Free Ice Cream (Ben & Jerry's)

Tue Apr 29, 2008 8:19 pm

Just a reminder to anyone who lives in the US...

Don't forget today is Free Cone Day at Ben & Jerry's! I just went for a looong walk to the shop downtown and got my free Phish Food cone. :D

You can find participating stores here, by making sure to check the "participate in free cone day" option. I'm lucky there's one not too far away from me.

I'm not sure if there's free scoops for places outside the US or Canada, but yeah.

Enjoy the free ice cream!

OMG I had no idea this was going on! Your Ben/Jerry's is the same as mine, so is there a really long line?

I have *no* idea. I'm in the med center now.
We might be trying to go later tonight with a group of friends - like around 9ish. It'll probably be *crazy* then.

I totally forgot that today was the day! Shucks... I did have time earlier to go and get some free ice cream. I've never had Ben and Jerry's before.

I lucked out, the line at mine wasn't too long. They were pretty quick and efficient too, so I only waited 5 or 10 minutes.

Aw. :( We don't have one near us. The only Ben & Jerry's I've seen is the one on the thruway. lol

Aww, sad! :(
I'm hoping I get to go, but it'll depend on how my husband's final project is going.
I still say there's nothing like a nice ice cream break for studying... :P

:o There's entire ben & jerry's shops?

I never knew that. Gosh I gotta get out of here more often. But enjoy your free ice cream. :D

Ditto. I can buy the ice cream at Kroger but that's it.

It wasn't just in the US.

I had 4 free ice creams. Went to the 3 in Leicester Square once each, and then went back to one for a second time. Then felt sick.
It was ace, they were giving massive 'scoops' that were like 2 or 3!

I've never seen an actual Ben & Jerry's store - but they sell it in the supermarkets. That's really cool though!! I love B&J :)

I went to mine (the one on Bay Area) and there was a decent sized line. I thought the event ended at 8 though :/
