Dunkin' to Give Away One Million Free Coffees on Aug. 25

Dunkin' is giving away one million free coffees on Tuesday, Aug. 25, 2026, according to reports from al.com, M Live Michigan, and The Oregonian. The promotion requires a special code that will be released around midday on Tuesday, allowing customers to claim a free specialty, espresso, or frozen drink. The code will be announced on Dunkin's social media sites, and customers must have the Dunkin' app to redeem it.

How to Claim the Free Coffee

To take part, customers need to open the Dunkin' app and navigate to the "Offers & Rewards" section. The promo code will be revealed there, and customers are advised to enter it promptly to secure their free drink. The coffees can only be redeemed through Sunday, Aug. 30, giving customers a limited window to use their reward.

Part of Dunkin's Fall Menu Rollout

The promotion coincides with Dunkin's rollout of its fall menu, as reported by Parade magazine, which includes the new Pumpkin Spice Signature Latte and Pumpkin Spice Cloud Dunkalatte. According to the three outlets, the giveaway is part of a broader marketing push tied to the seasonal launch.

Other Promotions Coming Up

Parade reported that Dunkin' has several other promotions planned for the coming weeks. On Aug. 30, customers can get a free mini tennis can with the purchase of a 3-count Munchkins order. Then, on Tuesday, Sept. 8, Dunkin' will offer a free Pumpkin Spice Latte with any purchase, followed by a free mystery cup sleeve with any purchase on Tuesday, Sept. 22.

What was claimed, and who backed it

Each row is one claim, attributed to the outlet whose wording states it most clearly. Confidence rates how directly the source text states the claim — explicit and unhedged rates high; hedged, pieced-together, or internally inconsistent statements rate lower. It does not measure whether the claim is true. Status counts the distinct outlets we found asserting it — so a single-source claim can still show high confidence, and a multi-source claim can show medium. Every one of those outlets is named beside the status, so you can check the count against the list. For claims extracted before we began storing that list, the row says so: it names the outlet the claim is quoted from and states that we have not recorded which outlets backed it. Outlets wrote at different times, so a figure that evolves — a casualty count, for example — can legitimately differ between rows; check the "as of" time next to each claim's source.
