Is Dunkin' Actually Giving Away Iced Coffee Mittens?

I honestly wasn't sure if I was reading too much into this, really gullible, or feeling like I can't trust anybody anymore because of too much AI....

I've seen posts on several different social media pages, and then a few articles floating around as well, all surrounding this idea that Dunkin' will be giving away free left handed 'mittens' with a purchase on Friday. Is this real life?

The Internet Says It's True, So It Must Be

Honestly, when I first started researching the rumor that Dunkin' was going to be giving out iced coffee mittens, I thought it was a scam, but as the day went on, I was seeing the images more and more, and finally, a post in the official Dunkin' Newsroom confirmed the news: iced coffee lovers rejoice (and get to your local Dunkin promptly at 10am this Friday) - this is the real deal!

Dunkin' Limited-Edition Iced Coffee Glove Available For One Day Only

As shared in the official Dunkin' Newsroom on February 18th, for one day only, this Friday, beginning at 10am at participating Dunkin' locations, you may be lucky enough to score an iced coffee glove...

At Dunkin’, we’ve got a soft spot for the guests who love their iced coffee no matter what the weather’s doing. This winter, we’re making it a little warmer to keep sipping.
Beginning Friday, February 20 at 10 a.m., guests nationwide can score a limited-edition Dunkin’ iced coffee glove – a little insulation for your sipping hand – with the purchase of any iced beverage, while supplies last at participating Dunkin’ locations.*

While it hasn't been posted (yet) to the official Dunkin' Instagram, there are a number of locally owned/operated stores that have been sharing the news, and some pro tips on how to get your hand (only one, this isn't a pair) on one of these soon-to-be collectors items.

The word around town is that there is a very limited quantity, and once they're gone, well they're gone. Apparently there's no back stock, and no chance of a restock as well. How soon before we see them on Facebook Marketplace or Ebay for like $200??

Will you be sitting outside your nearest Dunkin' this Friday waiting for the clock to strike 10:00am?
