This might be the first tie-in to the Captain America movie out there in the marketplace. This appears to be a promotion that includes a collectible cup. I'm sure somebody here will clarify this since there are no Dunkin Donuts here in Salt Lake, but this promo appears to include a collectible cup and some sort of “card” (I assume they mean a gift card) to purchase that promotes the film.

If somebody spots these items, it’ll be nice to see some scans of the “card” or images of the cup. This promotion doesn’t officially begin until June 27th.

Here is the article that lead me to this promotion: http://www.nrn.com/article/dun...ptain-america’-promo

And here is DD's press release on the promotion: http://news.dunkindonuts.com/a....cfm?article_id=1414

Happy hunting!

One more thing.....for those of us who do not live anywhere near a Dunkin Donuts, I will be interested to know if these cards can be purchased at Baskin Robbins…..

they do sound like gift cards...

Fans also have the opportunity to purchase limited edition Captain America-themed Dunkin’ Donuts Cards at Dunkin’ Donuts restaurants while supplies last. These Cards can be registered online at www.DunkinDonuts.com for a free 30-day trial to a Marvel Digital Comics subscription (restrictions apply).

Geoff,

I live in DD Land here in little Rhody.
I have 3 DD's all within 6 minutes of my house.
I'll check it out for you.
Are you interested in them, the gift cards or cups ?

Fred

Anyone have pics of the card and cup? I most likely interested in the card, and maybe the cup. Unfortunately there's not a DD nearby.

Update.

Officially the promotion starts tomorrow, Monday June 27, but some DD stores have already started it earlier {especially here in RI}.

The regular frozen drinks or iced coffee plastic-cups just have the name "Captain America" written on the cup with his red, white and blue shield below it. And those are all selling at their NORMAL prices.

But the special "First Avenger Tri-Cup", a tri-chambered large cup filled with three different flavored Coolatta flavors, at 8 oz. each, sells for......get this....$5.18 I almost shat myself.
For 24 oz of flavored ice! When I first saw this I thought something else came along with it, like food or a comic book or something. Really I did. LOL I'm not cheap, but I am a little frugal when it comes to certain things. I thought this would maybe sell for three dollars and change but 5.18, wow.

And to top it all off. Out of the 4 DD stores I went to this weekend {3 here in Warwick and 1 in the center of Ct} I asked if I could just purchase the cup only {you can buy the McDonald's Happy Meal toys separately} and they all said, "No, you have buy the product."

Now, my wife is good friends with a manager at our local DD, around the corner from our house, she was off all weekend, but tomorrow when my wife goes for coffee, she'll see if she can buy just the cup. I'll report back as soon as I know more.

Yes (to just the card or cards - scan or picture, maybe??)!!!! You are a good man, Fred!!! Thank you, and btw, if you wind up going to the trouble successfully.....I'll thrown in some of the PB wrappers for you. No-one went for my trade offer (click HERE to see it), so my needs haven't changed, but I'll still give you the warppers you want if I have any you are interested in. Thanks again.

Geoff

Hi All:

Since a few of you were looking for a picture of the card, Kevin LePore sent me a scan of his to post here. Here it is:

Thanks Harris.

I'll have Shawna deal with you later Kevin.

My wife independently wanted to go to DD this morning. So, I reminded her that the Capt. America promotion has started. Between her waiting for a coworker to go together, driving to DD, walking in, ordering their food and drinks, paying, and leaving, she completely forgot.

She did say though that there was NOTHING in the store about Captain America in the way of advertising to remind her.

For those of you that do not have a Dunkin Donuts in your area and want a DD Capt. America gift card, drop me an email and we'll work something out in trade. Note: I like promos! Especially promos from overseas, Chicago, California, Star Trek, Vampirella, Bettie Page, Philly show promos etc.

Wait, I am confused. So there is a Captain America DD gift card as shown in Harris' early post and there are also several trading cards as shown in Erik's post?

They look like great cards, but no where does is say anything about cards. Just promotional art. I'm hoping they are cards though.
