We hadn’t been to Krispy Kreme in a while and thought it might be a fun treat this afternoon. We were disappointed that the “hot doughnuts” light wasn’t on, but we still figured we’d get some.
In the drive-thru, we ordered a dozen glazed doughnuts and a coffee. “Sorry sir, but we’re out of glazed doughnuts.” What? This is a Saturday afternoon (3:45ish) — how could they be out of doughnuts?
So I asked the next logical question — “how long until more are ready?”, figuring it would just be a few minutes. Nope, that’ll be an hour and a half! At that point, we simply left and went to the ghetto Sonic up the road.
It kind of reminds me of the McDonald’s near our old condo. I’d often grab breakfast there on my way to work, and twice (about a year apart) they ran out of Coke. I always thought that was crazy, but I think this Krispy Kreme trick is far more insane.
What’s the worst “we’re out of that” that you’ve ever encountered?
