If you're willing to wait in line, eating for free in NYC is easy. And even if you don't want to wait, there are freebies to be found. You just need to know where to look.

And if White Castle doesn't appeal to you, you can still celebrate National Hamburger Day. Here are 68 other delicious burgers to chose from.

Image source: ephotozine.com



New York, NY

RSVP HERE!

As all facets of technology have advanced many have continued to carry around large outdated DSLR cameras without questioning, “Is there something better?” Some have even abandoned DSLRs collecting dust in favor of an often limited smartphone camera.  

Want a SMART camera that is connected like your smartphone, but shoots pictures like a pro that you can be proud of?

Join Samsung on Wednesday, June 4th from 12pm – 6pm (ET) at the first ever #DitchTheDSLR Day event in Times Square. Come and try out some of the newest, slimmest and the most connected SMART cameras and the first 200 consumers that Ditch a DSLR (trade in) will receive a FREE NX30 SMART Camera ($999 value). Attendees will also have the chance to receive a $50 coupon towards the purchase of a Samsung SMART camera like the new NX Mini.

Samsung will also offer unique photo experiences and expert advice from professional photographers who have already ditched the DSLR.

Enjoy,
Terresa =)
