Pregnant? Overweight? Deceptive? Get free ice cream!
Tomorrow, May 21st, is “Bump Day” at Baskin Robbins, where if you display your “bump” (i.e. your pregnant belly), you’ll get a free 3oz cup or cone of their new soft-serve ice cream. The promotion is only running in select stores in California, Chicago, New York, Nashville and El Paso.
If you’re not pregnant, but want a free cone anyway, Punny Money explains 8 ways to fake pregnancy to get your free ice cream. I personally loved the following comment from Pamela:
This made me laugh out loud! So funny! But seriously, when do the rest of us get a shot? How about low-fat free ice cream for chubby people? Free mocha ice cream for bitter underemployed college graduates? Free spinach ice cream for pushy vegetarians? Why stop with the virginally-challenged? So many other good promotional opportunities, so little time…
And just in case you think this is fake, Snopes.com explains the truthiness of “Bump Day”.

Clever Dude and his bride started with over $110,000 in consumer debt and in just 3 short years, they have reduced it down to a mere fraction. The "Dude" writes about his mistakes in finances and marriage in hopes that you, the reader, can learn just a few nuggets of wisdom.
That’s funny. So how about guys with nice sized beer bellies (beer bumps perhaps)? How could they prove we aren’t pregnant?
lol at virginally-challenged, now I’m just waiting for some anti-child group to claim discrimination…
