The special [promotion from Uber](https://www.uber.com/ice-cream/) kicks off on Friday, August 11, in major cities around North America, including Atlanta, Boston, Dallas, Los Angeles, Miami, New York City, San Francisco, Seattle, Toronto, and Washington, D.C. To get free ice cream, Uber riders in an eligible location should open the Uber app on Friday, find "UberICECREAM," and tap "Request." If you're matched, an Uber ice cream truck will deliver free ice cream to you and up to four more people. Uber trucks will also hand over a special reusable silicone ice cream cone that can be refilled for free with soft-serve vanilla at participating McDonald's locations every Friday through September 22. It's unclear how many Uber customers will actually get ice cream and the refillable cones delivered to them on Friday. A public relations representative for Uber said that there will be up to 25 ice cream trucks operating in 10 cities nationally. The trucks will begin taking orders at 11 a.m. locally, and will keep dishing out free ice cream until 3 p.m. "If users don't get matched at first, we recommend continuing trying," the representative said via email. "They may get lucky!" ```json { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@graph": [ { "@type": "BreadcrumbList", "@id": "https://money.com/uber-free-ice-cream-friday-mcdonalds/#breadcrumb", "itemListElement": [ { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 1, "name": "Home", "item": "https://money.com" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 2, "name": "Lifestyle", "item": "https://money.com/lifestyle/" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 3, "name": "Restaurants", "item": "https://money.com/restaurants/" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 4, "name": "Uber is Giving Away Ice Cream for the Rest of the Summer" } ] }, { "@type": "WebSite", "@id": "https://money.com/#website", "url": "https://money.com", "name": "Money", "publisher": { "@id": "https://money.com/#organization" } }, { "@type": "WebPage", "@id": "https://money.com/uber-free-ice-cream-friday-mcdonalds/#webpage", "url": "https://money.com/uber-free-ice-cream-friday-mcdonalds/", "name": "Uber is Giving Away Ice Cream for the Rest of the Summer", "isPartOf": { "@id": "https://money.com/#website" }, "datePublished": "2017-08-10T20:29:51.000Z", "mainEntity": { "@id": "https://money.com/uber-free-ice-cream-friday-mcdonalds/" }, "inLanguage": "en-US", "breadcrumb": { "@id": "https://money.com/uber-free-ice-cream-friday-mcdonalds/#breadcrumb" }, "dateModified": "2017-08-10T20:29:51.000Z" }, { "@type": "Article", "headline": "Uber is Giving Away Ice Cream for the Rest of the Summer", "articleSection": "Lifestyle", "image": [ { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "https://img.money.com/2017/08/ubericecream-em-184337918.jpg", "width": 5616, "height": 3744, "caption": "Three Soft Serve Ice Cream Cones" } ], "author": [ { "@type": "Person", "name": "Brad Tuttle", "url": "https://money.com/author/brad-tuttle/", "@id": "https://money.com/author/brad-tuttle/#author", "description": "Brad Tuttle is a former senior editor at Money with over 10 years’ experience covering a vast number of personal finance topics, including careers, cars, travel, budgeting, investing, insurance, credit cards, consumer psychology, real estate, banking, and shopping and deals.\r\n\r\n", "image": "https://img.money.com/2014/01/Brad-Tuttle.png?w=226&h=247&crop=1", "alumniOf": "Columbia University School of Journalism, MS", "sameAs": [ "https://twitter.com/bradrtuttle", "https://linkedin.com/in/brad-tuttle-834b225" ] } ], "publisher": "https://money.com/#organization", "datePublished": "2017-08-10T20:29:51.000Z", "description": "Uber has a special promotion starting Friday, August 11, in which riders can request a free ice cream delivery, plus a cone good for free McDonald's ice cream for six weeks.", "abstract": "Uber has a special promotion starting Friday, August 11, in which riders can request a free ice cream delivery, plus a cone good for free McDonald's ice cream for six weeks.", "@id": "https://money.com/uber-free-ice-cream-friday-mcdonalds/", "inLanguage": "en-US", "dateModified": "2017-08-10T20:29:51.000Z", "wordCount": 213, "keywords": [ "deals", "Food & Drink", "freebies", "Ice Cream", "Uber" ], "about": [ { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Lifestyle", "sameAs": [ "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifestyle" ] }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Restaurant", "sameAs": [ "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restaurant" ] } ] } ] } ```
