Krispy Kreme's birthday discount is numerically tied to its founding in 1937—88 years of hot, fresh, melt-in-your-mouth doughnuts. Its founder, Vernon Rudolph, originally slung doughnuts out of a North Carolina shop window, sending the scent of fresh yeast-raised treats wafting through the streets and drawing crowds.
