  "account": "Krispy Kreme has introduced a limited-time Halloween promotion featuring a Taz-themed dozen doughnuts. For three days, from October 20-22, customers can purchase any full-priced dozen at the regular price and receive the Taz Chocolate Original Glazed Dozen for just $5. This deal is available in-store, through the drive-thru, or via the Krispy Kreme app for pickup and delivery. The Taz dozen includes nine Chocolate Original Glazed doughnuts and three Taz Chocolate Tornado doughnuts, which are decorated with green icing, chocolate cookie crunch, Halloween sprinkles, and rainbow nonpareils.\n\nThe promotion aims to encourage customers to buy two dozen doughnuts at a bargain, but the reviewer cautions that bringing 24 of these \"bad boys\" into one's home could be a risky endeavor. Despite the temptation, Krispy Kreme is also offering a free doughnut to customers who visit participating stores in a Halloween costume between October 30-31.",
