Starburst All Pink Just Dropped a Self-Care Kit

by Jennifer SwartvagherJuly 23, 2020

Everyone has a favorite Starburst flavor and many agree the pink ones reign supreme. Starburst announced the All Pink pack will move from a limited-edition product to a permanent offering. To celebrate, the brand has created limited-edition Starburst All Pink Self Care Kits ahead of International Self-Care Day on Jul. 24.

“Our Pink Starburst has been a fan favorite flavor for years and has led to the viral ‘I Am A Pink Starburst’ meme, which personifies feeling special and treating yourself, and others, accordingly,” said Justin Hollyn-Taub, Director, Fruit Snacks. “We’re thrilled to make Starburst All Pink a permanent offering in our brand portfolio to help ensure our fans feel as special as we think they are, every day of the year.”

The Starburst All Pink Self-Care Kits include everything needed to feel special, including a gratitude journal, succulent, yoga towel, jade roller, meditative coloring book, shower steamer, sleep mask, tumbler, and, of course, plenty of Pink Starburst.

Hollyn-Taub added, “We want to celebrate the positivity and empowering message All Pink has come to stand for over the years. We recognize that our day-to-day lives have changed quite a bit this year — and we want to use this as an opportunity to encourage our fans to practice self-care.

Fans can find Starburst All Pink at major retailers nationwide. Additionally, the Starburst All Pink Self-Care Kits are available now at www.StarburstAllPink.com for $0.99 on a first come, first served basis, while supplies last.

The restaurant chain plans to give away one million dollars worth of free burritos throughout the championship.

The games kick off Thur. May 30 and you’ll want to tune in to every game for your chance to win the “freeting” giveaway. So what does freeting mean, exactly?

🏀 We’re giving away up to $1,000,000 in burritos. 🏀 Every time the announcer says FREE we’ll tweet out a code for free burritos. 5/30, 9PM ET TERMS: https://t.co/02TnDtj9Jh #ChipotleFreeting

— Chipotle (@ChipotleTweets) May 29, 2019

Every time you hear the announcer say the word “free”—as in free-throw or free agent—Chipotle will tweet out a special code. Once you get the code you can text it to 888222 to get the instructions on how to redeem your free burrito.

Chipotle will also be offering free delivery throughout the games on orders of $10 or more so you don’t even have to leave the couch to score that freebie. Just throw on a few more burritos to your order and place it with DoorDash or through the Chipotle app.

Hello spring! Dunkin’ is hopping into the season with brand-new menu items, including Peeps Marshmallow Flavored Coffee and a wicked cute Peeps-topped donut.

Along with regular hot or iced coffee, you can also get your Dunkin’ espresso drinks, frozen coffee and frozen chocolate in this most marvelous marshmallow flavor. Even though Peeps-flavored everything is all you really need, Dunkin’ is doing more for its customers this spring.

Look for the Peepsmobile (yes, it’s a real thing) and Dunkin’s custom-sculpted coffee car from Apr. 2 through 4, starting in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. The cars will drive from the Pennsylvania store to Quincy, Massachusetts, stopping at six Dunkin’ restaurants on the way. The first 250 guests to arrive at each stop (after the cars arrive) will get a free small Peeps Marshmallow Flavored Iced Coffee, Peeps donut and other giveaway goodies, while supplies last!
