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
To 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.
