Dunkin' Celebrates Summer With Iconic New Menu Addition, Declaring 'Summer Should Be Fun'
As summer starts to show itself, one thing is abundantly clear: everyone has warm weather on the brain. And from the looks of it, America's go-to coffee chain does too.
While we make plans for beach days, poolside hangs, park picnics, and backyard cookouts, Dunkin' is leaning into the season's shareable, on-the-go vibe. How? With an oversized Munchkin Bucket, of course.

Leave it to @markie_devo to spot this summer's snackable star: a shiny plastic bucket you can grab on its own or filled to the brim with delicious, sugary Munchkins. Rumored to be available only at select locations and priced somewhere between $3 and $5 sans Munchkins, it's got all the charm of a seasonal collectible and more.
'The hunt for that shiny plastic treasure starts now,' @markie_devo wrote in a recent post. 'The new Dunkin' Summer Munchkins Bucket was spotted at a few locations already,' he added. 'You should start seeing them pop up between now and next week. This find comes to us from White Plains.'The new summer bucket comes decked out with a sprinkles-perforated orange lid, a magenta Dunkin' handle, and a matching magenta scoop. It looks just like a kid's beach pail—complete with a textured base, perfect for building sandcastles—and features a playful beach scene with a donut lounging on a towel in the sand. Think pure summer energy, but make it Dunkin'.
'Have them here in Southington CT,' one viewer shared. '$3 an empty bucket and $15.99 with 50 count munchkins.'
If you ask us, that's a pretty sweet deal. And since demolishing 50 Munchkins solo might not be the brightest move, Dunkin' scores again by making these buckets perfectly shareable. Do yourself (and your friends and family) a favor this summer and keep your eye's peeled for a Summer Munchkin Bucket while supplies last. Seriously, what do you have to lose?Dunkin' Celebrates Summer With Iconic New Menu Addition, Declaring 'Summer Should Be Fun' first appeared on Parade on Jun 18, 2025

Golden Retriever Becomes the Star of Grandma's Sleepover — Backpack and Hat Included (Exclusive)
Wally, a 4-year-old golden retriever, has become an internet favorite thanks to his big emotionsNEED TO KNOW Julia Moriggi, 34, and her fiancé got Wally, a golden retriever, when he was an 8-week-old puppy Now 4, Wally has become an internet favorite thanks to his big emotions — both joyful and heart-wrenching Recently, Moriggi shared a video of Wally arriving to a sleepover at his grandma's, which went viral and amassed over 7 million viewsWally, a 4-year-old golden retriever, has become an internet favorite thanks to his big emotions — both joyful and heart-wrenching. His mom, Julia Moriggi, 34, and her fiancé have had Wally since he was just an 8-week-old puppy. The couple has always loved golden retrievers, and in 2020, they decided to buy a house after their landlord told them they couldn't have a dog. Realizing life is short, they committed to doing whatever it took to make their dream of having a golden puppy come true. Since then, their lives have never been the same. Their world now revolves around Wally and they wouldn't have it any other way. They've even created a social media account for him on TikTok, Instagram and YouTube, where hundreds of thousands of followers tune in to watch Wally share his big feelings through strikingly human-like facial expressions. 'He is a very special dog that has touched the lives of so many people,' Moriggi tells PEOPLE exclusively. 'He is extremely intelligent and intuitive, and we've caught him on camera seemingly fully understanding what we are saying. He is truly a one-of-a-kind dog." When Moriggi and her fiancé travel and Wally can't tag along, he stays with his beloved grandma and grandpa — Moriggi's parents. While he sometimes spends several days with them, his most recent visit was just an overnight stay. Before his latest sleepover, Moriggi packed Wally's little backpack with his favorite toys, food and treats. At her mom's house, she says Wally has his own bed, and grandma always goes the extra mile, making sure there's a new toy or treat waiting for him when he arrives. 'They're the only ones who watch him, and they get so excited when he comes to visit,' Moriggi says. 'They truly treat him like their grandchild.' 'He is obsessed with her,' the product analyst and creator adds. 'Whenever he sees her, he absolutely loses his mind. He loves her so much, but I think she might love him even more. She'll literally pet him for hours, so he knows when he sees her, he's about to get a lot of love (and snacks).' After getting Wally's things ready, Moriggi loaded him into the car and headed off to her parents' house, about an hour away from their home in Boston. As the family got closer, she says Wally smelled where they were going and started bouncing around in the backseat, eager to get out. Once they arrived and parked, Moriggi got Wally out of the car and dressed him in his little backpack and hat, hoping to to surprise grandma with how cute he looked. As they made their way to the door, Moriggi pulled out her phone and began filming the moment. The PEOPLE Puzzler crossword is here! How quickly can you solve it? Play now! 'When grandma opened the door, he ran inside, said hi to grandpa, and immediately found the present waiting for him,' Moriggi recalls. 'He knew exactly where to look because she always has one waiting. He grabbed the whole bag and ran around showing it off to everyone, which was the best part of the video. It's a ritual every time we visit or she comes to our house.' "The hat and backpack started falling off as he got more and more excited,' she says. 'It made the video a little chaotic and so funny.' Later, Moriggi shared the sweet moment online, where it quickly went viral, racking up 7.7 million views and 3,700 comments as of Monday, Aug. 4. What's your sign?

"The backpack and bucket hat 😭 he's the cutest little toddler omg," another wrote. Someone else said, "He's so happy he literally doesn't know what to do with himself ☺️🤗." For the dog mom, it's always exciting when a video goes viral, especially when it features Wally and his grandma. Although the duo has had a few viral moments together, Moriggi says her mom still finds it 'so crazy' and is amazed when people recognize her.

'A lot of people say the video made them smile when they were having a bad day, was the perfect start to their morning, or the best thing they saw on the internet today,' Moriggi says. 'People also share that Wally reminds them of their dogs who have passed away, and they include a little story about them. These comments always bring me to tears.' "Another comment that kept showing up on this video was, 'This is how all animals deserve to be treated and loved,' and that one really hit because it is so true,' Moriggi adds. 'People were also saying they want to be Wally, or come back in their next life as him. They also wondered if they could be adopted into our family or go visit grandma themselves, which always makes us laugh." Read the original article on People Solve the daily Crossword
