Krispy Kreme is also kicking off a year-long giveaway for free doughnuts.
Customers will receive a "golden ticket" when visiting Krispy Kreme on St. Patrick's Day weekend. The winning tickets - which will number in the thousands - will grant the holders one dozen free doughnuts per month until St. Patrick's Day 2020.
"What could be better than a green O'riginal Glazed doughnut? Not much. But free Original Glazed doughnuts for a year might do the trick. Stop by and maybe you'll end up with both," Dave Skena, Krispy Kreme's chief marketing officer, said in a statement.
