Since we're celebrating the birth of the ice cream cone today, I thought you might all be interested to know that participating TCBYs are giving away free junior scoop cones to Glamour magazine readers. However, thanks to the folks at Slick Deals, we were able to bring you the - wait for it - scoop! The coupon is good until August 31, 2007, however not all TCBYs are accepting printouts and some are asking for you to pay the tax, so call ahead to find out if the TCBY near you is participating.
