In case you needed another excuse to eat ice cream, Carvel is giving it away for free Thursday.
Customers visiting a Carvel location between 3 p.m. and 8 p.m. Thursday will receive a free junior soft ice cream cone.
The freebie is in celebration of the annual Carvel Free Cone Day, which marks the beginning "official start of ice cream season," according to the company.
Ice cream lovers will be able to choose between chocolate, vanilla or Carvel's newest flavor, Cookie Butter.
While the ice cream may be the main event, Carvel Free Cone Day is also a fundraiser for the American Red Cross.
Carvel will offer a $1 coupon book while supplies last, with all proceeds going to the organization.
"Total contributions to support disaster relief efforts will exceed $150,000," a press release said.
