January 16, 200521 yr Any word on whether the Marlins and Krispy Kreme will be joining forces again this season for their "Dozen hits for Dozen donuts" promotion? I haven't heard anything about that! :drool
January 16, 200521 yr I sat out in left field for the entire season with my Doughnut meter so it better be back next year
January 16, 200521 yr There is one just down the street from my father's house in Tamarac Is there one near 595? I had this strange feeling that there was one off of 84. Anywho, I'd take Dunkin Donuts over Krispy Kreme anyday.
January 16, 200521 yr It would be better if there were Krispy Kreme shops in Dade county... 656965[/snapback] Miami 590 N.E. 167Th Str.

January 16, 200521 yr The company is being investigated by the SEC for (stock) price and accounting irregularities, and their market cap has fallen dramatically. I suspect the days of donuts for hits are over at KK.
January 16, 200521 yr Dunkin' Donuts may be an option however....and they have many more stores in Florida.
January 16, 200521 yr But Dunkin Donuts has nothing to gain by venturing into a partnership with the Marlins. Krispy Kreme was a struggling shop which needed the exposure. Dunkin' Donuts is doing very well and doesn't need the additional face time. I personally don't see this scenerio happening.

January 16, 200521 yr For once I have an inside source about something-and its about doughnuts. There is planned to be a Krispy Kreme in South Miami where Schlotsky's Deli is going out on South Dixie Highway and 62 Avenue.

January 16, 200521 yr I go to the one on Millenia here in Orlando. Got to love those donuts, if eat one u cant stop.
January 16, 200521 yr Wow, I went with my whole family to a game last year where there were twelve hits. So we ended up getting 60 doughnuts. Just as a warning, it is never a good idea to have 60 doughnuts at the same time. :plain

I don't think there are any Dade county ones, but you can find one inside of a gas station I'm sure.

January 16, 200521 yr Service stations will not honor the promotion even though they sell Krispy Kreme products because the promotion is only for Kripsy Kreme Owned-and-Operated stores in Miami-Dade, Broward, and Palm Beach Counties.
January 16, 200521 yr I love krispy kreme donuts! I have so many so many times. Krispy Kreme would probably join with the Marlins again for this upcoming season. So many people hear about krispy kreme because of the Marlins and they go there even when they can't get donuts for free. Krispy kreme likes it when the Marlins get 12 hits or more so everyone will go there and try out their product, and so maybe they will buy more. Krispy kreme feeds off of the Marlins and gains from them. Krispy kreme gets mentioned even when they don't get 12 hits! Whenever they get close you hear about it, and whenever they get 12 hits you can read about it. Krispy kreme has really become a lot more popular because of the Marlins. The Marlins have really helped it out. And it takes almost nothing to make a donut, and at the end of the day you won't believe how many donuts krispy kreme throws away! They throw away so many donuts! So giving donuts to so many people won't hurt them at all. They're losing barely any money when they give a dozen donuts to thousands of fans. And in the end, they're actually gaining money, because of all the people that find out about it. Krispy kreme was a great promotion, and it should still go on this next year.
January 16, 200521 yr I agree Marlins. The Royals also did the promotion with Krispy Kreme for the 2003 and 2004 seasons.
January 16, 200521 yr I agree Marlins. The Royals also did the promotion with Krispy Kreme for the 2003 and 2004 seasons. 657131[/snapback] o cool! Too bad I never benefited from it though. :confused Everytime I went to the game they never got 12 hits, and there were a few times when I was going to go to the game, but didn't go in the end, and they got 12 hits. :confused Anyways, whenever they would get 12 hits I would have krispy kreme the next morning, because a few people atleast go to every game in my school. So I guess I'm still happy... And it was really smart to do it with Krispy Kreme and not another place like Dunkin Donuts...etc. Because Krispy Kreme is kosher, and there are many fans down here in Miami that wouldn't go get the donuts if they were from Dunkin Donuts because they're not kosher. So smart move. And on Krispy Kreme throwing away donuts: They throw away donuts that are even just expired by 1 day! Seriously, I would take a donut that's expired by 1 day! So giving away donuts is of to no problem for them.
January 16, 200521 yr But Dunkin Donuts has nothing to gain by venturing into a partnership with the Marlins. Krispy Kreme was a struggling shop which needed the exposure. Dunkin' Donuts is doing very well and doesn't need the additional face time. I personally don't see this scenerio happening. 657006[/snapback] You make it sound like Krispy Kreme was some upstart business just trying to keep from going under. That couldn't be farther from the truth. Krispy Kreme has been around since 1937(started in Winston-Salem, NC :thumbsup) and has locations all over the world. KK's stock price last March was around 40 bucks. Hardly struggling when they signed the deal. The stock price now is at 8 bucks but I wouldn't be surprised if they brought the promotion back.
January 16, 200521 yr But Dunkin Donuts has nothing to gain by venturing into a partnership with the Marlins. 657006[/snapback] Not true. Any shop would gain by a professional baseball team promoting their shop by almost every game.
January 16, 200521 yr hehe, that's how my nickname came up. Was in a game where JP got the 12th hit so therefore i must honor Pierre by giving myself the nickname "KrispyJP". Beautiful story I know
