Dunkin’ Donuts refreshes its Marlins promotion
With the mercury continuing to rise this summer and the Marlins beginning the second half of the season against the Washington Nationals at Dolphin Stadium tonight, Dunkin’ Donuts is altering its Marlins donuts promotion to help fans keep cool.
Instead of a medium coffee with two donuts, fans can now get a medium iced tea if the Marlins score at least six runs at home. Fans have 24 hours in which to turn in their ticket stubs (one per customer) at participating Broward, Palm Beach, Miami-Dade and Treasure Coast Dunkin' Donuts locations after games in which the team scores at least six runs.
Dunkin’ Donuts is using the opportunity to promote its new iced tea, which comes in original, peach and raspberry flavors. So far this season the Marlins have scored six or more runs at home a dozen times. If all fans in attendance at those games had cashed in their ticket stubs that would have amounted to more than 340,000 free donuts.
