Fans of free ice cream, your time has come again. Yup, tomorrow from noon till 8 p.m. Occupy-lovers Ben & Jerry's are once again hosting Free Cone Day. Is a gratis scoop worth waiting in a long line? That is a decision only you can make.

The deal is the same as it ever was. At the appropriate time head to your local participating scoopery (Third Avenue location, RIP), wait on line, and eventually get yourself a free cone of ice cream, frozen yogurt, or sorbet. But do schedule some time if you are going to go for it—New Yorkers really like their free food.
