FRIDAY IS NATIONAL DOUGHNUT DAY!

MILWAUKEE - Every year, the first Friday in June is National Doughnut Day, which can mean only one thing: free doughnuts.

Believe it or not, Doughnut Day was first created by The Salvation Army in 1938 to honor those of their members who served doughnuts to soldiers during World War I.

Here are the places you can get free doughnuts, doughnut specials or extra doughnuts on Friday in the Milwaukee area:

Dunkin Donuts, various locations: Get one free doughnut with the purchase of any beverage.

Krispy Kreme, various locations: Every customer gets a choice of any free doughnut on Friday, June 3, no purchase necessary.

Grebe's Bakery, 5132 W. Lincoln Ave. West Allis: Free doughnut with any purchase of $0.79 or more. One free doughnut per purchase, per customer. While supplies last.

Holey Moley Coffee and Doughnuts, 316 N. Milwaukee St.: Is offering something, but the mystery will have to wait until the big day.
