Baskin-Robbins #TrickBRTreat Solicits Answers To Halloween-Themed Questions

Just in time for Halloween, Baskin-Robbins has launched a “spooktacular” Twitter sweepstakes campaign in partnership with Hershey’s. The fact that John Oliver just skewered sugar seems to have had no effect.

This week through Halloween, the brand will post Halloween-themed questions relating to Hershey’s Heath Bar and Baskin-Robbins’ frozen items to its @BaskinRobbins Twitter account.

Those that choose to respond to @BaskinRobbins between 11:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. EST with the hashtag #TrickBRTreat will be entered into a drawing that will, each day, award two winners a $50 gift certificate to Baskin-Robbins along with a year’s supply of Heath Bars. Sugar haters need not apply.

Here are a couple of questions Baskin-Robbins asked:

Part of the campaign also includes promotion of Baskin-Robbins’ Pumpkin Patch Cake and Fall Harvest Roll Cake which can be ordered online and customized with the buyer’s flavor of choice.
