I find it incredible that not only a family would eat ice cream every, but that they would travel to get it everyday instead of just having it on hand in the house.

I find it incredible that not only a family would eat ice cream every, but that they would travel to get it everyday instead of just having it on hand in the house.
Not to mention that the car company would send someone out not only to their home, but in the evening and not only once but for weeks. I'd even have a hard time believing this if they loved next door to the companies HQ. Either the world has changed a lot or this is totally made up.
Or that a store would put it's vanilla ice cream in a separate case in the front and all it's other flavors in another in the back, instead of putting all it's frozen foods together in the same area for logistical reasons.
all (and i mean all 6) convenience stores around me have a separate "good humor" chest freezer in the front, directly adjacent to the entrance, and the rest of the ice cream (here it's blue bell invariably) is in a vertical case in the rear of the store. I can go take pictures, if HN doesn't believe the pervasiveness of this sort of thing!
I did not even imagine the possibility of shopping for ice cream, daily, at a convenient store due to the extra costs from convenient store pricing. But I guess it is in the realm of possibility.
the good humor company pays the convenience store to have their freezer in that location in the store, and are the ones responsible for keeping it stocked, unlike the rest of the store.
Yes, now that you mention it, another part of the story that is suspect.
Hardly?
My local grocery store has a selection of ice creams in an end-cap cooler at the face of an aisle. The complete frozen goodies selection is down at the back end of the store. I almost always snag what I want from the up front cooler rather than making the trek to the back.
Plus the hand-held frozen goodies, like ice cream truck fare, are usually in their own cooler separately from the big stuff.
In addition I find it incredible that a commercial car would get vapor locked after driving to get ice cream.
