National Cookie Day is upon us, and there’s no better excuse to indulge in something warm, gooey, and straight from the oven.
Whether you prefer a classic chocolate chip, a soft-baked sugar cookie, or something loaded with festive flavours, today is all about giving in to that sweet tooth.
And while plenty of chains are rolling out promotions on cookie-adjacent treats, a handful of brands are going all-in with proper deals and genuine freebies.
We’ve rounded up the standout offers so you can celebrate the holiday the way it was meant to be celebrated — with a cookie in hand.
Insomnia Cookies
In honor of National Cookie Day, Insomnia Cookies is offering one Free Classic Cookie to customers, with the option of buying a Deluxe Cookie for only a dollar.
Plus, early birds have even more incentive to head to Insomnia Cookies when doors open. The chain is giving away a free Snowball Classic — a buttercream-filled, powdered-sugar-dusted cookie finished with a touch of edible glitter — to the first customers in line. And if you happen to unwrap one of the limited-edition versions with a purple buttercream centre, you’ll score the ultimate prize: a year’s supply of free cookies from the brand.
Dunkin’ Donuts
Dunkin’ has announced a slew of new cookie-inspired beverages to celebrate the occasion, such as the Cookie Butter Cloud Latte with Cookie Butter Cold Foam.
Other new drinks include the Cookie Butter Cold Brew, the Cookie Butter Shakin’ Espresso and the Cookie Butter Oat Iced Chai Latte.
To keep the celebration going, Dunkin’ Rewards members earn triple points on all espresso beverages in honor of National Cookie Day today.
Crumbl
Crumbl is celebrating with a nod to the viral “67” slang term. When customers buy a six-pack of cookies in Crumbl stores December 4, they will get their seventh item for free.
