WENDY’S has some sweet offerings this month as part of a limited time promotion.
Some customers have already taken advantage of free Frostys, but there’ll be more deals at the fast food giant in the coming days.

Out of celebration and recognition of National Girl Scouts Day on March 12, Wendy’s offered the special edition Thin Mints Frosty with either a vanilla or chocolate ice cream base for free.
While the delectable combination of the Thin Mints cookie crumble sauce and the Frosty has been available for purchase since February 21, the no-cost offer was brand new.
“Celebrate all the fun and friendship with the limited-time Frosty inspired by the iconic Girl Scout Cookies,” a press release from Wendy’s noted.
Only some Wendy’s customers could take advantage.
They had to have a registered account with the fast food giant and buy another menu item through Wendy’s mobile application or website.
If you missed out on Wednesday’s offer — don’t fret.
FEELING LUCKY
Wendy’s is gearing up for more freebies in honor of St. Patrick’s Day on March 17.
Those who similarly make orders through the mobile app or website with a Wendy’s account can get a free small fry, per Today.
The catch is that the paid item must be more than $5.
Still, if you’re already headed to Wendy’s for a meal, why not get the added free fry as a bonus?
There’s also another fun way to have a chance at making some serious cash through Wendy’s.
Customers can go on the mobile app and start playing the Thin Mints Frosty Adventure game to try and win up to $10,000 worth of prizes.
There are also some highly-anticipated changes to the Frosty coming soon.
It was confirmed earlier this month that Frosty Swirls and Frosty Fusions would be coming to Wendy’s locations to make the dessert more customizable.

EXPANSION UNDERWAY
CEO Kirk Tanner noted recently at an Investor Day presentation that the fast food giant will open 1,000 additional restaurants by 2028.
If that does happen, Wendy’s restaurant count will be well over 8,000.
Tanner also expects system sales to bring in about $18 billion as a result of the expansion.
“The Wendy’s brand has tremendous strength, and we will unlock its full potential, scaling our system to match the power of the brand,” he said.
“Our relentless pursuit of excellence in our food and our restaurants will position Wendy’s for long-term success as we win across our global markets.”
The CEO also teased “upcoming innovation and collaborations that will build on our high-quality menu with fresh ingredients.”
Wendy’s has already made waves in the industry after adding artificial intelligence at select locations called FreshAI chatbots.
This is among some of three drive-thru changes worth $53 million coming to the chain in 2025.
