On a hot day like today (85 degrees out right now), nothing hits the spot better than some ice cream! Wouldn’t you know it, Rite Aid has double scoops in a sugar cone for $1.79, so you know I had to get on that!

IHOP is taking potato month to the max. For a limited time, the pancake house has presented an awesome combination of flavors served with two buttermilk pancakes, two eggs cooked any styles and one of the following combination of potato-centered-mixes for $5.99:

• Ham, Swiss & Mushroom Browns – loaded with sautéed mushrooms, diced ham and melted Swiss and Parmesan cheese. Topped with green onions.

• Jack, Cheddar & Bacon Browns – stuffed with chopped hickory-smoked bacon and melted Cheddar and Monterey Jack cheeses. Topped with sour cream and green onions.

• Country Sausage Browns – overflowing with pork sausage links, Cheddar cheese and grilled onions. Topped with creamy country gravy.

This may not help you see the Lakers better if you’re watching from 500 feet away, but it’ll definitely let you get your drink on for cheap! With this funky contraption, you can pour your favorite drink into two separated 8-ounce barrels, holding a total of 16 ounces of beautiful alcohol goodness! Comes bundled with an easy fill funnel and 31″ plastic carrying strap. The actual binoculars stand 7″ tall and sit 8″ wide. Pick them up here!

Starting March 3rd, you will be able to order the new Starbucks instant coffee aptly titled VIA Ready Brew via the online Starbucks store. If you’re looking to pick up a pack in person, as of now, the product will only be available in the Seattle and Illinois locations. Single-serve packets of VIA are packaged in books of three  ($2.95) or boxes of 12 ($9.95). Unfortunately, shipping for a box of 12 will run you $7.99. (Thx FFM)
