It's Teacher Appreciation Day and businesses are showing teachers some love with everything from sweet deals to free meals!

Restaurants and retailers nationwide are showing teachers that their hard work doesn't go unnoticed by offering dozens discounts all week, but the biggest freebie day for educators is Tuesday, May 7th. According to USA Today, offers may vary depending on location require teachers to show a school ID, so if you want to stay on the safe side you can always call your local location before stopping by.

The list of Teacher Appreciation Day deals is pretty hefty, so I tried to narrow it down to restaurants and retailers I know we have in the Lafayette are, but if you want to check out the full list take a peek at the USA Today website.
