Free Rita's Water Ice Day--in the Snow--March 20, 2015

Every year, we make a whole day out of going for free Rita's water ice.  Honestly, we start at 4 when my kids get home from school, and we go out again to the three or four Rita's around us until 9, when the promotion ends (there is only one allowed per customer...but that is per location..you can go to other locations).  So, we go before dinner, after dinner, and for a late night treat....

But, this year, it was snowing.  Honestly, it isn't good out.  In fact, it is still snowing, or sleeting, as I write this at 9 pm.  I wasn't going to drive out, and Chris can't drive because he had some surgery,  and we weren't going to go...then the plow came through at 7:30, and we headed out.

I couldn't believe how packed the Rita's in Glenside was--there were 20 people in line in the snow!   What I also can't believe is how many people go, and then buy something...in other words, they don't get the free small water ice.    We go to Rita's all season, but on this day, we get the free item.  That's what makes it special.   We do tip the servers...they are working like dogs scooping all that water ice!

                  Timmy, Matthew, Lily (who looks like a Teletubby in that coat!), and Anna!

  

 Happy now that we got our Rita's!
