Krispy Kreme Donuts 88 Cents Deal Celebrates 88th Anniversary with Sweet Savings

Krispy Kreme celebrates its 88th anniversary by offering a special promotion on its iconic Original Glazed doughnuts. On July 18, customers purchasing any dozen doughnuts at regular price are eligible to receive an additional dozen of the Original Glazed variety for just 88 cents at participating locations. In-store and drive-thru shoppers can obtain up to two discounted dozens, while online customers are limited to one dozen for pickup or delivery, using the promotional code "BDAY."

According to Krispy Kreme's Chief Brand and Product Officer, Alison Holder, this annual celebration is about expressing gratitude to customers for their loyalty and love, by providing them with a remarkable deal. This tradition of offering special deals aligns with Krispy Kreme's history of celebrating milestones with their customers.

Founded in 1937 by Vernon Rudolph in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, Krispy Kreme has grown from a small operation selling to grocery stores to a global brand with more than 357 locations in the U.S. and operations in over 40 countries. The Original Glazed doughnut has been a staple of the brand, selling to passersby drawn by the scent wafting from the store in its early days.

As part of the 88th birthday celebrations, Krispy Kreme introduced its "Hungry for Heroes" collection in collaboration with Warner Bros. Discovery, featuring doughnuts themed after beloved DC Comics superheroes. These new offerings include the Superman Doughnut, filled with white Kreme and topped with Superman buttercreme, the Batman Doughnut with cookies and Kreme filling and black chocolate icing, and the Wonder Woman Doughnut adorned with themed toppings.

This superhero-themed collection is available from July 8 for a limited period, in shops or for delivery, and offers a creative twist to the classic products. Further, from July 24-27, aligning with Comic-Con events, customers showcasing their superhero fandom at participating locations can receive a complimentary doughnut from the collection with any purchase, while supplies last.

The 88-cent dozen promotion represents significant savings compared to the usual price, depending on the location, and continues the company's tradition of significant special offers on anniversaries. Customers are encouraged to check with local stores for availability and specific hours to take advantage of this one-day-only offer as stocks are limited.
