This week you'll find lots of new food deals including a freebie for all of us who are sports fans.

Thanks to everyone who's been e-mailing me their finds. I always appreciate it. Enjoy!

Food Deals
• Bring friends, eat free. Marcia e-mailed me about a deal at Mama Fu's. Through September 7th if you bring in two friends that are new to Mama Fu's, mention "Fu for Yu" and receive a free entrée.

• Show your team spirit, get a free sandwich. On Labor Day, September 7th between 10:30a.m. to close, the Chick-fil-A in Austin and all the stores around the country are offering a pretty sweet deal. Anyone who comes in wearing sports related apparel, we're talking a t-shirt, jersey, ball cap, socks, whatever for your favorite team, gets a free Chick-fil-A chicken sandwich. That's every person who sports their favorite team's logo. Thanks Ashley for the tip!

You can also sign up to be part of the chicken wave for a chance to win other free food prizes.

• Sign up for Carino's Italian e-club and get e-mail for all kinds of coupons including this latest promotion for kids. Between September 4th and September 13th your kids eat free as long as you purchase a regular price adult entrée. They call it a back to school treat.

• Flemings has a special September Prime Burger promotion which just started yesterday. Come in and sit at the bar every Wednesday from 5 to 7 pm and enjoy complimentary mini burgers of the restaurant's five new prime burgers.
And every day you'll find five different appetizers that cost just $6 during happy hour (5-7pm).

• Helping someone else is a piece of cake. The Cheesecake Factory is giving away free slices of Stephanie's Red Velvet Cake Cheesecake to the first 500 guests who donate two cans of food. It's all part of an effort to drive out hunger. And on September 30th, they'll donate 10 percent of your guest check to a local food bank.

Travel Deals
• Southwest Airlines is having a pretty big sale. Tickets are anywhere between $59 to $109 one way for travel through January 7, 2010. You've got to book your tickets at least 14 days in advance and there are blackout dates around the holidays. The sale ends September 3rd.

• Southwest Airlines is also offering a friends fly free deal when you book a flight and hotel to Orlando or Las Vegas. The offer is good through September 29th.

• Matt e-mailed me about a great web site worth checking out. It's called Twavel.com. It compiles all the best travel deals from Twitter.
