Big changes coming to the DUNKIN rewards program with not much notice, effective 10/6
-
Points will now expire after a year.
-
Cold Brew redemption nearly doubles from 500 to 950 points!
-
You can redeem points now for ‘free items’ that will be valid for 30 days in your offers area, or stagger redemptions between now and early October so you can extend how long they are valid for.

Thank for the head’s up. I’ve got over 4k points banked up, will have to ponder my options.

Easy decision for me. I had been getting a large cold brew with my points, that’s going from 500 to 900 points.
I have 6K points (about 12 drinks, banked from the free Aven $5 gift cards I was getting and various booster promos). Between now and 10/5 I will redeem all 12 for free cold brews, already did 1 today. so between now and 11/5/25 I’ll be getting about 2 free ones per week. I can handle that. The redeemed reward is valid for 30 days and just sits in your offers panel awaiting use.

Yep, cold brew is my wife’s favorite to redeem for, too.

A little off-topic, but since this thread is about Dunkin’ Donuts. I bought a dozen Dunkin’ Donuts for the first time in a long, long time yesterday around 5 PM and they were expensive and they didn’t taste very good. Tasted kind of day old. I guess I was eating donuts they most likely made in the early morning…
-
Yeah, DD has been much more about beverages than donuts over time. The donuts are ok, not anything special.

That late in the day, I ask them to sell them to me at 1/2 price. They throw out most of what they don’t sell at closing. Some stores will do it, especially if they have a ton still on the shelf.
If you ask nicely, its worth the gamble, worst they can do is say no. (I have purchased muffins and bagels like that, not a big donut person, but I can confirm I’ve gotten deals on baked goods after 4 or 5PM, again based on closing time (usually 8 or 9) and how much they didn’t sell.

One thing they do have which I think is outrageously good and worth it is their Coffee Cake Muffin. Far more satisfying that a donut, can cut it in 1/2 eat part now, rest later.

Venturing even a little further off-topic, there’s an app you can download that facilitates a similar effect called To Good To Go. You create an account and can see participating stores in your area, from major chains like Panera, Whole Foods, and gas stations to local mom-and-pop bakeries and pizza parlors. Basically, the stores put together a bundle of various end-of-day food, depending on the types of items they sell (pizza, sandwiches, bakery items, deli, etc.) and you can buy them at a substantial discount. The items, prices, and availability varies from day to day, quantities are limited, and they often sell out. You also have to be able to pick up your bundle at a specific time, usually close to closing time. It’s a nice idea, I’ve yet to experience it as most things sell out quickly in my area. One of these days I’ll get lucky and see what happens.
