Thanks, Collin! 😀
You’re welcome!
Got one too! And an extra bonus!!!
I watched all 6 videos and got the $5/1 and FREE COFFEE/TEA coupons, but didnt receive any FREE PASTRY coupon.
Were you a new or existing member? It was only for new panera members
are you a new member? free pastry is only for new members. 🙁 yea i wanted the free pastry more than the drink. Love sweets. lol
Jamie, I think that the free pastry was earned at sign up. That’s the way I understood it. And when I signed up (not today) I did earn a free pastry. Maybe if you signed up earlier, it was loaded onto your account at that time.
@Jamie- as soon as I signed up I received the free pastry coupon- showed up and it is also in my dashboard area
how much are the broth bowls normally
Got one today it was8.99 which is way too much but I used the coupon today and it was yummy!
Thanks! Got both and looking forward to trying the broth bowl. Yum!
Panera B is really too expensive for the tiny portions they serve.
I actually like that they serve small portions. It’s really how much our bodies need. I like how they have the calories posted too. It really does help me make better choices.
Totally agree with you Courtney! I much prefer the smaller portions. I usually get half a sandwich and half a salad – that way I can make two meals out of it.
I think small portions are good, but the high prices for those portions are bad 🙁
We’ve gotten so used to paying such low prices for huge servings of unhealthy food. Places like Panera serve reasonable portions of higher quality food – therefore it is more expensive. Unfortunately, you have to pay more for quality ingredients, rather than mass produced, processed frozen foods that most fast food restaurants sell. I choose to pay more at places like Panera or Chipotle because I appreciate their ingredients.
I agree.
Yup. I agree much too expensive. But sooooo good. I am excited to see some coupon options now. Reminds me of starbucks rewards program. Is panera part of starbucks I wonder
Panera and Starbucks are competitors.
Panera has rewards with their loyalty card too, after so many visits and for your birthday
I usually get a you pick two and make two meals out of it. I have salad and bread for lunch one day, and the half sandwich and chips the next. It is kind of expensive, but I don’t mind as much when I break it up like that.
I agree……
yay!! thanks for sharing this post!
You also get a free pastry during your birthday month.
How do you redeem if you don’t have a physical card? TIA
by phone number going to the cashier and telling her your number associated with your account.
Give them the phone number you signed up with when you order. That’s what they told me to do when I signed up last year & it’s always worked great.
You can print one out or tell them the phone number that you registered with.
My Panera can look up your account by phone number. I think most can do that. Hope that helps!
I asked for a physical card and they entered my phone # in the system and was able to convert the #’s.
Can I use all 3 of these coupons at once?
Yes! They will let you redeem any rewards you have at one time.
I generated $5 off coupon and watched other 3 videos to get free coffee/tea or soda.
Thanks for sharing this.
I got the free pastry but there is no banner to click on to watch the videos. Help! What am I doing wrong?
Super silly question, after I watch the videos will the $5 bowl coupon and free coffee go into my rewards or do I need to print coupons? I watched all 6 videos and the congrats screen came up and all videos have a green check mark, but my rewards dash has only free pastry. Thx!!!
I watched the videos yesterday and I could see the rewards today. If they don’t show for you tonight, they should by tomorrow! = )
It takes a few minutes for the rewards to show on the account. I logged out & then logged back in after about 10 mins & they were there.
You ladies were both correct!! Thank you!!! I got all three, It just took a while 🙂
Can you do this on mobile? I’m not seeing the banner
Does anyone know how much the Broth Bowls cost? Thanks!
$8-$9
Running really slow for me but I got the deal.
Can you redeem more than one offer at the same time? Can I get a free drink, pastry and $5 off the bowl all in 1 transaction?
not in the same transactions but in same visit yes. Just say separate tranactions
I love Panera Bread Broccoli chedder soup, Fuji Apple Chicken Salad, and the extra large loaf of sourdough! I order all everytime. Ironically, we just made broccoli cheddar soup at home today because I wanted it for the next few days. I made the Almost Famous Broccoli Cheddar Soup from FoodNetwork.com. I skipped the blender part because I like the broccoli whole. Yummy recipe!
When do coupons expire. I want to do this deal but I am fasting until the 25 th. Can someone please post the expiration for the pastry and bread bowl coupons
They expire 2 weeks from the day you earn them.
Got both yay! Thanks Collin!
thank you!! i’m bummed because i forgot about my free birthday pastry and it expired! 🙁
Thanks so much, I am going to use the coupons soon! Planning a panera date with my daughter this weekend!
Is there some trick to get the coupon at the end? I watched all 6 videos, all the way to the end and after watching them all nothing appeared and there was nothing added to my rewards? What did I do wrong?
Were you signed into your account? I say try again and if that doesn’t work, maybe try a different browser.
Collin – you always have the best timing! I am having lunch with a friend tomorrow at Panera Bread so this is perfect!
Would love feedback from anyone who has tried the new broth bowls! Thanks in advance
I used the $5 coupon and got the Soba noodle with chicken broth bowl. It’s O.k, anout 50% noodles, 25% chicken, and the remaining 25% is broth, mushrooms, cabbage, etc. I would NOT pay $9 for this regularly, but at $3.99 it was a good price for what you get.
I had the Lentil Quinoa Broth Bowl with the Cage-Free egg for lunch today. I loved it! I didn’t know about the bowls before I went in there and I love quinoa so I got it and was delicious. I’m not sure if I would have liked it with the chicken in it though. I’m excited about the $5 off coupon 🙂 Those are some pretty pricey ingredients so I’m okay paying the $7.99 for it. Good quality healthy food that I don’t have to cook is always a winner in my book!
I am having the bowl right now for lunch. Cheap healthy lunch! 🙂
I dont see the video after i signed in?
Any suggestions of the best tasting bowls to try? Thx
I got the Soba Noodle Bowl and it was really good. Only $3 after coupon. I wouldn’t ever pay $8 for it, though. The bowl they gave me was only filled up about 25%. Very small portions.
I got the apple too for my New Years Resolution to eat healthier… Wish I would’ve got the bread to soak up the broth, tho.
Aside from the portion size, it’s really good.
I don’t go to Panera I think it so over priced for what you get!!!
I don’t see these in my acct?
Since it is my birthday on the 19th I stll will get the pastry even though I have been signed up for awhile because that is what you get for your birthday. So really I did get all 3. Thanks Colin.
Thank you Collin!!! Fantastic deals!!!
Used this today without a problem. The bowl was $7.99 ($8.99 for bowls with chicken but hubby is vegan). I was able to add a salad for $2.99. I paid $6 for a salad, a baguette, a broth bowl and a tea. Hubby had the broth bowl and 1/2 baguette + water. I had the salad, 1/2 baguette and tea. We were both full and we’re hearty eaters. Good deal!
I’d love to try these, but they have mushrooms, which I can’t have. Make sure to check the ingredients if you have food sensitivities because mushrooms were not listed for all broth bowls online, but when I looked at the full list of ingredients in-store, they were there. My husband enjoyed the cheap dinner, though! Lol
Does anyone know what drinks are included? Does it include just the brewed teas and coffees or also the mochas, lattes, and iced drinks?
