Many of us like to start the day well by drinking a caffeinated beverage.

For some, this will mean a trip to their favorite coffee shop on the way to work, and the only thing that can make the whole experience better is a free drink.

This could become a reality for hundreds of people this week as 600 free coffees will be given away on Tuesday, October 1 to mark International Coffee Day.

To celebrate the occasion, coffee lovers will have the opportunity to stock up on a free drink from brands including Costa Coffee, Caffè Nero, Starbucks and Greggs.

When is International Coffee Day?

International Coffee Day is celebrated on October 1, and events are held around the world to commemorate this hot drink.

The first day of this type took place in 2015 and was inaugurated in Milan.

On this day, many cafes and businesses will offer discounts, giveaways and fun promotions to promote their drinks.

This also applies to major coffee chains across the country, and a special prize giveaway offer is available on Tuesday at vouchercodes.co.uk.

How to claim free coffee

To be in with a chance of winning one of the free drinks, just visit the VoucherCodes website.

The offer will be available on the website on Tuesday from 10:00. All you need to do is be online and be able to use it when it’s available.

VoucherCodes also offers a £4 voucher which can be used at any café for up to six months.

To increase your chances of winning, you can become a VoucherCodes VIP for free to receive additional prizes and discounts.

If you don’t manage to take advantage of the offer in time, there are always other ways to get a cool freebie.

Using the app in coffee shops is another way to get free hot or cold drinks.

For example, Caffè Nero gives away free drinks via coupon codes, but there are other ways to get your Nero fix. Anyone you successfully refer on the Caffè Nero app will receive a free hot drink after making their first purchase, and you’ll also receive a free drink for yourself.

And for those of you who are fans of Greggs but don’t have the app, downloading it will instantly reward you with a free hot drink.

Although Costa drinks are part of the VoucherCodes offer, the outlet also offers freebies for app users.

Customers can pick up beans in store via the app or ask the barista for a receipt so they can add beans later. After collecting 10 beans, customers receive a free drink.

But coffee purveyors also randomly give out freebies for a limited time (and on your birthday you get a free cake that’s redeemable for a week).

Starbucks also has a very similar loyalty points system for its customers.
