Ice Cream!
What's better than ice-cream on a Spring day?
Free ice-cream on a Spring day! I don't understand it, but Ben & Jerry's (238 Queen W, and 2018 Queen E) is once again giving away free ice-cream tomorrow, April 25th.
I made sure to attend last year, and its a wonderful thing. As far as I could tell, there's no catch: you queue up (get there early as waits can get long), choose a flavour, tell them to put it in a cone or a cup, and then walk away with your ice-cream. Still hungry? Queue up again!
This year, I think I'm going to try either the 'Apple-y Ever After' or the 'Coffee Coffee BuzzBuzzBuzz' depending on the weather.

I went. Yay! Got chocolate chip cookie dough. They didn't ask me if I wanted a cone, though, and I ended up with a cup. Not to gripe on free ice cream or anything, but cups are the worst way to enjoy it! Oh well, it was still delicious, fun and free. Whee :)
not to burst anyone's bubble... but you understand that the free ice cream is to encourage you to donate what you would have paid for it to children's wish foundation, right?
I realised that when I got there, and hadn't brought any cash with me. Would have been nice to be alerted to this beforehand!
Forget Ben & Jerry's. Theres a huge ICE CREAM WAREHOUSE SALE that goes on twice a year at Vital Link Ice Cream. They have all your favourite Nestle & Haagen-Dazs ice creams up to 50% off the regular price. I just found the posting for it on shoestringshopping.com Check it out! There's a coupon attached too. It's happening from Thurs. May 25 to Sun. May 28, 2006. This is the best sale ever. You won't regret it.
