Free tastes better than one dollar

20070416406

When I lived in Denver, there was a 7-Eleven two blocks from my apartment. In the three years I lived there I had enough Slurpees to make up for the lack of the drink throughout my childhood. Despite their relatively low cost, they always seemed even more exciting every July 11th, for in celebration of their name, that’s 7-Eleven’s annual free 7.11oz Slurpee day.

Until today, that was the only corporate giveaway day that interested me. But now I learned that tomorrow, April 17th, is Ben & Jerry’s annual Free Cone Day. In July I’ll almost certainly be saying free Slurpee day is way cooler than free ice cream day, but right now I can’t think of anything better than free ice cream headaches for everyone!

   Man this is sad. I actually paid for ice cream today, too.

   D’oh!

   Probably better off paying for ice cream than standing in this line in the rain.
