A Vote for Obama is a Vote for Cheaper Ice Cream

Add expensive ice cream to the bad things you can blame W for.

With this financial crisis getting closer and closer to rock bottom, I’ve been trying to tighten my purse strings any way that I can. So I decided to stop at the grocery store for ice ream instead of the bodega half a block from my apartment.

I was beyond surprised to realize how expensive ice cream has become. D’Agostino on Hudson Street charges $8 for a half-gallon of Breyers!! D’Agostino have you lost your mind? And they had the audacity to charge almost $6 for a pint of Ben & Jerry’s.

The good news? I never thought the day would come when shopping at Whole Foods meant getting a deal. But I’m happy to report that I purchased a pint of Organic Pomegranate Sorbet for only $2.99. And, no high fructose corn syrup.
