The Smoothie King Smoothies for Two promotion is being run for Valentine's Day to encourage consumers to visit their nearest location with their sweetheart to bond over a healthful refreshment. The promotion will provide couples and friends alike with two 20-ounce smoothies for $10, which can be accessed exclusively by Healthy Rewards members in the Smoothie King app. The promotion plays on research that suggests couples who maintain a communal healthy lifestyle are more likely to stay together in the longterm.
The Smoothie King Smoothies for Two promotion is being offered for one day only -- Friday, February 14, 2025 -- and is also great for value-minded customers to take advantage of to double up on their regular order. The promotion also encourages customers to celebrate the holiday at their nearest location for a cost-effective date.
