If it’s Tuesday, April 14, then today is the day for free ice cream cones from Ben & Jerry’s, as reported by the Inquisitr back on March 17 when Ben & Jerry’s Instagram account first uploaded a tasty photo of a delectable looking chocolate ice cream scoop. That’s when Ben & Jerry’s first tempted ice cream fans with their “Free Cone Day,” which has now arrived on April 14, one day before the tax deadline.

The Ben & Jerry’s website spills all the delicious details about their free ice cream cone day, which runs from 12 p.m. to 8 p.m. on April 14. They also have a search box called the Ben & Jerry’s “Scoop Shop” that will help people input their zip codes in order to find their nearest Ben & Jerry’s store, and more information about how to contact the store to make sure they are one of the participating Ben & Jerry’s stores that’s giving away free ice cream.
