A couple of weeks ago, my husband and I went over, had a sundae and a soda each and it was in the neighborhood of $20 including our AP Discount. Was it worth it? I would say so because the sundaes were both wonderfully yummy and decadent. Will be each get a sundae during future visits? Maybe not as we were both struggling to finish them the first visit.

    Yesterday it was the chocolate with carmel inside that they were giving away samples of... Last week when I was there, it was Dark Chocolate. So at least that's free.

    If anyone gets a flavor other than milk chocolate caramel post here. I'd like to know if they give different samples.
