Thanks to Chrishawna for sharing this sweet treat with even sweeter results! Throughout September, Cold Stone Creamery is selling wall stars for the Make-A-Wish Foundation, and to top it off (on Thursday, September 25th, 5pm-8pm), they’re hosting the 7th Annual World’s Largest Ice Cream Social, and all guests will be given a free 3-oz. serving of ice cream flavors inspired by two children: Jack and Emily…very special members of the Make-A-Wish Foundation.

This is a great time to take the kids out for ice cream and contribute to an amazing organization for children. While free ice cream will be given to all customers, this is not just a fun and free marketing campaign to promote a national creamery chain…there’s a very powerful reason behind this promotion.

Thanks to Barbara for reminding me that it’s that time of year again! For those of you who had a difficult time narrowing your selection down to just one museum from last year’s Museum Day, try another this year, thanks to the Smithsonian!

The Museum Day event is taking place in museums across the country on Saturday, September 27th, as a celebration of our country’s culture. Though many museums are open to the public year-round without an admission cost, the Smithsonian admission card allows patrons to visit many other museums that would typically charge a fee, provided they visit on 09/27/08.

Mr. Rogers would have loved this day…”Won’t you be my neighbor?”. I posted this event last year, and was reminded again this year by Bekah at Motherhood Moment and Heather at Freebies 4 Mom (thanks to both of you!).

The FTD 14th annual Good Neighbor holiday will take place Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008. Not all stores participate, but there are several FTD locations across the country that plan local events, including the free bouquet giveaways, which usually consist of a dozen flowers per visitor. The idea behind Good Neighbor Day is that you keep one flower for yourself, and give the rest away to your good neighbors, but not the bad ones. Just kidding . You’re actually supposed to BE a good neighbor, and give the flowers away to any/all neighbors!
