Hardee’s is offering free breakfast biscuits to drivers as part of its new “Running on Full” campaign. The offer runs through July 2, 2026, and is aimed at customers feeling the pinch from higher gas prices.
According to PRNewswire, the offer is available to Hardee’s My Rewards members who upload a photo showing their vehicle’s fuel gauge at or below one-quarter full. Once the photo is verified, eligible customers can receive a free Sausage Egg & Cheese Biscuit or Bacon Egg & Cheese Biscuit.
What’s on offer?
The deal covers one of two Made from Scratch Biscuit breakfast items. Customers can choose either:
- Sausage Egg & Cheese Biscuit
- Bacon Egg & Cheese Biscuit
The Bacon Egg & Cheese Biscuit comes with cherrywood smoked bacon, egg, and American cheese on a Hardee’s Made from Scratch Biscuit. The sausage version swaps in a grilled sausage patty.
However, the offer comes with two catches:
- It only runs for the first 4,500 eligible entries. So, if you want a free breakfast sandwich, get your photo in now.
- Plus, once your photo is verified, you only have until October 31, 2026, to redeem the offer via the Hardee’s app.
What Hardee’s says
As Hardee’s put it, the promotion is about helping customers stretch their budgets while still getting breakfast.
“With gas prices putting pressure on budgets everywhere, our customers are looking for ways to ease the financial burden,” said Sarah Breymaier, vice president of brand marketing at Hardee’s. She added that the company wants guests “feeling full at breakfast” even when their vehicle tanks are running low.

Hardee’s is a long-running American fast-food chain known for burgers, biscuits, and chicken tenders. The company says it has been around for more than 65 years and operates more than 1,400 restaurants across 31 states with its franchisees.
If you get the free sandwich offer, it can be redeemed through the Hardee’s app or order.hardees.com by registered My Rewards users.
