Auntie Anne’s $50 Golden Pretzel Pass Gets You 52 Pretzels

Auntie Anne’s knows we’re all out here struggling in this economy, and she’s decided to toss us a bone. This week, everyone’s favorite pretzel-making relative is selling a limited number of Golden Pretzel Passes: 52 free pretzels for just $50. Let’s get into the fine print of this fabulous offer.

What does Auntie Anne’s Golden Pretzel Pass get you?

Auntie Anne’s Golden Pretzel Pass isn’t quite a gift card. Rather, the back of the Golden Pretzel Pass has a unique coupon code that, once entered into your Auntie Anne’s Rewards account, lets you redeem one free Original or Cinnamon Sugar Pretzel per week for the next year. If you take full advantage of your Golden Pretzel Pass, that’s 52 pretzels for less than a dollar each.

Based on some rough napkin math, 52 Original Pretzels at the nearest location to me would retail for about $350, which means you’re getting ~$300 in free value! Obviously, those numbers may be slightly different by region; do your own math to see whether this would be the same steal of a deal in your neighborhood. All that being said, the theoretical value is only actualized if you go to Auntie Anne’s every week for a year–no small feat.

How do I get an Auntie Anne’s Golden Pretzel Pass?

Starting April 19th (the day this article gets published), select Auntie Anne’s locations will offer the Golden Pretzel Pass for just $50 while supplies last. Unfortunately, Auntie Anne’s hasn’t announced which locations will be offering this year-long pretzel redemption quest; if you’re desperate, I’d recommend calling ahead to see whether the Auntie Anne’s locations near you have any for sale.

What is Auntie Anne’s doing for National Pretzel Day on April 26th?

What a wildly specific question! If you hate the idea of delayed pretzel gratification (or if your annual pretzel budget isn’t in the double-digits), Auntie Anne’s is giving out free pretzels for National Pretzel Day. All Auntie Anne’s Rewards members will receive an in-app reward redeemable for a free Original or Cinnamon Sugar Pretzel on April 26th. That giveaway comes with an extreme “while supplies last” asterisk; if you’re truly hankering for a pretzel on Auntie Anne’s dime, make sure you beat your local mall walkers to the food court.
