Celebrate National Hat Day with Arby's {Gift Card Giveaway - 2 winners!}

Arby's logo
Sometimes I feel as though the calendar is filled with a huge collection of bizarre holidays that we don't even know about... but wouldn't it make life more interesting if we celebrated more of them? I have no doubt that my husband would be happy to know that January 19th is National Popcorn Day and I don't mind marking down that May 6th is No Diet Day!

Another fun holiday that is right around the corner is National Hat Day on January 15th.

A day set aside to wear and enjoy a hat of your choosing, there couldn't be a better time to pick out your favorite shape, size, color and style and display it proudly.

lots of hats

But just as Valentine's Day is symbolized by the heart and Halloween wouldn't be the same without pumpkins, Arby's has decided that National Hat Day needs a symbol as well.

And what would be more appropriate than paying homage to the iconic ten-gallon hat than by declaring it the national hat of America?

National Hat Day petition

That's right, Arby's is preparing to celebrate National Hat Day in the grandest way possible and has introduced a White House petition to declare the ten-gallon hat the national hat of America. Head over there and sign it to show your support!

But that's not all. Arby's has recently introduced a new item to their menu, a decadent Chocolate Molten Lava Cake. The warm chocolate cake is filled with molten lava chocolate and topped with cocoa crumbles, and is available at a suggested price of $1.99 for a limited time. YUM!

Arby's chocolate molten lava cake

But in keeping in the celebratory mood, right now you can download a coupon for 50% off of the new Chocolate Molten Lava Cake on National Hat Day... making it less than a dollar for a plate of rich, warm chocolatey goodness!

This January 15th, be sure to pull out your favorite headgear to get in the spirit of National Hat Day... and don't forget to sign Arby's petition to honor the ten-gallon hat and print a coupon for half off their delicious new dessert!

And, thanks to the generosity of Arby's two people will soon be enjoying a tasty free meal as well, because...

Two lucky people will win a $5 gift card to Arby's!
