I don't know how much this will really help your personal finance situation, but Ben & Jerry's scoop shops are scooping out free cones this coming Tuesday, April 17th. From noon until 8PM just show up and get your free cone. They do it every year.

Ice cream provides a lot of essential nutrients, including calcium, uh... Vitamin A? Niacin? I really can't say, but it tastes good, and if you're really broke and you get a cone and manage to con some sprinkles, you might be able to make that one of your complete meals on Tuesday. Nutritionally suspect, but a money saver. And that's the name of the game.
