It's National Coffee Day on Wednesday, and to celebrate, some of the biggest brands are giving away a free cup-of-joe (while others have deeply discounted their brew).

Here's a round-up of the deals coming your way:

7-Eleven: The convenience store chain has two offers running for National Coffee Day. The nation's largest convenience store chain will give a free extra large hot coffee with any purchase for those using 7-Eleven Delivery via their 7NOW app. Members of their 7Rewards loyalty members can also get a free coffee on Wednesday with the purchase of any baked good.

Au Bon Pain: Why celebrate National Coffee Day on one day, when you can celebrate for three? The bakery chain is launching a three-day pay-it forward celebration on Wednesday. For the rest of the week, hot and iced brewed drip coffees are $1 — something to encourage customers to pick up more than one coffee, so they can treat a friend or two.

Barnes & Noble: Purchase any item from the bakery at the store cafe and nab a free hot or iced tall coffee.

Biggby Coffee: Participating locations will give customers a free 20-ounce hot brewed coffee.

Black Rock Coffee Bar: The coffee chain has discounted medium coffee-based drinks to $2 on Wednesday.

Casey's: Members of Casey's Rewards will get a free small coffee with any purchase, through Oct. 2.

The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf: A free regular brewed coffee is yours, after any food or beverage purchase that costs $2 or more.
