100% Cash Back at Dunkin’ up to $3 with This Groupon Deal
Groupon is offering a Dunkin’ Donuts deal that provides 100% of your purchase back – up to $3 – as a credit card statement credit.
Dunkin’ Deal
This deal is a little more involved than most Groupon money-saving offers. You’ll need to link your credit card in order to receive the automatic statement credit.
Which, for some, might be more effort than it’s worth.
For those who are okay with linking a credit card, here’s how the deal works.
- Cash back is awarded as a statement credit on the linked credit card
- Deal is valid for 100% cash back (up to $3) on the first purchase only, then you’ll get 10% cash back (up to another $3) on 5 additional purchases
- Maximum of 6 uses per customer
- Valid on in-store or Dunkin’ Donuts mobile app purchases
- Deal expires September 27, 2018
This deal could easily equate to a free coffee or two, latte, or selection of donuts when you use your linked credit card to pay.
Considering you’re able to get the statement credit when you use your DD mobile app to purchase makes me think DD Perks account reloads would also trigger the statement credit.
And to double dip this deal, you could use the MasterPass reload promotion – load $10 to your account and automatically get an extra $5 – in conjunction. The MasterPass promo ends August 31, 2018.
The Double Dip Play
Use a card associated with your MasterPass account to link to this Groupon deal. Then use that same card to add $10 (make a Dunkin’ purchase) via the mobile app using MasterPass to pay. Stacking these deals, in theory, should get you $15 added to your Dunkin’ account for only $7 after the automatic $3 statement credit.
I haven’t actually tried this, so I can’t guarantee it will work. The variable may be whether a DD Perks account reload counts as a Dunkin’ purchase to activate the $3 statement credit.
If it does work, then you could add three more $10 reloads via MasterPass prior to the deal’s expiration at the end of the month to get the additional $3 statement credit as a result of the 10% cash back aspect of the promo. This would get you $45 in your DD Perks account for only $27.
Not a bad deal.
Of course, if you’re not a Dunkin’ devotee, grabbing coffee and/or donuts on a fairly regular basis, this deal, and the in-depth plays described above are not for you.
The Simplest Play
If what I detailed above makes your head hurt, you can simply link a credit card to the Groupon deal and use that card to make a purchase at Dunkin’ getting $3 of your total purchase back as a statement credit.
Wrap Up
This isn’t a huge money saver, but it’s better than nothing if you visit Dunkin’ Donuts on a regular basis.
And, stacking the MasterPass and Groupon deals – if it works – can make your Dunkin’ savings that much sweeter.
