National Donut Day 2010 Free Donuts Offered
Krispy Kreme and Dunkin' Donut Offer Free Donuts to Celebrate National Donut Day 2010
At Dunkin' Donut it is a required that you first purchase a beverage and then you can get your free donut all day for National Donut Day. Can't make it to Dunkin' Donuts on June 4th for the freebie? Not a problem, you can RSVP at the Dunkin' Donuts Facebook page. Also, check out the Dunkin' Donuts website on National Donut Day to see the winner announced for their 'Create Dunkin's Next Donut Contest'.
Krispy Kreme does not require any purchase to get your free donut as they celebrate National Donut day with you. You can choose any Krispy Kreme donut out of the case that you want. So if you prefer glazed, sugared, or chocolate covered donuts the Krispy Kreme people want you to tweet about it using the hash tag #KrispyKreme. Or maybe you can take a picture with your favorite free donut and post it on their Facebook fan page.
It seems that the celebration of donuts can be traced all the way back to 1938, according to Wikipedia. National Donut day is based on a Chicago Salvation Army fundraiser to help people out during the great depression. It was also to serve as a reminder of the service performed on the battlefields in France during WWI when the Salvation Army served coffee and donuts in the trenches to the brave men fighting the war on the front lines.
Check you local papers and websites for any local free donut offers for June 4th, National Donut Day. Such as in downtown Cincinnati at Fountain Square from noon to 2 p.m., there will be a donut celebration that will include celebrity doughnut-stacking competitions, sliding doughnut races and a doughnut hole toss contest. Local Cincinnati doughnut shops will be offering free donuts and the Salvation Army will provide the free coffee.
Make sure that you grab a friend and enjoy those free donuts on National Donut Day!

Post a CommentFree doughnuts? Sounds pretty good to me. Probably a good thing I am housebound today.
Just letting you know your article was stolen: http://msmdcnews.com/national-donut-day-2010-free-donuts-offered-associated-content/4536
Krispie Kreme will definitely profit from this. No one can eat just one KK.
Thanks for the heads up!
P.S., I HATE that every one misspells doughnut now! A whole generation of kids think it's correctly spelled "donut." Sigh.
And, oh, Dear Lord, they're opening four new Krispy Cremes in Philly this summer, with their flagship store RIGHT DOWN THE CORNER FROM ME! If I look out the window from where I'm typing right now, I'll be able to SEE IT! Help! Save me!
