Pandemic freebies and discounts

This pandemic can be likened to a prolonged case of food poisoning caused by the sweet and sour dish from hell, with a huge emphasis on the sour and hell. Think sudden onset vomiting, bloody diarrhea, severe abdominal cramping, and spiking fevers with chills. Plus anosmia and some fatalities. But for the sake of our sanity, let’s take step back and focus on the sweet for just a moment. Every Monday through May 12th, Krispy Kreme is offering us a free dozen of their original glazed donuts. McDonalds is providing a free meal to health care workers and first responders through May 5th. Jennifer Lin, head and neck surgery, notified me that The North Face is offering a 50% discount to health care workers. The verification process takes a couple of minutes and gives you a promo code for a one time purchase to be redeemed before December 31st. Note: those who routinely purchase items at full retail should know that anything you buy at half-price looks and feels twice as good. And Crocs is donating a pair of its funky shoes to people on the front lines (though there is a daily limit to what they give).
