Win-Win - Dunkin' Donuts National Coffee Day Contest

In celebration of National Coffee Day, Dunkin' Donuts is searching for its ultimate coffee fan!  Starting today "The Ultimate Dunkin' Donuts Coffee Fan Contest," is open to all people passionate about drinking Dunkin' Donuts coffee to keep him or herself running every day.


To reward the ultimate coffee fan's passion and enthusiasm the company has brewed up its biggest coffee-related prize ever with a grand prize five-day trip for two to tropical Costa Rica , including a visit to one of the region's premier coffee farms (with a personal tour led by Dunkin' Donuts coffee excellence managers) and other exotic adventures.

Other prizes include a trip for two to Boston, Massachusetts, home of Dunkin' Donuts' world headquarters, for an exclusive behind-the-scenes visit with the Dunkin' Donuts coffee excellence team. The day features personal coffee education, an inside look into how the brand brews the perfect cup of coffee, and lunch featuring coffee-themed recipes prepared by Dunkin' Brands' Executive Chef, three-time James Beard Award nominee, Stan Frankenthaler.   Finally the winner will receive 5 years worth of free Dunkin' Donuts coffee, delivered directly to the winner's house.

To enter, visit the Contest Application on the Dunkin' Donuts Facebook page at www.facebook.com/dunkindonuts between September 29 and October 20 and upload a video no longer than 60 seconds that expresses your love for Dunkin' Donuts coffee and why you believe you are the most passionate and loyal fan. Videos may not include footage taken inside a Dunkin' Donuts restaurant.

Online public voting will take place from October 21 through November 4. In addition to the public vote, a panel of Dunkin' Donuts judges will score each entry based on the following criteria: passion for the brand, overall video appeal, originality and creativity. The grand prize winner will be selected based on a combination of the online vote and Dunkin' Donuts judges' scores. The contest is open to all U.S. residents 18 years of age and older.
