According to the Philadelphia Business Journal and our fellow tweeters, Starbucks is giving coffee away to voters—all over the country! If you get a sticker confirming that you voted, bring it. But it appears that the honor system will be in effect for those of us (like Phillyist!) who were not given a sticker.
Hungry? Krispy Kreme will be giving patriotic donuts away to the nation's voters, as they report on their web site. The star-shaped, red-white-and-blue donut will put stars in your eyes and goodness in your belly. We think it's safe to call that a bipartisan compromise. They do, however, appear to be planning on adhering more closely to the "stickered voter" eligibility criterion. Which, as we mentioned parenthetically above, may disqualify us from said donut.
But we're not done yet! We've covered breakfast, but no election day is complete without dessert. Ben & Jerry's will be giving away free scoops between 5pm and 8pm. The web site doesn't mention your sticker outright, so we're going to try to get our scoop.
Keep in mind that these offers all mention "participating locations." We're hoping that while we participate in the presidential election, they'll all participate in giving us free stuff.
