National Pie Day (not to be confused with National Pi Day) is celebrated annually on January 23. Unlike most national days, National Pie Day isn’t meant to honor a historic event. Instead, National Pie Day was created for one simple reason – to enjoy pie in all its greatness.

According to the National Days Calendar, National Pie Day was created by the American Pie Council, which was founded in 1986 to commemorate Crisco’s 75th anniversary of “serving foods to families everywhere.”

Celebrate National Pie Day with a giant slice of discounted goodness. Here’s 10 places offering pie specials, deals, and freebies.

Bakers Square

Eat as much pie as you possibly can on National Pie Day, take one day to rest, then go back for seconds on Free Pie Wednesday at Bakers Square. From 10:30 a.m. to close, customers will get a free slice of pie with the purchase of any menu item.

From Jan. 20 – Jan. 23, Bakers Square is offering a $2 discount on any whole pie.
