That’s awesome! Love Stewarts! I have family up that way and I’ll be sure to pass that along! Thanks for sharing! ππ
I miss Stewarts best ice cream!
oh! we kinda all overlooked this this year, it’s not even on their website, i usually share the info on facebook the past year or so, i think it has been a newer promo in the past few years or it might just be that our wawa is only 10ish years old and i just paid attention to it in the past 3 years or so
oops lol! https://www.globenewswire.com/news-release/2023/08/30/2734298/0/en/Wawa-Gives-Cheers-to-Classrooms-in-Mid-Atlantic-with-Free-Any-Size-Hot-Coffee-for-Teachers-and-Administration-Every-Day-in-September.html
Thanks for the heads up! We’ll check it out! π€
Strabucks….Panera….I need more drive thru options lol.
We’ll keep an eye out for any more Coffee Day options that might pop up! π
I need drive thru and app options… I love ellianos but ordering can be a real pain
Dunkin – it’s not FREE if you have to make a purchase. And shame on the Bucks not being on this list.
Kahwa is on Friday with the app – my personal favorite.
Thanks for the feedback Suzanne! πGood to know what your favorite is! π I’ll be grabbing the Dunkin’ offer as that’s super close to my house and I’ll need a donut anyway. ππ© We’ll keep an eye out for any more coffee deals that might pop up!
I used to get the Cumberland Farms free but I don’t see them listed this year
I’m not finding a deal listed for them as I search through now either. Hoping you might still be able to grab a yummy coffee deal from one of the options above. βπ€β€οΈ
I can’t find the Tim Hortons’ quarter coffee deal.
Is there only the deal for their rewards members?
Hey Julie! This is the offer we’re seeing for them – “FREE Hot or Iced Coffee with their purchase of $3 or more.” We’ll keep watch if anything else pops up! ππ
I love that Stewartβs made the list
The amazon giveaway is not working for me.
Oh bummer! Sorry for any issues, Di. I still find it to load up for me. Maybe try once more in a different browser. Hoping that does the trick! π€β€οΈ
FYI Pilot Flying Jnis hot coffee only. It does not include iced or frozen. I just found out the hard way and had to buy my iced coffee π€ͺ
Oh darn! I wonder if that might vary. So sorry for that confusion. Thanks for the heads up, Ashli! β€οΈ
Thank you for putting together all of these great coffee deals!! I love coffee!
You’re very welcome! βπ€π Enjoy!
The original post says $100 Amazon gift card and the other on Instagram says a $10 Amazon gift card, which one is correct?
SO sorry for any confusion. The full amount given away is $100, as ten winners will each get a $10 Amazon gift card. ππ Good luck!
