65 Hour Wait For 1,236 Krispy Kreme Doughnuts

Krispy Kreme Malaysia is finally open!

Thei first flagship store in Berjaya Times Square was opened at 10am yesterday and part of their opening promotion was to offer a dozen of fresh Krispy Kreme Original Glazed Doughnuts per week for up to a year, 26 weeks and 13 weeks respectively to their first 3 customers.

Guess the lengths people would go through just to get this – Waiting and camping outside Krispy Kreme for a full 65 hours!

When Joey Tham and her friends heard about Kripsy Kreme Doughnuts’s offer of a year’s supply for the first customer at its flagship outlet’s inaugural opening at Berjaya Times Square, they decided to give their best shot.

Tham and her friends, Alex Leong, Bilal Ahmee, Vincent Chen, Liang Jo Yi and Nicholas Yap, all 17, all from Ulu Langat then put into action a plan to win.

The plan led to them camping in front of the store for 65 hours since 5pm last Friday, fighting off mosquitoes at night and bearing the heat during the day and even missing their baths, — taking turns to zealously guard their position at the head of the queue while waiting for the iconic Hot Light to be turned on for the first time today.
