Krispy Kreme Doughnuts: FREE Doughnut on October 31, 2013

Krispy Kreme Doughnuts: Doughnut Costume Party – October 31, 2013Krispy Kreme Doughnuts invites you to their Doughnut Costume Party on Halloween Day – Thursday, October 31, 2013. Wear your costume to a participating United States or Canadian Krispy Kreme Doughnut location and get a FREE doughnut.

Our local Krispy Kreme Doughnuts shop is limiting the FREE doughnut to a Krispy Skreme doughnut: spider web creme-filled, pumpkin (jack-o-lantern) creme-filled, or chocolate-covered sprinkled glazed variety.

Having stopped by for a snack a couple weeks ago to test out the new doughnuts, I can recommend the spider web creme-filled while Miss 3 loved her pumpkin creme-filled, as it has orange frosting on the top.

Whichever doughnut you get to choose, enjoy a special treat and have a safe and sweet Halloween.

Happy Halloween!

Thar she blows, Matey! Krispy Kreme Doughnuts is celebrating National Talk like a Pirate Day.

Did you know that pirates had a code of conduct? Being a female, I could not be a pirate, but I wouldn’t qualify anyway. They went to bed by 8:00 p.m. Arrgh!

Even if you cannot be a pirate, you can still participate in this Talk Like a Pirate Day celebration. Mark your calendars for Thursday, September 19, 2013 to visit a participating Krispy Kreme Doughnuts for two ways to earn FREE original glazed doughnuts.

Talk Like a Pirate

Valid only on September 19, 2012, any landlubber who walks the plank to a participating Krispy Kreme Doughnuts location and chatters like a pirate receives a treasured-reward – a FREE original glazed doughnut.

Dress Like a Pirate

Krispy Kreme: Talk Like a Pirate Day – September 19, 2013To the serious buccaneer who arrives wearing 3 items from the below list goes a FREE dozen original glazed doughnuts. Any 3 of the following pirate items qualifies for dressing like a pirate:

  • Pirate hat
  • Bandana
  • Eye patch
  • Costume hook
  • Pirate shirt
  • Peg-leg
  • Parrot
  • Knickers

Since my daughter is playing a princess pirate in a play, she is getting excited about visiting Krispy Kreme Doughnuts in her costume. 😉 This day was fun for us last year (see the picture on the right). We pulled our outfits together and seized a couple dozen doughnuts. Yum!

Check your compass, map yer course, and head to a participating Krispy Kreme Doughnuts location on Thursday, September 19, 2012. To find a participating location and get a few pirate phrases, visit Krispy Kreme Doughnut’s Talk Like a Pirate newsletter.

Whether you sing a Yo Ho tune, grumble your Arrgh!, or chat a chipper Ahoy!, celebrate with Krispy Kreme Doughnuts on Talk Like a Pirate Day, Thursday, September 19. Are ye on board? Happy pirate scowling!

Question: Are you planning to talk like a pirate, dress like a pirate, or both?

Moe’s Southwest Grill: Free Queso Day – September 19, 2013

Mark your calendars for Thursday, September 19, 2013, because Moe’s Southwest Grill is hosting Free Queso Day.

Each guest will receive a free 6 oz. Queso with no purchase required.

The event will last all day – 11:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m.

To find a participating location near you, check the Moe’s store locator.

Our family enjoys this freebie. I purchase a couple extra bags of tortilla chips as we can make the cups of Queso (thick, white cheese dip) last beyond the chips provided.

In past years, we have found some locations will offer the Queso for free, but charge for the chips. If I have chips at home, then we can just get our Queso to go.

Clear your calendar because you don’t want to miss the generosity of Moe’s Southwest Grill. Enjoy your chips and cheese. Yum!

Happy Free Queso Day!

Subway: $5 Footlong through September 30, 2013

During the month of September, Subway will offer many of their footlong sandwiches for $5. Termed Subtember, this event runs from September 1 – 30, 2013.

Though school is just starting, I like to have options for field trips, hurried nights, long errand days, surprise lunch visits, and just for fun outings.

With numerous Subway restaurants in our area, I may take Subway up on their Subtember deal.

If the weather cools off a bit, this deal is good enough for a family picnic in the park or a gathering with family and friends to watch a good football game.

Happy Subtember!
