Let’s take the freebie tour of Wallingford, shall we?
We’ll start with a free pastry at Starbucks (before 10:30 am, print the coupon or show the barista a copy on your mobile phone). Timed, perhaps, to coincide with the Starbuck’s annual shareholder’s meeting Wednesday?
A fine breakfast, but now it’s time for some lunch. How about Ivar’s? Perfect, because they’re celebrating the 105th birthday of their “flounder”, Ivar Haglund. Buy one entree, say “Happy Birthday, Ivar” and you’ll get a second entree for 105 cents. That’s a $1.05 for the math challenged. This one tends to be quite popular, so they advise making reservations if you’re coming for a sit-down meal.
Now, perhaps a little dessert is in order? Well, let’s head up to Green Lake’s Ben & Jerry’s scoop shop for a free ice cream cone. This annual free ice cream day is a throwback to the good old days, before they started adding carageenan and guar gum to their ice cream, and before they were bought by Unilever (who also own Slim-Fast).

Mmmm, I love a little mechanical advantage with my frozen dairy food product.
