This Friday the 13th doesn't have to be unlucky.
Krispy Kreme is offering a sweet deal for the third and final Friday the 13th of 2026, which also happens to fall on World Kindness Day. Guests can get a dozen original glazed donuts for just 13 cents after purchasing a dozen at regular price on Friday, Nov. 13, according to the doughnut chain.
The offer can be redeemed in-shop and for pickup or delivery through the Krispy Kreme app and website using promo code 13. There is a limit of one 13-cent dozen per guest, while supplies last, the company said in a news release.
"Friday the 13th may have an unlucky reputation, but we think it's the perfect day to make someone's day," said Alison Holder, chief brand and product officer at Krispy Kreme, in the news
release. "Sharing a dozen always has been one of the simplest ways to spread joy. This year, we're making it even easier to keep one, give one and turn an unlucky day into something special."

The collection is available beginning Nov. 12 in-shop and for pickup or delivery via Krispy Kreme's app and website, individually and by the dozen, while supplies last. The collection is available through Thanksgiving Day, according to Krispy Kreme.
Other Friday the 13th Food deals
In addition to Krispy Kreme, Chipotle is also offering customers a deal on Friday, Nov. 13.
On Nov. 13, customers with tattoos who visit Chipotle from 3 p.m. to 4 p.m. local time can buy one entree and get another for free, according to an announcement Chipotle made on Monday, Nov. 9. The "Tatted Like a Chipotle Bag" BOGO offer will be available to anyone with permanent tattoos, temporary tattoos or even something drawn on.
The fast-casual restaurant offered the same deal earlier this year on Friday, March 13, the previous Friday the 13th that took place in 2026, and it helped create "the highest single-day sales in company history," according to a news release.
"Friday the 13th gives our tattooed fans a chance to show off their favorite ink and get rewarded for it," Stephanie Perdue, Chipotle's senior vice president of brand marketing, said in a statement published online. "Every tattoo has a story, and this BOGO gives fans a fun way to share theirs."
Paris Baguette is also offering PB Rewards members a pastry for just 13 cents with any purchase on Friday the 13th.
