It's true. One day a year Ben & Jerry's scoop shops give away ice cream cones, and this year's Free Cone Day is Tuesday, April 29. Lately I've been receiving copies of a forwarded email advertising an almost-free cone day the very next day at shops owned by rival Baskin Robbins -- and yes, that's true too. If your sweet tooth still isn't satisfied, drop by Baskin Robbins on April 30 for a 31-cent ice cream cone in honor of America's firefighters. Details here.
