Today is  Froyoworld’s 13th day of business “grand opening”!

Thayer’s newest frozen treatery has been promising a free t-shirt with any purchase at this grand opening for days now. In the interest of free swag, get up, walk the half block from your Frisc cocoon and buy yourself some morning froyo. The store opens at 11 a.m. 12 p.m.

We all have a few questions about the Froyoworld logo. For example, is that a Neopolitan hat?

The t-shirts are for a “limited time only.”  We don’t know what “limited” means exactly, but when Froyoworld opened near the Yale campus last year, the New Haven branch handed out 500 shirts, according to the Yale Daily News.

Five hundred sounds like a lot, but the YDN reported that over 1,300 customers visited the store that day.  So, to get a shirt, you basically needed to score in at least the 61st percentile  in terms of punctuality, which happens to be exactly the same score you need to get on your Orgo final…

Many of you may have noticed this sign in the window of the vacant store between the Metro-Mart and Better Burger Co, and its true… Thayer St’s newest addition will be Froyoworld!

Originating in San Francisco, California, this self-serve frozen yogurt lounge is looking to make a name for itself on the East Coast! There are a variety of different flavors to choose from, along with up to 45 different toppings ranging from sugary sweets and cereals to nuts and fruits.

Tentatively, Froyoworld is looking to have a soft opening in the first week of April and do a big grand opening in the first week of May. At their grand opening, they will be giving out free t-shirts with every purchase (while supplies last)!  Stay tuned for more updates as the semester progresses.

As Providence’s cozy reply to the Californian mega-chain Pinkberry, Thayer Street’s Juniper has served Brown students and Providence natives deliciously nutritious frozen yogurt (“frogurt”) for years.  And, (lucky us) it just got better.  After diligently perfecting their two basic flavors—blueberry and “original”—the owners of this Providence staple have inducted a new flavor into the froyo hall of fame: Mango.

Stop by and try some today.  You won’t regret it.
