Friday the 13th has a whole reputation — bad luck, broken mirrors, that one horror franchise. And then Krispy Kreme swooped in and made it the best day of September.
Two dozen donuts. Thirteen dollars. One day only. Whoever pitched this in a conference room somewhere deserves a raise. And a donut.
This is the kind of deal that makes you feel like a hero. Show up anywhere with two dozen glazed and suddenly everyone thinks you’re incredible. You spent less than $15. Nobody has to know that.
So what’s the actual deal?
Any 2 dozen donuts for $13 at participating Krispy Kreme locations — today only, Friday, September 13th, 2019. Mix, match, do whatever you want. The only rule is that you have to actually go get them.
Krispy Kreme posted about it on Instagram and people lost their minds in the best way. Which, fair.
Why Friday the 13th, though?
$13 on the 13th is genius branding and you can’t be mad at it. It’s a little silly, a little fun, and it ends with two dozen donuts — which is pretty much the opposite of bad luck.
Krispy Kreme has been doing these kinds of one-day deals for a while now and they always bring the chaos in the best way. I’ve covered a few of their other limited-time drops and the pattern holds: people love them, the deal is real, and the donuts are delicious.
Is this actually a good deal?
Two dozen donuts is 24 donuts. For $13. That’s roughly 54 cents per donut — and a single Krispy Kreme usually runs somewhere between a dollar and change to close to two bucks depending on the type.
So yes. Yes it is a good deal.
What should you do with two dozen donuts?
Bring them somewhere. Show up somewhere unexpected with two dozen Krispy Kremes and watch what happens. People get very happy, very fast. It’s a whole thing.
Or don’t share them. Honestly, that’s between you and whatever you believe about portion sizes. But what do I know?
If you want to feel like the most popular person in any room today — for under $15 — this is your moment. Find your nearest participating Krispy Kreme location and make Friday the 13th actually worth celebrating.
I don’t believe in bad luck. But I do believe in glazed donuts at 54 cents each, and today Krispy Kreme is giving us a very good reason to feel great about a date everyone else is dreading.
Today only. Two dozen. Thirteen dollars. Go.
