National Doughnut Day is coming up tomorrow Friday, June 3rd, 2011! Some of the big chains are offering a free doughnut or special promotion to celebrate:

  • Dunkin’ Donuts: Free donut with any beverage purchase at participating stores. For more information, see their Facebook event page here. To find a location near you, click here. I recommend calling ahead of time to confirm participation.
  • Krispy Kreme: Free doughnut at participating Krispy Kreme stores, no purchase necessary. For more information, click here. I recommend calling ahead of time to confirm participation.
  • Fractured Prune: Last year select locations offered a free donut with any beverage purchase (not including canned beverages) in honor of National Donut Day. However, I have not been able to confirm whether they are offering this promotion again. To find a location near you, click here (locations are in DE, MD, OH & PA… they used to have No. VA. locations, but unfortunately they closed a few years ago). Please call to confirm participation at your local store, since this promotion is not listed on their website, but was held last year and in 2009 on Facebook for multiple locations.
  • Lamar Donuts: Free gourmet donut with a hole, no purchase necessary. For more information, click here. To find a location near you, click here (only located in AL, AZ, CO, KS, MO, NE – sadly no DC area shops). I recommend calling ahead of time to confirm participation.
