Today (July 14), to celebrate Krispy Kreme’s 80th birthday, the doughnut chain is offering a dozen of their Original Glazed Doughnuts for 80 cents when you buy another dozen at the regular price.

That’s a lot of doughnuts. What can you do with 24 of them? Since there are 24, you could eat one at every hour in a day. Of course, I (and every doctor in the world) wouldn’t recommend that. You could also take them to work to bribe your co-workers into doing some of your tasks for you. Or you could just stand at a random busy street corner and offer a free doughnut in return for a hug.

The offer is available only at participating Krispy Kreme locations. It’s not valid with any other offers.

To celebrate its 90th birthday, 7-Eleven will be giving away small Slurpee drinks from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. today (July 11).

The convenience store chain started giving away free Slurpee drinks on 7-Eleven Day back in 2002, when the retailer celebrated its 75th birthday. 7-Eleven estimates will it give away 9 million free Slurpee drinks today.

The free small Slurpee offer is good at participating locations, while supplies last.

Happy 56th Birthday, Wienerschnitzel!

To celebrate, the long-named hot dog chain will be selling Original Mustard Hot Dogs and Chili Dogs for just 56 cents today (July 11) at participating locations.

The Original Mustard Hot Dog features a grilled original Wienerschnitzel Hot Dog in a steamed bun that’s topped with French’s mustard. The Chili Dog is a grilled original hot dog in a steamed bun topped with Wienerschnitzel’s chili.

Offer is limited to 10 per guest while supplies last and does not include all beef hot dogs. No substitutions. Cheese is extra.

Today is Cow Appreciation Day.

If that sounds like a made up holiday devised by marketing people, you’re absolutely correct. But it’s a made up holiday devised by marketing people to get you free Chick-fil-A food.

Here’s how it works. If you’re an adult, walk into any Chick-fil-A location dressed in any type of cow attire and you can receive a free entree. Children will receive a free Kid’s Meal for dressing up like a cow.

Moo!

Throughout July, Burger King is offering its Classic Grilled Dog for 79 cents.

The menu item features a flame-grilled, 100 percent beef hot dog topped with ketchup, mustard, chopped onion, and relish on a fluffy baked bun. We reviewed it back in 2015.

The offer is available until 7/31/2017 at participating locations or while supplies last.
