, so it's only fair that they're kicking down free breakfast for dads on Father's Day, June 19. Thrifty dads will enjoy fluffy scrambled eggs served with a side of hash browns, scrumptious bacon, plus a hot cup of coffee.
One free dad per table, so plan your checkout-line groupings accordingly.

Seattle: Free SAM admission for dads on Father's Day.
SAM just announced on their Facebook page that dads get free admission to the Seattle Art Museum on Father's Day, June 20!
I doubt they'll insist that you whip out your Dad ID, so as long as you're a dude and you look old enough to have fathered offspring, you're probably good to go. It would certainly help if you could grab a kid off the street and hold their hand in the ticket line, though.

Free Whataburger breakfast on a bun, June 22.
Today must be my day for freebies that aren't located in my state... here's another one, this time for a free "breakfast on a bun" at Whataburger on June 22 from 7 to 10 a.m. Furthermore, I'm told that if you’re looking for a way to spice up your morning, you may try it Ranchero Style with jalapenos and picante sauce for free.
Find a store near you, wake your dad up at 7 am, and haul him off to claim his free breakfast sandwich. He'll be ever so glad.

Father's Day: Free bowl of noodles at Noodles & Co Fri-Sun.
I've never heard of Noodles & Company, which is a shame, because they want to give my dad free noodles, soup, or salad, June 18-20. It says "bring Dad in," but it doesn't seem to require any purchase in order to get your free dad-noodles.
Looks like it's a mix of Asian, Italian, and American noodle dishes, plus soups and salads, in a kind of Boston-Market-esque casual setting. Find a location here and get noodlin'.

Borders: 40% off one item, 40% off DVD sets.
Borders is really cranking out the coupons this week. Here's yet another 40% off one item coupon, as well as a coupon for 40% off all DVD boxed sets.
Both are good through June 17, so whether your dad is a fancy-pants book reader or just prefers vegging on the couch with a good DVD or ten, Borders has just the right thing for Father's Day.

Amazon: Father's Day $5 subscriptions.
Amazon doesn't miss a trick when it comes to promoting their cheap magazine subscriptions, and their latest theme is, of course, Father's Day. If you can't decide what to get your dear old dad, consider one of these money-saving, golfing-and-fishing, lawn-mowing selections.
I think Popular Science for $5 sounds like a pretty good choice, but then, I don't know your dad's life. For all I know, he'd rather have Country Cottages Monthly or Cat Fancy. Which, it turns out, is only $8 after an extra discount, so maybe you should just go with that one after all!
(AND it looks like there's a whole list of subscriptions with an extra $5 or $10 off, so check it out if you're in need of some summer beach reading.)

Borders: 40% off one item.
Just in time for your dad-n-grad gift-buying needs... Borders has pumped out one more 40% off coupon! This one's good through June 14, just like the 25% off your entire purchase coupon, so you'll have to decide which one offers you the best total savings, depending on what you're buying. You learned how to do that in school, right, grads?

Borders: 25% off entire purchase.
Yep, it's yet another Borders coupon, but this one is a bit different - it's for your total purchase, not just for one item. 25% off your entire purchase, to be exact. The coupon is good through June 14, and I'm sure I don't need to mention that Father's Day is just around the corner. Time to show all those dads how well you absorbed all their advice about thriftiness and savings!

Borders: Buy 2 $25 gift cards, get a $10 gift card free.
It's June, and you know what that means... in addition to all the regular b-days or anniversaries you might be celebrating, there's also Father's Day (June 20) and lots of graduations. Borders wants to help you out with a bit of a discount on its gift cards: buy two $25 gift cards and get a $10 one free.
This really opens up the possibilities. You could give one to your dad, one to a grad, and keep the $10 one to blow on yourself. You could use the $10 to buy gift-card holders AND a cupcake-scented pen to sign them with. Or, if you have a bunch of young relatives graduating this year, give the $10 card to the one you like least and call it a life lesson. They'll thank you someday.

Free TCBY for Dad on June 21.
Well, the Father's Day freebies are slowly piling up... now TCBY is jumping into the fray by offering a free cup or cone to dads on Sunday, June 21. At participating locations only, of course, so you may want to check before dropping by for a treat. Your dad would approve of calling ahead to make sure, anyway - it's the responsible thing to do.
BOGO Bath & Body Works for dads and dudes.
Just in time for Father's Day, Bath & Body Works is having a BOGO sale on some of their manly bath products. You can also order an online gift card and have it sent right! to! their! inbox!, so in case you've been procrastinating on that Father's Day gift, there's still time to assure the father figure in your life that he could smell better.

Aching for a Moons Over My Hammy? Your wish is granted: use this coupon for a free meal when you buy one meal and two drinks. It's good 7 days a week from 5:00 am to 11:00 am, so maybe this Father's Day, you should turn the tables on your dad by forcing him out of bed early "to build character" and showing him how much you were listening to all his practical, money-saving advice. He'll thank you for it eventually... if you give him both coffees.
