FREE Donuts in KC :: National Donut Day 2011

Looking for a tasty Friday outing with the kids? Celebrate National Donut Day on Friday June 3, 2011 at several metro area donut shops. You'll have the chance to get a FREE donut this Friday! Your kids will give you lovies all day, I am sure and will be sugared up to boot!

Here's the scoop:

LaMar’s is offering one free donut (anything with a hole) to each guest, with no purchase necessary. Guests will have the option of donating the cost of a donut, or more, to the Make-A-Wish Foundation to benefit children with life-threatening illnesses.

Krispy Kreme is once again giving each guest who visits a participating location on National Doughnut Day (June 3, 2011) one FREE doughnut of any variety. No purchase is necessary to redeem the offer.

Dunkin' Donut, Get 1 FREE donut with your drink purchase! Don't miss out - Friday only!

Price Chopper - Stop by the bakery at Price Chopper Friday, June 3 for a free glazed donut from 6-9am. Plus, pick up a half-dozen glazed donuts for just $1.99!

National Donut Day is a holiday that started back in 1938 as a fundraiser for the Chicago Salvation Army. Today, it celebrates the creation of the donut and will probably very soon become one of my kids' favorite holidays! Mark your calendars because National Donut Day is held on the first Friday of every June. A special thanks to all of our Kansas City donut shops who are participating! We moms, love it!

Score FREE Noodles in KC

 
Our friends at Noodles & Company are hosting a candy swap tomorrow, Sunday November 7th at all area metro locations.  How does it work?

Kids 12 and under can trade a bowl full (or so) of candy for a small bowl of FREE Noodles. The candy will be donated to Operation Gratitude, an organization that sends care packages to the troops overseas.

Now, I don't know about you, but that sounds like a win/win all the way around! My kids LOVE the buttered noodles and the mac-n-cheese at Noodles & Company.  So, get your kids to empty out their candy buckets and fill their tummies with some good stuff!  Enjoy!
