Krispy Kreme To Offer 86-Cent Donut Dozen Deal On Its Birthday

Krispy Kreme Doughnuts will turn 86 on Friday, July 14, and while that alone may not turn your head, what might is that on that day, the iconic company will be offering up a dozen of their Original Glazed doughnuts for just 86 cents. 

And such a good deal is bound to come with a few other provisos, so let's run through them. One of the catches is that you have to make it a party because the discounted box of a dozen only comes with the purchase of another at the regular price. Second, four boxes is the limit if you're ordering in-store or from the drive-through, and two dozen donuts is the limit for online orders (by the way, the code for redeeming the offer online is 86YEARS). And finally — and this is just between us — show up early to your local Krispy Kreme store on Friday to avoid the lines that are sure to form to snag this deal.

You might be doubly interested in Krispy Kreme's birthday special if you missed the two-day-only return of their beloved Chocolate Glazed earlier this month. As far as we know, these particular delights will not be on offer on July 14, so you'll just have to content yourself with scooping up a dozen of their Original Glazed at a dramatically-reduced price. We trust that not only will this be sufficient consolation, the Chocolate Glazed will make a return appearance before too long, given their popularity. Even though this is a one-day-only offer, the world-famous donut shop loves to find an excuse to surprise customers, so the next promo can't be long ahead.

The company has been around since 1937, and to this day the exact recipe of Krispy Kreme's Original Glazed has remained a closely-guarded secret. Whatever the secret may be, it works, as the donut chain has consistently been ranked as America's favorite.
