Take a bite out of these National Sandwich Day deals

If you're a fan of sandwiches, today is your day. Monday, Nov. 3, is National Sandwich Day (yes, that's a thing), which means you could have a free or discounted sandwich for lunch or dinner (or both).

Personally, I celebrate my love for sandwiches at least once a week, but today they get the national attention they deserve in the form of some very tempting deals from restaurants you know and love. If you're looking to participate in the hand-held holiday, check out some of the best freebies and discounts we found below. After all, it only makes sense to save some bread on National Sandwich Day (sorry).
