Friday, June 4th is National Donut Day
Here’s your chance to score free donuts.
Technically, its one free donut per national brand, but you could visit both places and claim a free donut, so who’s to stop you from doing that?
This year, National Donut Day is on Friday, June 4th and deals from your favorite donut places are coming in hot. You can get free donuts and even the chance to win donuts for an entire year.
First, you can stop by Krispy Kreme, and you’ll get a free donut. Yes, totally free! And you can pick any donut you want, not just the classic glazed donut.
Next up, Dunkin’ is offering a free classic donut with any beverage purchase. Your free donut was going to need coffee with it anyway, right?
Dunkin’ said the collection will be available at 12 p.m. EST on Thursday, June 3, exclusively at shopdunkin.com.
Donut diehards are also encouraged to follow Dunkin’ on Instagram and TikTok in the days leading up to National Donut Day for special content for donut fans, celebrating the fun and excitement donuts uniquely inspire.

How about a little history on how this donut day started?
National Doughnut Day was originally established by the Chicago Salvation Army in 1938 to pay tribute and honor all the women who served during World War 1 by handing out doughnuts to all the soldiers.
Nowadays, there are over 10 billion doughnuts made each year in the U.S. alone, which generates revenue in the multiple billion dollar range. It’s a staggering number.

The Dunkin’ Donuts and Krispy Kreme chains will celebrate this special day of recognition again by giving away one free donut per customer, any variety.
At Dunkin’ Donuts, you must purchase a drink in order to get a free donut.
Both chains indicate the free giveaway is available at participating downriver locations while supplies last.
So, you should check with your preferred location before going to claim your free donut.
Everyone loves donuts, and when they’re free, they taste even better.
Spread the word to your fellow downriver neighbors and don’t forget to wipe the powered sugar off your face when you’re done eating!
Do you spell it donut or doughnut? Either way, you get one FREE!
