Okay, so there is no free beer. But now that I have your attention, here's the next-best thing:
Cheap Ice Cream!
Today from 5PM til 10PM, Baskin Robbins is offering scoops for $0.31. It's part of a promotion to raise money for the Fallen Firefighters Foundation, which sounds like a great (and delightfully alliterative) cause.
So get out there and do your part!
Thanks to the lovely and talented Rachel for this tip.
Update: Is it just me, or did old-school keyboards have the ¢ (cent) symbol? I'm pretty sure of it... I think it's a conspiracy to cover up the effects of inflation. The Man (not to be confused with The Boy) had the ¢ symbol removed from our keyboards so we'll think in terms of dollars. Now you have to go into the extended symbol set to find ¢. Well I'm bucking the trend: Baskin Robbins will have scoops for 31¢!!
Update 2: Thank you, kind Mr. or Ms. Anonymous. I've corrected my mistake.
"That's Babar."
"Two B's?"
"One B. B-A-B-A-R"
"That's two."
"Yeah, but not right next to each other. I thought that's what you meant."

Baskin Robbins has 2 b's
Well, 3 if you count the Baskin part. I know Philip will get me on this one if I failed to clarify that.
Oh, I guess that's the catch. The chain that's offering 31¢ scoops is Baskin Robins, a chain of 4 stores in rural Nebraska. Not unlike McDowell's in Coming to America.
My bad.
Well, as long as their Rocky Road is with fluff instead of marshmellows...
not to mention marshmallows!
