On December 3rd, the first 12 qualifying customers at each participating Panera Bread cafe can score a FREE collectible glass Snowman Cup with an in-cafe purchase of $25 or more.

Each cup comes tucked inside a mystery box featuring one of two festive designs, so opening yours is part of the fun. And with just 12 snowman cups per participating location, these cups will obviously go fast!

How to snag your FREE Snowman Cup on December 3rd:

Head to a participating Panera cafe early (you may want to call your local location to confirm opening time) since only the first 12 qualifying customers at each location will get a free cup!
Order inside at the cashier and spend $25 or more after taxes, rewards, discounts, and Sip Club redemptions
Receive your FREE mystery-box Snowman Cup while supplies last (limit one per person).
Note that orders placed at a kiosk, through Rapid Pick-Up, in the drive-thru, for catering or delivery, or on third-party sites do not qualify.

Hip Tip: If you prefer to shop online, Panera also says a limited number of Snowman Cups will be available through The Panera Shop for $25 plus tax and shipping.
