All The Best National Nurses Week 2026 Freebies & Discounts We Could Find
Because you have more than earned BOGO cookies and deals on lunch.
National Nurses Week comes around each May as a reminder to extend our gratitude to the frontline healthcare workers who keep our whole system running. Because when you’re nervous before your first mammogram or pacing the halls while your kid is getting their tonsils removed, it’s nurses who are right there, doing the important work of listening and caring and just making it all feel OK. While there are many brands and chains that offer National Nurses Week freebies, deals, and discounts, not many advertise them or confirm them online. So, we’ve gathered the verifiable ones here, along with some that seem to happen year after year and are worth calling ahead about.
(One note: This list does not include year-round discounts brands offer to nurses, like Samsung’s 30% for medical professionals or 15% off at New Balance, always. Make sure you’re taking advantage of those deals too; these are just the specials for National Nurses Week.)
