National Donut Day Deals: 16 Delicious Discounts That Will Satisfy Your Sweet Tooth for Less
From Dunkin' to Sheetz, find out how you can score free and discounted donuts to enjoy
In 1938, the Salvation Army established the first National Donut Day in Chicago as a tribute to the women (called “Doughnut Lassies”) who served donuts and other goodies to soldiers during World War I. Since then, the tasty holiday has expanded and is now celebrated around the country on the first Friday of June. To mark the occasion, many popular chain donut shops and restaurants want to give everyone a chance to enjoy a tasty treat. Keep reading to find out what deals are available this year so you can celebrate National Donut Day for less!
