How you can get a free scoop of ice cream at Baskin Robbins Wednesday
Ice cream giant Baskin Robbins is offering a special kind of coverage for the sweet and sticky situations in life this Wednesday - Melt Insurance.
For one day only, the chain is offering a replacement for the ice creams lost to this summer's record high temps. On August 14, if your ice cream from any ice cream shop melts before you can eat it, you can get a new scoop for free on the Baskin Robbins app - no proof of melt needed.
To cash in on the promotion, customers will need to download the Baskin Robbins App and create an account if they don't already have one. Then, it's as simple as adding a single scoop to your cart for pickup and entering promo code MELT at checkout. Orders placed through the app are usually available for pickup within 15 minutes.
A few things you should know:
- The offer only works on app and online orders and only applies to the purchase of a single scoop of ice cream.
- Waffle cones, toppings and sundaes are excluded.
- You cannot get the deal if you are ordering for delivery or in-shop.
Summer may be winding down but the heat is not - a free scoop of ice cream can't hurt as a cool-down method when giving that hardworking air conditioner a break.
More summer food deals
Summer 2024 has been the season of food deals - from new value menus to anniversary celebrations, there are still plenty of opportunities to nab some freebies and discounts.
