National Doughnut Day: Get 2 free Krispy Kreme treats — if you’re vaccinated against COVID:
Krispy Kreme has been offering a free “Original Glazed” doughnut every day through the end of the year to vaccinated customers who bring their COVID-19 vaccination cards into participating stores. And in the roughly two months since the chain rolled out this free-doughnut-a-day promotion, Krispy Kreme has already given away a gut-busting 1.5 million doughnuts, the company revealed on Tuesday.
Krispy Kreme was not immediately available for comment. But Dave Skena, the North Carolina company’s chief marketing officer, told CNN Business that “We’re on our way to giving away many millions of doughnuts” as more people get vaccinated. “That makes us very happy!” The doughnut maker is not the only brand tempting anyone still on the fence about getting vaccinated by offering a sweet reward for rolling up their sleeves. Breweries across the country are pouring free beer with “shots and a chaser” specials, and several marijuana dispensaries are giving out free rolled joints or cannabis treats. Ride-share companies Lyft LYFT, -3.66% and Uber UBER, -4.11% are also providing free trips to vaccination centers.
