Instead of honoring Iron Man, Super Man, Thor, or any other heroic characters, this very special day is a celebration of everyday heroes—especially those willing to pick up some donuts for family, friends, and assorted sidekicks. All day on Thursday, customers at participating Krispy Kreme locations get a dozen free donuts when they purchase a dozen. "It's a sweet way to celebrate the Super Heroes in your life!" Krispy Kreme explains, while also noting: "Costumes are not required, just super encouraged." Looking a little further ahead, there's another buy-one-get-one-free promotion to put on your radar, at least if there's an educator in your family. On Tuesday, May 3, [Chipotle](http://www.chipotle.com/teacherappreciation) is participating in Teach Appreciation Day by giving all teachers, faculty, and staff one free burrito, bowl, or salad when they buy one at regular price, from 3 p.m. until closing. Bring in your work ID to snag the deal. ```json { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@graph": [ { "@type": "BreadcrumbList", "@id": "https://money.com/krispy-kreme-dozen-free-donuts/#breadcrumb", "itemListElement": [ { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 1, "name": "Home", "item": "https://money.com" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 2, "name": "Lifestyle", "item": "https://money.com/lifestyle/" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 3, "name": "Restaurants", "item": "https://money.com/restaurants/" }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 4, "name": "How to Get a Dozen Free Krispy Kreme Donuts on National Superhero Day" } ] }, { "@type": "WebSite", "@id": "https://money.com/#website", "url": "https://money.com", "name": "Money", "publisher": { "@id": "https://money.com/#organization" } }, { "@type": "WebPage", "@id": "https://money.com/krispy-kreme-dozen-free-donuts/#webpage", "url": "https://money.com/krispy-kreme-dozen-free-donuts/", "name": "How to Get a Dozen Free Krispy Kreme Donuts on National Superhero Day", "isPartOf": { "@id": "https://money.com/#website" }, "datePublished": "2016-04-27T19:23:23.000Z", "mainEntity": { "@id": "https://money.com/krispy-kreme-dozen-free-donuts/" }, "inLanguage": "en-US", "breadcrumb": { "@id": "https://money.com/krispy-kreme-dozen-free-donuts/#breadcrumb" }, "dateModified": "2024-05-16T11:07:18.000Z" }, { "@type": "Article", "headline": "How to Get a Dozen Free Krispy Kreme Donuts on National Superhero Day", "articleSection": "Lifestyle", "image": [ { "@type": "ImageObject", "url": "https://img.money.com/2016/04/160427_em_krispykreme.jpg", "width": 4256, "height": 2832, "caption": "160427_EM_KrispyKreme" } ], "author": [ { "@type": "Person", "name": "Brad Tuttle", "url": "https://money.com/author/brad-tuttle/", "@id": "https://money.com/author/brad-tuttle/#author", "description": "Brad Tuttle is a former senior editor at Money with over 10 years’ experience covering a vast number of personal finance topics, including careers, cars, travel, budgeting, investing, insurance, credit cards, consumer psychology, real estate, banking, and shopping and deals.\r\n\r\n", "image": "https://img.money.com/2014/01/Brad-Tuttle.png?w=226&h=247&crop=1", "alumniOf": "Columbia University School of Journalism, MS", "sameAs": [ "https://twitter.com/bradrtuttle", "https://linkedin.com/in/brad-tuttle-834b225" ] } ], "publisher": "https://money.com/#organization", "datePublished": "2016-04-27T19:23:23.000Z", "description": "Thursday, April 18, is National Superhero Day at Krispy Kreme, when any customer who purchases a dozen donuts gets another dozen doughnuts free.", "abstract": "Thursday, April 18, is National Superhero Day at Krispy Kreme, when any customer who purchases a dozen donuts gets another dozen doughnuts free.", "@id": "https://money.com/krispy-kreme-dozen-free-donuts/", "inLanguage": "en-US", "dateModified": "2024-05-16T11:07:18.000Z", "wordCount": 165, "keywords": [ "deals", "Fast Food", "freebies", "pubdesk" ], "about": [ { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Lifestyle", "sameAs": [ "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lifestyle" ] }, { "@type": "Thing", "name": "Restaurant", "sameAs": [ "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restaurant" ] } ] } ] } ```
