In a rare calendar coincidence, Friday the 13th falls on World Kindness Day for the first time since 2020 – and won't happen again until 2037

For one day only Friday, Nov. 13, guests can buy any dozen at regular price and get a dozen Original Glazed® doughnuts for just 13 cents. Keep a dozen and spread the joy with the other.

"Friday the 13th may have an unlucky reputation, but we think it's the perfect day to make someone's day," said Alison Holder, Chief Brand and Product Officer at Krispy Kreme. "Sharing a dozen always has been one of the simplest ways to spread joy. This year, we're making it even easier to keep one, give one and turn an unlucky day into something special."

The 13-cent Original Glazed® dozen is available Friday at participating Krispy Kreme shops across the U.S., in-shop and for pickup or delivery through the Krispy Kreme app and website using promo code 13. Limit one 13-cent dozen per guest, while supplies last.

Guests looking to share something festive can pick from Krispy Kreme's Holiday Seasonal Collection, featuring Hot Cocoa, Sugar Cookie, and Caramel Toffee Cheesecake doughnuts, or enjoy a taste of Thanksgiving with Berry Cobbler, Caramel Pumpkin, Double Chocolate Crumble, and Cinnamon Apple Filled doughnuts. Both collections are available in-shop and through the Krispy Kreme app and website, individually and by the dozen, while supplies last.
