Orbit Gum recently launched a new reimbursement program for individuals who had gone on "dirty dates," the new Bad Date Rebate. The initiative was prompted by a recent survey that revealed over half of singles believe that bad dating behavior is on the rise.
Starting on Monday, March 16th, daters can tell Orbit Gum about a recent "dirty date" experience like being catfished (using misleading pictures on your dating profile) or ghosted (not being contacted at all) for a chance to win $75 on Venmo—the average cost of a first date. To enter, just tag @OrbitGum on Twitter using the hashtags #KeepItClean and #Sweepstakes for the chance to be one of 500 individuals awarded the Bad Date Rebate.
