I’m thinking about things like free museums Sundays or times to get specific things (e.g. candies after Halloween as they are on discount)

Depends, this isn’t universally true. Some popular areas (near national parks, etc) have restrictions on them. But otherwise it’s usually fair game. So worth double checking but it’s often true.
BLM land is the same way though I have been shot at by rednecks there so keep in mind some areas can be a bit lawless.
What’s BLM, for those of us not in the group?
Bureau of Land Management.
It’s government-owned land but it’s generally free to use for camping. The USA is very big.
Bureau of Land Management. Basically after the US stole all its land and distributed the useful areas to farmers, national forests, parks, etc. anything that didn’t have an obvious use was left with the BLM. So it’s lots of empty places that no one goes, mostly in the west. And you can usually camp there, but as with USFS you’ll want to check each local area to make sure.
