Wendy’s is giving away a free small Frosty, Frosty Swirl, or Frosty Fusion with any app purchase on Sunday, Nov. 15, and it will start selling an $11.99 Holiday Box the following day.

The Frosty Day offer, which honors the anniversary of Wendy’s 1969 founding, when the signature dessert was first introduced on the chain’s original menu, is available at participating Wendy’s locations in the U.S. In order to qualify, customers must be Wendy’s Rewards members and must place their order through the Wendy’s app.

The Holiday Box, meanwhile, goes on sale Nov. 16 and includes a choice of a Dave’s Double or 10 Crispy or Spicy Nuggets, along with small fries and a small drink. Each box also comes with one of four collectible retro Wendy’s knit hats and is packaged in a design inspired by the Solarium dining rooms that were once common at Wendy’s restaurants. A Peppermint Frosty will be added to the menu the same day.

The fast-food chain is also continuing its weekly deals for Rewards members. On Wednesdays, members can get a free 6-piece order of nuggets with an app purchase of $5 or more. On Fridays, the same purchase gets them free Hot & Crispy Fries in any size.

The brand has another way for customers to earn free food: WendyQuest, a free pixel-art video game for iOS, Android, and PC where players who defeat each of the game’s five bosses receive a code for a free item in the Wendy’s app, including fries, a small Frosty, nuggets, or a Dave’s Single. Each code requires a separate purchase, however. The rewards are limited to U.S. residents 18 and older while supplies last.

New members who sign up for Wendy’s Rewards will also receive an offer for free 10-piece nuggets with any purchase and 200 bonus points after their first purchase.
