Title: Ben and Jerry's Free Scoop Day
Post by: CPTBadAss on Tue, 08 April 2014, 13:24:37
There's free ice cream to be had today from 12 noon to 8 PM. Ben and Jerry's Free Scoop Day (http://www.benjerry.com/scoop-shops/free-cone-day). Everyone needs more ice cream so you should probably get off GH and go get some right now.

Seriously, those are so good.  I've tried two of them so far and they were both amazing.


Also, I am not going to spend a few bucks to go downtown to the nearest B&J...  :(  I'd much rather walk down the block and just buy a pint from the corner store.  Which I might just do... I'm running dangerously low on ice cream after last night.

Someone should mail us Canadians some B&J...I'm sure it won't melt on its way as it's always freezing cold here!  :p

Ben and Jerry's Flavor? When I went to the factory, they had this tester flavor that was Corn Flakes? It was vanilla with frosted flake bits in it. So ****ing good. But I think my all time favorite flavor was Bonnaroo Buzz.

Whenever B&J is on offer I always get some, because the pints are usually about £5 in the UK.

I have to say my favourite flavours are Blondie Brownie, Baked Alaska, Cookie Dough (obv) and the caramel core one I can't remember the real name.
