If you like surprises, then you'll be excited to hear that Burger King is mailing 'Mystery Boxes' to customers who order delivery now through February 4th. Even more mysterious, the new promotion appears to be linked to the Super Bowl.
As a teaser on Burger Kings YouTube channel suggests, the iconic burger chain is teaming up with DoorDash for some kind of Super Bowl partnership. As part of the promotion, Burger King customers who place a DoorDash delivery order of $10 or more will be able to enter the code MYSTERYBOX. Burger King will then ship a Mystery Box straight to the customer's home with the appropriate instructions. While the contents remain unknown, Burger King states that the boxes are valued at about $30. As DoorDash Chief Operating Officer teases, "This limited-edition Mystery Box creates a unique, engaging and innovative experience, and we are excited to launch it nationwide for our customers."
