Sunday is the day to save on sweet treats like ice cream sundaes.
July 18 is National Ice Cream Day and businesses across the nation are celebrating with specials, discounts, free scoops and contests.
Ice Cream Day became an official food holiday in 1984 when President Ronald Reagan declared the third Sunday of July as National Ice Cream Day and the month of July as National Ice Cream Month.
Reagan’s proclamation noted the ice cream industry generated $3.5 billion in annual sales.
The made-up food holiday comes after National French Fry Day Tuesday and National Mac & Cheese Day Wednesday but contests to win free fries from McDonald’s and free Panera macaroni and cheese are still up for grabs.

Stacy Abrams is already in line.
Don’t waste your time going to McDonald’s….their ice cream machine will surely be “broken”.
Not to mention dirty.. Ewww.
Sleepy Joe just “woke” up and is shuffling to the nearest Baskin Robum store!
