Kroger is celebrating the start of summer with free ice cream.
On Thursday, June 20, North Carolina customers can score a free pint of their favorite Kroger brand ice cream at participating stores, the company said in a news release. No purchase is necessary. Kroger stores in Virginia are not participating in this promotion.
The grocery store giant said it plans to give away 45,000 free pints — or 50 pints per minute of daylight. Customers can visit FreeKrogerIceCream.com on Thursday and download a single-use digital coupon for a free pint, while supplies last.
“With more sunshine to enjoy a sweet treat, we are giving away ice cream for 15 hours straight; that is a whole lot of free ice cream,” Juan De Paoli, vice president of Our Brands for Kroger, said in the release.
Fans can pick from a variety of flavors, including vivid vanilla, mint chocolate chip and tie dye burst, according to the grocer.
There are exceptions, however.
The coupon can be redeemed at Kroger family of stores in most states except: Arkansas, California, Colorado, Idaho, Kentucky, Louisiana, Montana, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, West Virginia and Wyoming, the grocery chain said.
