There’s only one thing in life that’s better than ice cream… and that’s free ice cream. Actually, scratch that, I can do one even better… free Rita’s Italian Ice & Frozen Custard ice cream. The restaurant chain based in Bensalem, Pennsylvania has 550+ locations with 75 flavors under their store’s roofs, offering sweet treat aficionados some of the most delicious ices, frozen, coffees, and milkshakes. So, what’s that about freebies?
