I remember the discussion being about Blue Bell ice cream. A quick
check with Google gave the date as about March 25. A quick scan gave
most of the Blue Bunny posts prior to 2005.

To Blue Bell ice cream fans. Join their Ice Cream Country Club. You
can get a $1.00 off coupon each month. Got one last month and the
local store had the ice cream for $3.68 per 64 ounce carton.
