Free Ice Cream Alert: Target's "Summer Treat Truck" Heading to Illinois

Considering my Target runs usually go from "I only need one thing" to "Oh no, I bought a lot more than one thing," it's nice to get a little something for free.

The Target store in Niles is one of only five nationwide selected for this special event, making it a unique stop for free ice cream next weekend. The Target "Summer Treat Truck" will be in Los Angeles, Dallas, Orlando, and Falls Church, Virginia, next weekend too.
