Today we went to Jilberts for the first time. It was 12 minutes to 10 pm. Their sign shows open until 10 pm.

They claimed they were closed and the line was too long- I personally have seen them get through lines out the door in 5 minutes, and this line was nowhere near the door! Very disheartening and slightly disrespectful. I love supporting this local business and love supporting all local businesses where I can, and tonight we had to go to a chain for ice cream!
