Leap Day deals 2020: Where to get discounts on food, flights, and hotels
There’s an extra day in 2020 and some retailers and companies want you to make the most out of the additional 24 hours by offering special deals that come along only once every four years.
Yahoo Money rounded up the best deals and contests that you can take advantage of on Sat., Feb. 29.
Food and drinks
Krispy Kreme - On Feb. 29, Krispy Kreme will deliver five dozen free original glazed doughnuts to new parents of Leap Day babies and hospital staff who helped deliver them, as long as they are located within 10 miles of participating Krispy Kreme locations.
To claim the offer, hospital staff and parents of Leap Day newborns can post on Instagram or Twitter tagging @KrispyKreme using the #KrispyKremeSpecialDelivery.
