Happy Ice Cream Sunday!
It’s one of the best (and most fitting!) days of summer: National Ice Cream Day! Sunday, July 16 ice cream shops and chains nationwide are celebrating by offering a range of freebies and sweet deals—including here in D.C. To help Washingtonians cool down with an ice-cold sweet treat, Secret D.C. has gathered all the best National Ice Cream deals happening in D.C.:
1. Here’s the Scoop
Ice cream for a good cause! On Sunday, customers who donate to the Milton Douglas Scholarship Fund for DCPS students will receive a free soft serve. Feeling extra giving? Even though other sweet treats will still be full price, a portion of all Sunday’s sales will also be donated to the scholarship fund.
2. Dolcezza
All customers on Sunday who buy one small scoop of gelato will get one free (including seasonal summer flavors like terragon and blackberries and cream)!
3. Ice Cream Jubilee
Loyalty members will be treated to a $1 single scoop of ice cream on Sunday (you can still sign up to become a loyalty member).
4. Insomnia Cookies
They may be more known for their cookies, but this ice cream deal is sweet! Customers can get a free scoop of ice cream with any additional purchase (like a cookie—or two to make your own ice cream sandwich!) in-store or online—but not for pickup!
5. Baskin-Robbins
Customers can get $5 off all orders that are $20 or more! The discount is applied automatically when you order through DoorDash or Uber Eats. If you use the Baskin-Robbins app, just input the discount code: SEIZETHEYAY.
6. Cold Stone Creamery
Cold Stone Creamery is honoring National Ice Cream Day by offering My Cold Stone Club Rewards members $4 off purchases of $20 or more. (You can still download the app and create an account to become a member!)
