October is National Pizza Month!

October is National Pizza Month, so I thought I’d share with y’all some of our favorite pizza stuff: recipes, pizza swag, and even ways to save money on ordering pizza.

Goodness knows we have pizza about once a week (Friday take-out night is usually pizza), so I have all kinds of tips and tricks.

If you are new to making your own pizza at home, here is a list of my must-haves, including ingredients and kitchen tools!

Need a break from cooking and want to order takeout? Here are a few suggestions for saving money and/or earning cash back on your next pizza night:

  • Domino’s has its Piece of the Pie rewards club. For every $10 spent, you earn 10 points; once you reach 60 points, you’ll earn a free pizza. More details can be found here.
  • If Pizza Hut is more your style, they have Hut Rewards. Earn 2 points for every $1 you spend. They have several different rewards, depending on point values. From breadsticks (75 points)  to a Large pizza (300 points), there is something for everyone.
  • Little Caesar’s has an app with various deals, and they also have a merch shop with all sorts of cool stuff. They are the Official Pizza of the NFL; with Football season coming to a close soon, there may be some playoff deals afoot.
  • GrubHub: One of the perks of Amazon Prime is that you get a free subscription to GrubHub+ with $0 delivery fees on orders over $12 and reduced service fees.
  • 7-Eleven : Seriously- their app has all sorts of deals on pizza, both by the slice and whole pizzas.  Get up to $15 in value when you download the 7-Eleven app, including 1,800 points, 11¢/gal off fuel, & more.

10/6/2026- National Taco Day Freebies and Deals

Did you know that National Taco Day is 10/6/26? To celebrate, there are a lot of really good freebies and deals to take advantage of.

I included deals that are available in Southern California, if I’ve missed any, please feel free to leave them in the comments.

Del Taco On Tuesday, October 6th, Del Taco is celebrating National Taco Day with 60¢ Snack Tacos (limit five per offer). They have Taco Deals all month long!

Jack in the Box: Jack in the Box app users get two free tacos with a minimum $1 order on October 6.

Rubio’s Coastal Grill: Rewards members can get a free taco with any purchase on Oct. 6.  rubios.com.

Taco Bell: The fast-food giant is partnering with Duolingo for its Global Taco Day promotion, featuring Duo, the language platform’s owl mascot. A new Duo Habanero Sauce in multilingual packets will be included in any Doritos Locos Tacos order. Rewards members can get one free month of Duolingo through the Taco Bell app Oct. 1-6, and they can win one of 1,000 Duo plushies in Taco Bell’s Tuesday Drop at 2 p.m. Oct. 6. tacobell.com

And my personal favorite: Sombreros!

On 10/6 from 10am-8pm,  registered  Sombrero’s  Rewards members will have a free taco loaded to their account with any purchase of a taco (or an menu item valued at $6+).

Amazon Prime Members: Huge Discounts on GrubHub+ (& Coupon Codes)!

One of the perks of Amazon Prime is that you get a free subscription to GrubHub+ with $0 delivery fees on orders over $12 and reduced service fees.

Here are two codes to save you even more for those nights when you do not want to cook:

Active Grubhub+ members can use the promo code DEALS20 to get $20 off an order of $30 or more through October 5, 2026. Save even more by ordering for pickup! No Delivery fee or tip!

If you are new to GrubHub+, use FIRSTORDER for $10 off a first $20+ order through October 15, 2026.

I used code DEALS20 yesterday to pick up dinner, and I spent $11.00 out of pocket for the three of us. It is definately a great deal.
