Two of the nation’s most well-known retailers are gearing up for National Donut Day on June 5.
At Irving, Texas-based 7-Eleven, 7Rewards and Speedy Rewards members at participating 7-Eleven, Speedway and Stripes stores nationwide can grab classic glazed donuts for 50 cents each on the day.
Additionally, 7-Select Mini Donut packs — which are bite-sized yellow cake donuts coated in chocolate, cinnamon sugar, toasted coconut crunch or powdered sugar — are available for just $1.
“Sometimes the best celebrations are the simplest ones, like a fresh donut and a great deal,” said Brandon Brown, senior vice president, fresh foods and beverages at 7-Eleven. “National Donut Day gives customers a fun reason to treat themselves, and these offers make every coffee run, snack stop or midday break a little sweeter.”
“With bakery-fresh favorites, limited-time savings and plenty of reasons to celebrate, 7-Eleven is making National Donut Day even more delicious, one glazed bite at a time,” the retailer noted in a statement.
In addition to its National Donut Day deals, 7-Eleven also announced the launch of its signature community outreach program, Operation Chill.
Now in its 31st year, Operation Chill provides participating law enforcement agencies with coupons officers can share with kids they see performing good deeds or demonstrating positive behavior. Each coupon is redeemable for a free small Slurpee drink at participating 7-Eleven, Speedway and Stripes store locations nationwide.
“Operation Chill represents more than a moment of recognition — it reflects our ongoing commitment to fostering trust, strengthening community relationships and encouraging positive engagement,” said Treasa Bowers, executive vice president, chief people and sustainability officer at 7-Eleven. “For over three decades, this program has demonstrated how meaningful interactions can help bridge gaps, reinforce positive behavior and support stronger, more connected communities.”
Meanwhile at Altoona, Pa.-based Sheetz, the chain is offering customers one free donut with any food or beverage purchase of $5 or more from June 5-9.
The promotion, which applies to any flavored donut in the bakery case, is valid at all of Sheetz’s 830-plus locations and can be redeemed by adding it under the OFFERZ tab on the Sheetz app. The offer is valid while the donuts are available and is limited to one per customer.
Sheetz customers can choose from a variety of flavors, including Peanut Butter Filled, Chocolate Iced Custard Filling, Cherry Fritter, Blueberry Cake, Chocolate Cake, Vanilla Iced Sprinkle Ring, Chocolate Iced Ring and Glazed Ring donuts.
