Scooper Bowl! June 9 - 11, 2009

Alright, so it doesn't touch Ben & Jerry's Free Cone Day for general frugality, but at $8 the Jimmy Fund's annual Scooper Bowl is still a pretty good value. It also has a clever name which incorporates at least two puns. But despite linguistic similarities to a certain annual NFL event, there will be no showdown between the vendors. Just a harmonious celebration of sweet, sweet all-you-can eat ice-cream.

Baskin' Robbins, Ben & Jerry's, Bryer's, Brigham's, Edy's, Gifford's, Häagen-Dazs, Hood, and Spasso have all sponsored the event and will be supplying the goods. Take a gander at the available flavors here. There is musical entertainment planned, though I can't vouch for its quality.

You can also get a $15 Scooper Pass which lets you attend up to three times! That's kind of gross, but kind of wonderful. Event proceeds benefit the Jimmy Fund, which supports cancer research and treatment at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute.

June 9 - 11, 2009, 12pm - 8pm each day in City Hall Plaza, Boston
