ICE CREAM Prices to Rise as well
 

I was just about to go and buy some more ice cream because it is too hot to eat anything else when I saw this article:

I love Ben and Jerry's but 8% is a LOT!!!!

:eek:

Me too but on a happy note, I just came from Food Lion where they have Breyer's for $2.99 in the tub size not big tub but you know the family size one -- gallon, quart, something, lol. Yeah I am too lazy to walk to the freezer and tell you exactly what size.

I got the Heath Bar Crunch flavor which is my favorite of B&Js. B & J was 3.79 for that little one person size amount.

Okay that is the BEST flavor, okay not the exact best but the Heath Bar is cool

Dang! That's 'spensive!

Heath Bar crunch is my favorite B & J's but NOTHING, and I do mean nothing, beats Breyer's Butter Pecan!

So just like I have to drive to get to work, and pay these higher gas prices, guess I'll be paying exhorbitant (sp) prices for ice cream!

Oh well. I guess with ice cream prices on the rise too, that means I'll have no problem losing weight for the summer. If it costs too much, I won't be eating it! Slurpees for me!

last thanksgiving, i was in fort walton beach, florida, and at the store i saw their gallon of breyer's ice cream for $7:eek:
here, it is not the close to $6. it was not that long ago when i could get breyer's ice cream for $4:mad:

Re: ICE CREAM Prices to Rise as well
 

It is probably increasing because MILK prices have increased because gas prices have increased because.....well, you get the point...

Yeah TJMS mentioned last week that they are paying the farmers to produce less milk.


My Breyers that I bought is 1.75 Quarts = $2.99

Okay, I know there was another ice cream thread somewhere. . .
 

But anyway, hubby went ice cream crazy Sunday with 2 pints of Ben & Jerry's (vanilla heath bar crunch and butter pecan) and oreo ice cream sandwiches, klondike ice cream sandwiches and breyer's vanilla.

I was looking at the butter pecan label and saw where B & J will donate a portion of the proceeds from certain flavors to the Tom Joyner foundation. Don't know what other flavors you can buy to contribute, but go Ben & Jerry's crazy!

Now that's just sad:( . And here I was with my mouth all set for some Cherry Garcia. Good thing it is tooooo late to go out to the store.

I wonder
 

If this also applies to Baskin-Robbins. Because I love Daquiri Ice (been eating it since 1969) and Margarita Ice. Ice cream, particularly a malt w/whipped cream on top, is a rare treat for me.
:o

I get little Ben and Jerry's @ Super WalMart, 2 for $2. :D
They only have Cherry Garcia and another flavor I don't like so I stock up on Cherry Garcia. :D
