Baskin-Robbins Everton Park Grand Opening Party!

The clouds looked to threaten the day with heavy rain, however the sporadic periods of drizzle couldn’t keep the crowds from claiming their free scoop of ice cream at the latest Baskin-Robbins store to open in QLD at Everton Park! Franchise Owner, Elline’s daughter and niece were out on the side of the road with the wobble boards which encouraged many cars to pull into the car park causing some congestion at times! To keep the kids entertained there was a magician, a face painter and helium filled Baskin-Robbins® balloons galore!!

Ronald, Elline and the team scooped 727 cups of ice cream and even sold cakes and several Take Home Packs throughout the opening. It’s evident that the residents of Everton Park love their Baskin-Robbins® ice cream and will be back for more in the future. If you are in the area in the coming weeks, look out for a ‘Party Goes On’ flyers containing vouchers and special offers.

OPTIMISTS prefer rainbow or strawberry, users of social network websites choose cookies and cream and people who keep a close eye on their wallets opt for vanilla.

Our favourite ice-cream flavours reveal more about us than meets the eye, a survey of more than 1000 Australians has found.

Market researchers from Colmar Brunton asked respondents how often they ate the sweet treat, which flavours they preferred and how they viewed themselves.

The results show those who read the gossip and entertainment sections of newspapers list chocolate and strawberry as their favourite flavours and users of social networking website Facebook say cookies and cream is the top pick.

Vanilla is the favoured choice for many, including those who have recently cut their spending and people born before 1946.; those who prefer rum and raisin do not consider themselves dog lovers.

The study found 64 per cent of men ate ice-cream at least once a fortnight, compared to 53 per cent of women.

Twenty three per cent of respondents ranked vanilla as their top ice-cream choice and 22 per cent said they favour chocolate.

New South Wales residents treat themselves to ice cream the most, at five times a month, followed by South Australians and Queenslanders.

Baskin-Robbins Gold Coast Meter Maids

Did you know: Gold Coast Meter Maids were introduced way back in 1964 by the local progress association amid fears the installation of parking meters would drive tourists away. The job of the meter maids was to put coins into expired parking meters ensuring that no one got a parking fine. The only difference is that it only cost sixpence in those days!
