$.31 Scoops Tonight at Baskin Robbins!
Almost free ice cream? Yes, please.
Baskin Robbins was my family’s go-to for ice cream when I was a kid. I was so into it that I only learned a year ago that “Jamoca Almond Fudge” is not a universal flavor like chocolate, vanilla or strawberry, but a copyrighted Baskin Robbins concoction. When I moved to San Francisco, however, my Baskin Robbins obsession was replaced by more elusive and exotic sweet-makers like Bi-Rite Creamery, Three Twins, and Humphry Slocombe.
But if there’s one thing that could draw me back to BR for a day (besides the nostalgic taste of Gold Medal Ribbon, the vanilla-and-chocolate-with-carmel-swirled-goodness), it’s $.31 scoop night! From 5pm-10pm tonight, Baskin Robbins in the Financial District and Outer Sunset (and other participating stores throughout the Bay Area) will be offering $.31 scoops with all the proceeds going to firefighter charities.
Be warned, however, that there is a three-scoop limit per person. If a triple scoop for a little over $1 isn’t enough for you, just bring along a trenchcoat, newsboy cap, and fake mustache. Those BR employees are gonna be so slammed they won’t even notice your retarded disguise.
$.31 Scoop Night at Baskin Robbins Wednesday, April 27, 5pm-10pm 570 Battery St. btw Jackson & Washington [Financial District] and 2250 Irving St. @ 24th Ave. [Outer Sunset]
