Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.If you love a freebie and regularly find yourself in need of an iced caffeinated beverage to quench your thirst, you’ll want to head down to Pret A Manger this week.
On Friday, selected shops around the UK will be giving away free, yes free, iced coffees to its customers.
The choices on offer include iced Americanos and iced lattes, made with organic coffee. Alternative milk options are available.
Better yet, customers will also have the chance to try the stores’ new Cold Brew, which has been brewed for over 14 hours with coffee beans from Peru, for free.
But, like the majority of things in life, there’s a catch for those wanting to nab this offer.
To claim a free iced coffee, customers are instructed to head to their nearest participating Pret store and quote a not-so-secret password to a member of staff behind the counter.
On Thursday, the eatery revealed the password is “ice to meet you”.
However, you'll want to be quick as the promotion lasts just one hour, between 10 and 11am, and use of the password allows for only one free iced coffee per person.
“Given we are set to see some sunshine this week, we wanted to ease our customers into the weekend with an iced coffee on us,” Briony Raven, head of coffee and packaging at Pret, said of the deal.
