Boombalatti’s hosts “Stuff Your Stanley” event as customers fill up their Stanley cups with ice cream

WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — It may still be the winter season, but its never too cold for ice cream. A local ice cream shop offering a pretty sweet deal on Wednesday.

Boombalatti’s Homemade Ice Cream hosted it’s “Stuff Your Stanley” event at all locations Wednesday. Customers brought in their Stanley, Yeti or Tumbler cups to be filled with up to 5 scoops of ice cream.  Alyssa Neer, General Manager of the location off Military Cutoff Road, said the customers are big fans of the idea and want to see it continue next year.

“You know it being February, what better time to bring in the Stanley cups and the love for the Stanley cups, and let’s just fill them with ice cream. They hold the ice cream really well, makes it stay cold, you get a good 8 hours out of that ice cream,” Neer explained.

The Boombalatti’s locations in downtown Wilmington on North Fourth Street and Hampstead on Highway 16 are open until 9pm. The location on Military Cutoff is open until 10pm.
