How To Get A Dozen Krispy Kreme Doughnuts For 13¢ On Friday The 13th

Krispy Kreme is constantly pouring out deals. Just last month, the doughnut chain was selling a dozen doughnuts for $2 for Labor Day weekend, and before that, they were selling 87¢ glazed doughnuts. Krispy Kreme will use any holiday as an excuse to offer its customers something cheap and sweet. They even have discounts for graduates every single year. Krispy Kreme is truly so generous. The deals just do not stop coming. Luckily, there’s a spooky holiday coming up tomorrow: Friday the 13th. Although this day is known as rather superstitious, Krispy Kreme is not letting that stop it from offering customers a scary cheap offer. 

What is the Friday the 13th deal?

This may be one of Krispy Kreme’s cheapest deals. Customers can get a dozen original glazed doughnuts for only 13¢ this Friday the 13th. That’s so cheap it’s almost spooky. There’s a catch though: customers must first purchase a regular priced dozen of doughnuts or a 16-pack of minis in order to get the 13¢ for a dozen deal. Krispy Kreme can’t just give away doughnuts all the time. Is it really a catch though? You’ll be walking home with more than a dozen doughnuts for practically the price of one. In fact, 13¢ is almost equivalent to zero, so you’re getting a dozen doughnuts for basically nothing!

This Friday the 13th, luck is on your side! Trade in superstition for sweetness and get an Original Glazed® Dozen for just $0.13 when you buy any dozen! Offer available 9/13 only at participating U.S. Krispy Kreme shops only and is subject to product availability. See full terms at www.krispykreme.com/offers/fridaythe13th

To access the deal, customers must use the promo code “13,” in honor of the spooky date. The code can be used in-person or online if you order via the website or app. 

While you’re at Krispy Kreme, you might as well pick up a limited edition Barbie themed doughnut. For the iconic doll’s 65th anniversary, Krispy Kreme released four brand new doughnuts, each featuring a Barbie design. Since you got a (practically) free dozen, you have an excuse to splurge on some bright pink doughnuts. The Barbie doughnuts are available until September 15, so tomorrow is the perfect time to snag some!

If you’re in the mood for an additional sweet treat, head over to Wendy’s for their “Frosty” the 13th deal. Wendy’s rewards members can get a free order of Hot & Crispy Fries with any in-app purchase, as well as a $1 Frosty. Pair it with some 13¢ doughnuts and you have the ultimate Friday the 13th meal.

Who said Friday the 13th was supposed to be unlucky? A trip to Krispy Kreme, a dozen glazed doughnuts for 13¢, and some Barbie doughnuts sounds super lucky to me.
