Happy National Donut Day!  Here’s how to score a free one!  Both of America’s top two donut shops have deals.

Krispy Kreme is handing out free donuts, no questions asked.  Just pop in and snag a free one.  You don’t have to buy anything.

Dunkin’ has a deal too, but you have to buy coffee or some other beverage.  Purchase a drink, and you get one “classic” donut for free.  That includes things like glazed, chocolate frosted, and jelly donuts.  Just no specialty items.

National Donut Day was started in 1938 by The Salvation Army as a fundraising thing to honor “Donut Lassies” who handed them out to soldiers in World War One.

A recent survey found only 4% of Americans don’t like donuts, and 1% HATE them.  Our favorite types are glazed, Boston cream, chocolate frosted, jelly, and chocolate cake.
