America’s best cookie shop is baking up some sweet deals for National Cookie Day — and thereafter.

On Monday, Dec. 4, all three Please & Thank You locations in Derby City will offer buy one, get one free cookies. The perk applies not just to its famous gooey chocolate chip cookie, but peanut butter cream pies, oatmeal cream pies, and ice sugar cookies too.

Fun fact: It took owner Brook Vaughn 2+ years to perfect the nationally lauded chocolate chip cookie, which are now available on Amazon.

On the first day of Christmas Please & Thank gave to me… Following the day of free treats, the coffee shop will begin its 12 Days of Christmas countdown on Wednesday, Dec. 13. Tune into the shop’s social media for updates on deals like $35 coffee gift boxes + 50% off merch.

Do you know how Please & Thank You’s cookies travel around town? In incredi-dough style, of course. Meet the cookie machine.
