Perhaps in a last minute bid for a Wellingtonista Award for Outstanding Achievement in the Field of Excellence Tip-Top have announced that this week they will be selling 10c ice creams!

The press release says this:

Tip Top, the iconic New Zealand ice cream brand, is 70 years old this week and current owner Fonterra has lined up 13 dairies to sell ice creams for 10c "just like the old days". Tip Top milk bars were an innovation and the original one was in Manners Street, Wellington.

You can get a single scoop from 2pm to 5pm on either Thursday or Friday while stocks last.

So where and when can you get your calcium fix?

• Oriental Bay Store, Wellington, Thursday
