$1.39 ice-cream

Picture 4 relatively normal, relatively sane m2s having a peaceful lunch at the arts canteen.

Scene 1, Act 1

Carrie: The Swenson’s topless five ice-cream is now selling for $1.39 only leh
Me: Huh??!!!! Really ah?
Leonard: !!!!!!!!!
Me: What are we waiting for? Let’s go man!
Alvin: Ya let’s go!
Me (Couldn’t believe my super on about cheap ice-cream friends): Huh so you’re all serious about going ah?
3 heads nodded solemnly back at me.
Leonard: I think we should slowly digest our food first before rushing down so that we can eat more later.
The rest of us drooled in savoury anticipation.

Scene 2, Act 1

We were all at the entrance of Holland V Swenson’s.

Poster: Celebrate our nation’s 39th birthday. 5 August – 12 September with these fabulous offers.
Me: 12 September!!!!!!
Alvin: Wah they will surely lose money one lor
Me: yeah let’s go in and eat them bankrupt now

Scene 2, Act 2

Four of us started happily counting the flavours and discussing over how we should order. (Our own favourites vs. One flavour of each) I kept having the urge to giggle as I find it all super amusing. Or maybe it’s just the pre-ice cream high.
We ordered our 20 scoops of ice-cream.

Me: hee hee hee hee
Carrie: I kept wanting to laugh also when we’re ordering.
Leonard: This place is perfect for our og outing, tutorial outing, med fac outing..
Alvin: Let’s see what other offers they have.

We discovered that the winner of their lucky draw will get 39 meals free at Swenson’s.

Me: !!!!!!!!!!
Carrie: If I win it, I’ll invite the whole of med fac here for lunch ah!

I marveled at our generosity.

Leonard (taking out his handphone): We should spread the joyful tidings.
Alvin: Maybe we are just here to help them clear stock.

At this, our four topless fives arrived and all thoughts about soon to be rotting ice-cream flew out of the window.
