Today, Friday June 7, 2013, is National Donut Day! 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 US stores. For more information, see their Facebook page here. To find a location near you, click here.
  • Krispy Kreme: Free doughnut at participating Krispy Kreme stores, no purchase necessary. Limit 1 per person. For more information, click here. To find a location near you, click here. I recommend calling ahead of time to confirm participation. They have locations in DC, Alexandria VA, Fredericksburg VA, & Rockville MD.
  • Walmart: Last year they offered a free donut between 9:00am – 11:00am, but unfortunately it doesn’t look like they’re offering the same deal again this year.
  • Fractured Prune: Select locations are offering free donut hole samples (no purchase necessary) in honor of National Donut Day. The Frederick MD location is participating from 6:30am – 2:00 pm today, June 7, 2013. For more info, click here. 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.
  • Lamar Donuts: Free gourmet donut, 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.
  • Tim Hortons: Free Donut with any purchase, when you “like” their Facebook page and print off this coupon. Valid only on June 7, 2013. Unfortunately they do not have restaurants here in the DC area, but do have a location in Norfolk, VA and a variety of stores in 10 states across the Northeast & Midwest. To find a location near you, click here.
