Blue Bell Coupons

I don't know if anyone knows this, but I just found it and think that it is great when I can save more on my favorite ice cream. If you go to http://www.bluebell.com/ and click under the extra scoops link at the top, there is a coupon for $1.00/1. WOOHOO!!! I am native to Texas and have been to the factory (too many times to count), but this is the only ice cream that I ever eat.
ENJOY!!!
