Variety of ice cream scoops in cones with chocolate, vanilla and strawberry

Baskin-Robbins Is Giving Away a Free Scoop Today — Here’s How to Claim It

Healthy Fact of the Day

A single scoop of ice cream is actually a reasonable treat when kept to one serving — most single scoops clock in between 150 and 250 calories depending on the flavor. Opting for a cup over a cone saves around 50 calories and cuts out extra sugar, and going with a fruit-based or lower-fat flavor can also lighten things up without sacrificing the experience. With a BOGO deal, sharing the second scoop with someone is an easy way to enjoy the celebration without doubling your intake.

Today is a good day to get ice cream.

Baskin-Robbins is celebrating Mother’s Day weekend with a buy-one-get-one-free scoop deal for Rewards members — available today, May 9 only, at participating locations nationwide. It’s one of the better ice cream deals of the year, and it’s over when the day is.

How to Get the Deal

The BOGO offer is exclusive to Baskin-Robbins Rewards members. Here’s what to know before you head out:

  • Who qualifies: Baskin-Robbins Rewards members only — membership is free
  • How to join: Download the Baskin-Robbins app and sign up at no cost; new members can access the deal today
  • How to redeem: The offer will appear under the Deals tab in the app at participating locations
  • When: Today, May 9, only — the deal does not carry over
  • Where: Participating Baskin-Robbins locations nationwide

Note that this offer cannot be combined with other promotions, and availability may vary by location.

What to Order

Today is a great day to try Baskin-Robbins’ May Flavor of the Month: Pistachio Chocolate Bar — a blend of pistachio and chocolate-flavored ice creams with pistachio pieces and chocolate crunch swirls. It’s rich, nutty, and seasonal, making it a natural pick for the first scoop while the free one goes to whatever classic you’ve been craving.

Also worth noting: new Rewards members get an additional perk — BOGO 50% off Creature Creations through May 31, 2026, making the sign-up an even easier call if you haven’t joined yet.

The Mother’s Day Connection

Baskin-Robbins is running the BOGO deal as a Mother’s Day weekend celebration — and it’s a smart hook for bringing Mom in for a treat the day before the holiday. The chain also brought back its fan-favorite Perfect Peony Cake for the season, a customizable ice cream cake available at participating locations. Custom cake orders for Mother’s Day pickup required advance ordering, but walk-in cakes are available while supplies last.

The Bottom Line

Baskin-Robbins Rewards members get a free scoop with any scoop purchase today, May 9 only, at participating locations. Download the app, join for free, and claim the deal under the Deals tab before the day is over. Bring Mom — or don’t, and keep both scoops for yourself. No judgment here.

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

It’s National Splurge Day — And BOGO Week Just Started at Five Major Chains

BOGO Week is a great opportunity to share a meal rather than eat double — splitting the second item with someone means you get the deal without doubling your calorie intake. Of the five options this week, the Tropical Smoothie Cafe BOGO is the most nutritionally sound choice, since smoothies made with real fruit provide natural vitamins and fiber. The Subway BOGO on a 6-inch sub is another smart pick — load it up with vegetables and choose a lean protein like turkey to keep the meal balanced. If you’re hitting multiple chains this week, spacing them out across the full seven days rather than stacking them in one or two days is a practical way to enjoy the savings without overdoing it.

The Curious Life of Food Trends and Why They Keep Coming Back

Research on dietary trends and public health consistently finds that food trends driven by genuine nutritional evidence — the Mediterranean diet, the increased consumption of fermented foods, the shift toward whole grains and legumes — produce lasting improvements in population dietary quality, while trends driven primarily by marketing or social signaling tend to produce short-term behavioral changes that revert when the trend recedes. The most durable dietary improvements come from understanding why specific foods are nutritionally valuable rather than simply following the cultural moment that made them fashionable — making nutritional literacy a more reliable guide to healthy eating than trend-following.
