So everyone who loves the halo tops, enlightened, sweet habit, artic zero.....basically the $4-$7 pints of protein ice cream (sweet habit is 2 pints).

Wellllllll what if I said I’ve been buying them for a dollar each for the past month!😂🙌🏻😎 you know you live in Hollywood, LA when your local 99 cent store stocks all of these.....FRIKKIN STEAL💪🏻 I used to spend 25 dollars on about 5 pints of halo top or any other brand......I’ll take the one dollar pint option though😂👌🏻💪🏻 I found a gem. Yes this is a shameless make people jealous plug, but also who knows...maybe yours carries it as well?🤷‍♂️

    My local dollar tree is actually amazing! But there are lots of crap “dollar” stores around where hardly anything is a dollar. Wtf!

    No 99 cent stores by me tho.
    Never thought to check the freezer section 👍🏻👍🏻

    We only just got halo top here and it's $11-$13 per tub.

    So your attempt at causing jealousy has certainly worked on me :'(

    They usually don’t lol it was from the 99 cent store specifically and I do live in Hollywood where it’s a trend fest everywhere so it may be a little easier for me lol

    I mean you may get Enlightened for a dollar, but I'm not jealous considering the cost of living in LA 😂

    It’s where I need to be for what I do. And you’d actually be surprised. Yeah it’s expensive in a lot of areas but look at the demographics here...it’s not the wealthiest for a majority of people. I’m fortunate to make a living that allows me to live comfortably😊 yet I still will be frugal and go for the 99 cent store ice cream😂😂

    I've found Halo Top at Grocery Outlet once for $0.99 (nearing expiration), but mostly for $1.99 for the Gingerbread flavor.

    That must have been one old pint lol, they usually have pretty long expiration dates😂

    Yikes! Even at Safeway here it's about $4.50! It's good, but not that good! Where are you located?

    New Zealand - where the cost of living is stupid and the cost of ice cream is even stupider :'(

    Whaaaaat? For real? I'm in Santa Monica, must check this out.

    Arctic Zero and Enlightened are my jam. LOL. Though, my store is only charging $2.50 (currently on sale) - so it's not terrible. But for $1.00, you can't really beat that. :)
