Krispy Kreme announced the launch of its “Strategic Doughnut Reserve” to help customers beat the pump on Wednesdays. The company said that it would be pricing its Original Glazed Dozens at the same price as a gallon of regular gasoline on the said day of the week.
Krispy Kreme would like to make things a bit better for the consumers as gas prices start to soar in the United States. The donut brand is doing this by slashing its prices for an order of dozen Original Glazed donuts.
Starting April 13, Krispy Kreme will offer its original glazed dozen for a regular price gallon of gasoline. This will be every Wednesday only and will run until May 4. According to CNN Business, the donut chain will base the promo cost of its donuts on each Monday’s national average rates.
This week, the national average for a gallon of gas was at $4.11, so this means that this Wednesday, people can avail of a dozen glazed donuts at Krispy Kreme for only $4.11. This is a very good deal because the company’s regular price for this is at least $10.
It was noted that the donut chain brand has often been tying its promotions based on the current events and occasions. For instance, it has given out free donuts to people who will avail of the COVID-19 vaccine as part of its move to encourage people to get vaccinated. Earlier this year, when the Red Cross announced it needed blood donations, the company launched a donut giveaway to blood donors to elevate the blood shortage.
Now, with the rising prices of gas that are partly due to the ongoing war in Ukraine, Krispy Kreme has stepped up once again to at least make things a bit pleasant for people as many are already frustrated with the soaring costs of gasoline.
“While Americans deal with the rising PPG – price per gallon – of gasoline, we’re lowering our PPOG – price per Original Glaze,” Krispy Kreme’s chief marketing officer, Dave Skena, said in a press release. “Inflation and high gasoline prices are serious and forcing families to make tough tradeoffs. We know that despite the high gas prices people have to be out and about anyway.”
He added, “So, for the next several Wednesdays, we hope providing a little doughnut deflation will allow them to share some smiles during a difficult time. A dozen Original Glazed Doughnuts for the price of a gallon of gas will help our fans make midweek a little sweeter for their friends and family.”
