You can get a free Krispy Kreme doughnut on May 7 for Real ID deadline: Here's how
You can get a free Krispy Kreme doughnut on May 7 for Real ID deadline: Here's how Show Caption Hide Caption REAL ID guide: What it is and how to get yours REAL ID is becoming the nationwide standard for state-issued identification. Don't wait. Learn how to get yours. If you are stressed about having to get your REAL ID on May 7, Krispy Kreme might have something to help you take the edge off. The doughnut chain announced last week it will give all guests one free Original Glazed doughnut all day in-shop or via drive-thru at participating shops on Wednesday, May 7. There is a limit of one per guest and no purchase, or ID, is necessary to get your free doughnut. 'The DMV can be stressful enough in normal times, but we know May 7 is going to be 'next level' stress for many Americans trying to get their REAL ID,' said Dave Skena, Chief Growth Officer of Krispy Kreme, in a news release. 'So, we're going to keep this simple. Come by on May 7 and have a free Original Glazed doughnut on us, no REAL ID – or any ID – required,' Skena said in the release. REAL ID deadline arrives after 20 years The REAL ID deadline comes 20 years after the 2005 REAL ID Act passed amid other increasingly tight security measures following 9/11. The act established that Americans would need identification that met "minimum security standards for state-issued driver's licenses and identification cards." Actual implementation of the regulations ultimately took two decades, hitting several road bumps along the way. Now that enforcement is soon to begin, however, those who do not secure a compliant ID in time will soon be unable to enter federal facilities or board domestic flights.
