Some blizzards bring nothing but snow. The Blizzards at Dairy Queen are better because they have bits of chocolate and other goodies mixed in with ice cream.

Through March 24, you can get one of the tasty type of Blizzards for just 99 cents when you buy one at regular price at a participating Dairy Queen.

No coupon is necessary for the buy one, get one for 99 cents offer. But your discounted Blizzard does have to be the same size or smaller than the one you pay full price for. So you can’t buy a small Blizzard and get a large one for 99 cents.

Buy a Blizzard at Dairy Queen and you can get a second of equal or smaller size for just 99 cents.

The promotion runs through Sept. 23 at participating locations in the U.S. and through Sept. 16 in Canada.

Dairy Queen’s website and an e-mail I received from the Blizzard Fan Club said you don’t need a coupon for the special.

Go to www.dairyqueen.com/us-en/Promotions/ to see the offer.

A co-worker reported that the Dairy Queen on Peach Street near Cherry Street in Erie was advertising $1.99 Mini Blizzards all month.

I checked the Dairy Queen website and it confirmed that any flavor of the sweet little treats is that price at “participating locations” through April 30.

What’s your favorite Blizzard flavor? I like the Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup one.
