As we all know, the cost of everything is rising and affordibility is on everyone's minds. Even here, at the shop, all of our costs (stock, supplies, wages, utilities, etc) are going up.

Every year, we have to balance our prices against costs.

We also think about the "Core Family." The traditional 2-parent 2-child family who are coming through our doors for an ice cream. Maybe they've been coming for years or maybe they're a new family starting their own traditions (or continuing and old one). What is their budget? Can they afford a trip to Pete's?

Ice cream is becoming a luxury item and we thought...maybe it doesn't HAVE to be.

So we're doing what no one else is doing. Pete's is bucking the trend and LOWERING the prices of our ice cream cones.

That's right... this year, you will pay LESS than you did last year for Child, Small and Large ice creams.

Mom, Dad (or 2 moms, 2 dads, grammie & grampie... 2 adults) and their 2 children can have a delicious Pete's Treat and maybe create a wonderful memory for under $20.

So there you go. Our big announcement we've been teasing (Did you catch the clues?) is that Pete's will be lowering our prices for scooped & soft ice cream.

Opening day is right around the corner. We're rested, we're ready and we can't wait to see you.

Also, we've got some new & returning faces behind the counter. We ask that you please have some patience as they get back into the scoop of things.

Thank you, Mary & Team Pete's
