If you’re in charge of buying donuts for the office this Friday, you might want to head over to a Krispy Kreme.

To celebrate its 80th year of existence, Krispy Kreme is offering customers one dozen Original Glazed donuts for 80 cents on Friday.

If that sounds too good to be true, it’s because it is. In order for customers to qualify for the 80 cent dozen, they have to first buy another dozen donuts at full price.

A dozen of the Original Glazed donuts costs about $8 and a dozen of other varities costs about $9. So if you take advantage of the deal, you’ll end up paying between 36 and 38 cents per donut, which a great deal.

Krispy Kreme opened on July 13, 1937 in Winston-Salen, North Carolina. There are Krispy Kreme locations in Sacramento, West Sacramento and Roseville.
