As we approach the end of July, weather experts tell us that the hottest summer month is August.  We’ve been sweltering under record summer heat, and one wonders just how much hotter it can get.

Denny’s kids’ drinks and desserts are just the thing to help you beat the heat.  At 99 cents, they are priced right, and you can get them in your choice of take-home sport cup for just $1.99.  Tropical lemonade… made with strawberry and mango flavors.  Cool and refreshing!  Summer sun have you screaming for ice cream instead?  Say “freeze” to the heat with our Oreo Blender Blaster, soccer shake or Sundae, Sundae, Sundae!  They’re sure to chase away those summer blahs!

You don’t need a reason to give (or ask for) Denny’s gift cards.  They fit almost any occasion or non-occasion.  Want to say thank you to someone who went that extra mile for you, let someone special know that you are thinking of them, or simply get Mom out of the kitchen on a hot summer day?  A Denny’s gift card is a perfect way to send that special message.  We have a variety of menu choices that fit small appetites, larger appetites, or people watching their waistlines.  There’s something for everyone at Denny’s.  Give a Denny’s gift card today! 

No, we’re not talking about work you bring home from your school day.  We’re talking about the homework Mom or Dad assigns during the summer months… clean your room; take the garbage out; take the dog for a walk. You get the picture. When you need a break from your summer tasks or a pick-me-up from the hot summer afternoons, head on over to Denny’s for a yummy burger, fries, or your favorite entree or dessert.

Do you know the best thing about being a kid? Sure, spending summer vacation with your friends or having pool parties on your birthday are pretty great (OK, maybe a little better than just great), but what is really awesome is getting your favorite Denny’s kids’ meal for FREE! From 4pm - 10pm on select days, you and your sibling, or a friend, can get a kid’s meal off of the kid’s menu for FREE at Denny’s!  All parents have to do is find out what days their local Denny’s participates in the Kids Eat Free Program, take the family to Denny’s and order themselves an entree to enjoy.

Just because something is good for you doesn’t mean that it doesn’t taste good. Sure, we all love the sweet things, like cupcakes, brownies and candy, but there are a lot of healthy foods that taste awesome. Next time you’re looking for a snack, grab for a sweet fruit or vegetable, like an apple or carrot stick, or creamy vanilla yogurt. You can even go for a tasty bowl of spaghetti for a smart snack. All of these food items are better for you, and are tasty. What’s best is that all of these items and many more can be found at Denny’s. So head to your local Denny’s restaurant today to see all of the menu items available for you so you enjoy your meal, and help to meet your nutritional needs.
