Tomorrow is Doughnut Day at Krispy Kreme. On June 6, Krispy Kreme will be offering their customers one free doughnut of their choice.
“National Doughnut Day is one of our most anticipated days at Krispy Kreme. We get to give back to our loyal customers by offering a doughnut on us and celebrating everyone’s favorite sweet treat,” said Stan Parker, Senior Vice President of Marketing for Krispy Kreme Doughnuts. “Whether it’s a cruller or a Hot Now Original Glazed, we are providing the community with a small gift of thanks.”
National Doughnut Day was established in 1938 by the Chicago Salvation Army to raise funds during the Great Depression and to honor the work of World War I Salvation Army volunteers who prepared doughnuts for thousands of soldiers. National Doughnut Day is celebrated annually on the first Friday in June.
Too bad there aren’t any Krispy Kremes around me. Thanks for the tip, though.
I am so GLAD there are no longer any Krispy Kreme stores around here. It took a long time to kick that habit, and the last thing I would have needed was a quick free “fix” to get me hooked again.
Jay: I know what you mean. They are addictive. I was out running errands today with my kids and forgot about the free doughnuts. I remembered when I got home, but I certainly wasn’t going to pay for the gas to drive back out there. I need a chocolate custard Krispy Kreme doughnut with a cup of Dunkin Donuts coffee. Yummm!
