About a month ago, I received a happy little email from Panera. “Free Daily Bagel in April.” WHAT?! One free bagel. Every day. For an entire month. All because I have one of those free MyPanera accounts. Let me clarify: I do not work for Panera, and this is not a sponsored post. I’m simply showing some love for an awesome reward! (And I’m letting you in on the “secret” so…Continue reading 13 Going On 30: 13 Panera Bagels in 30 Days
