If you're looking for a free sweet treat this weekend, Krispy Kreme may be the destination for you.
The doughnut chain unveiled a new collection of Barbie-themed doughnuts earlier this week in celebration of the doll's 65th birthday, and as part of the promotion the company is also giving away free doughnuts.
Four all-new doughnuts featuring "unique designs and fabulous flavors inspired by Barbie" are available at participating shops for a limited time.
All customers who wear pink and visit a participating Krispy Kreme shop on Saturday, Sept. 7 can get a free Original Glazed doughnut, limit one per customer in-shop and via drive-thru only, according to a news release from Krispy Kreme.
