Last Tuesday, i received via email this voucher for a Swensen's promotion. With the voucher, one can enjoy a 1-for-1 ice-cream sundae. My first reaction was to wonder if this has anything to do with the whole China milk episode. Probably Swensen's was seeing a decline in their ice-cream sales and so the promotion. Then i slapped myself (not literally) and realized i should stop being so paranoid like the rest of the world and do the whole freaking out thing.
So i forwarded the voucher to my colleagues and asked to out for the ice-cream promotion in the late afternoon. In the end, only 4 of us went. Win, Kel, me and Andy. We walked over to the Swensen's at Vivocity, then realized the do not honor the voucher because the outlet at Vivocity was "Earle Swensen's", which is apparently not the same as Swensen's. Anyway, i thought the whole thing was silly, because to me they all belong to the same management so why can't they just honor the voucher?!
We ended up having Ben & Jerry's ice-cream next door instead. But it was only Kel and me sharing 3 scoops. Win and Andy decided (rather abruptly) that they preferred to have doughnuts instead when we walked past a doughnut store on the way to Ben & Jerry's. Kel and I ordered Chocolate Fudge Brownie and New York Super Fudge, and got a scoop of Jamaican Madness Sorbert on the house.
