The $1 Deal You Need
While the new treats are certainly tempting, Panera is reminding us why we love their savory side during the colder months.
You can score a $1 cup of soup with an in-app purchase of a whole entrée! Just use the code SOUP at checkout for a limited time at participating locations. That means you can grab your favorite bowl of creamy goodness practically for free when you order your sandwich or salad.
“From bakery treats to handcrafted beverages, we’re always exploring new ways to surprise our guests with flavors that highlight the familiar comfort of the season,” said Mark Shambura, Panera’s Chief Marketing Officer.
