Thank you, nurses! These healthcare heroes should be celebrated every day. However, it’s during National Nurses Week in May when they are put in the spotlight with food holiday freebies and extra retail discounts.
National Nurses Week is every year starting on National Nurses Day (May 6) through May 12. The date May 6 was chosen because it just so happens to be Florence Nightingale’s birthday. There are so many National Nurses Day freebies and deals on food, apparel, home goods, and more. Most of which you can get just by validating your ID through ID.me or SheerID.
Here are the deals we expect to see this year based on freebies and discounts in 2022. Don’t worry, we’ll update this list as soon as National Nurses Day freebies and deals start showing up in 2023.
Until then, stay tuned for more freebies, tips, and deals by downloading the free The Krazy Coupon Lady app.
