Not familiar with the movie? Here’s the summary:

Dunkin’ Donuts: FREE Coffee on Mondays in March

Posted on | March 8, 2010 | No Comments

UPDATE: So I made a special trip by Dunkin Donuts yesterday, the one on Watson Blvd. in Warner Robins. I was planning on treating myself and my hubby to some free coffee and some doughnuts. When I mentioned the special, they looked at me like I was crazy. Long story short, they don’t intend to honor their own promotion. So, no coffee, no doughnuts, just errands for me yesterday. Better luck next Monday at another location, but not the one in Hwy. 96…it’s owned by the same person.

Really, what’s better than coffee? Well, I guess free coffee. If you share this affinity for caffeinated beverages, then you’ll love that Dunkin’ Donuts is offering a free cup of Iced or Brewed 100% Arabica Bean coffee for the remaining Monday’s in March!!! No coupon is required!

So put Dunkin’ Donuts on your errand list for today and treat yourself to some free coffee. Oh, and if you’ve not tried their Iced Coffee, you really should – and here’s your chance to try it free.
