In celebration of National Refreshment Day on July 24, STARRY® introduced its '100 Degrees, 100% Off' campaign, a nationwide initiative offering consumers free STARRY® when summer temperatures hit triple digits. The campaign encourages refreshment during peak heat by providing a full rebate on a 20 oz. bottle of STARRY®—regular or zero sugar.
Starting July 24, participants can download a mobile wallet pass from the campaign website. When temperatures reach 100°F anywhere in the U.S., the pass activates, allowing users to upload their purchase receipt and receive 100% cashback via PayPal or Venmo; the offer remains valid through September 2, while supplies last.
Additionally, STARRY® extended the campaign to Miami, Charlotte, and Atlanta, where vending machines dispense free 20 oz. bottles when local temperatures hit 100°F between July 24 and 31. Digital billboards in these cities also promote the activation, and residents remain eligible for a national cashback offer.
