Free Pretzel with Any Pretzel Item Purchase at Auntie Anne's on July 26, 2024

Auntie Anne's will be celebrating National Auntie Day on Friday, July 26, 2024, by offering a free Cinnamon Sugar or Original Pretzel with the purchase of any pretzel item at participating locations nationwide.

The offer is only available through the Auntie Anne's app.

As a bit of entertainment, the soft pretzel chain surveyed the two different ways that Americans pronounce "auntie." According to Auntie Anne's findings, 54% of Americans pronounce Auntie as "AHN-TEE" while 46% pronounce the word as "ANT-EE".

However, when referring to Auntie Anne's, more people refer to the chain as "ANT-EE Anne's" instead of "AHN-TEE Anne's" (34% compared to 24%). Oddly, some people also call the chain "Aunt Annies" according to the survey.

Other results from the survey showed that:

• Americans prefer their pretzels sweet (49%) over salty (35%) by a fair amount. Other favored flavors include spicy (12%) and nutty (5%). 
• Cheese (38%) is the number one dip of choice for pretzels followed by mustard (26%), cream cheese (7%), and ranch (4%).
