Where to get your Tax Day freebies and discounts

Tax Day is almost here!

But several companies around the country are trying to relieve the Tax Day sting by offering taxpayers free treats, workouts, massages, and drink and dining specials.

So how can you get in on the freebie fun?

Check out the list below Janet Bodnar, editor at Kiplinger's Personal Finance,  shared on "The Early Show" Friday:
