Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream Half Baked, 16 oz
A barcode identifies the item, not its price — the register decides that. If it does not ring at $5.00, please just put it back.
🛒 In the aisle? How to check this ▾
- Scan the barcode in the Dollar General app (or enter the UPC) BEFORE you get in line — that's the only way to see the true price.
- If the app shows $0.01, it's a live penny at THIS store (penny status is store-specific).
- Look next to the barcode ON THE PACKAGE for a manufacturer's date like "02 / 2024" — a year or more in the past means old stock, which is what pennies. A date in the FUTURE is just a best-by; it means nothing here.
- Check the neighbours: dead stock usually arrives a whole shelf at a time, so one old date is a reason to scan what's beside it.
- Expect friction: many cashiers won't sell a penny, and it's never guaranteed. Be polite; don't argue.
- No luck? Tap "couldn't find it" so the community knows it's dried up here.
Rule of thumb: a penny is a lucky bonus, not the plan. Full Dollar General guide →
“First carried by Dollar General” = when this item first appeared in Dollar General’s catalog — not how long it has been a penny. Penny status changes at the register and varies by store.
Currently Other / Misc. A moderator will review it.
A moderator reviews every date before it shows up. The date is a claim, not a price — always scan the item at the register.
🔎 0 couldn’t find this. “Couldn’t find it” is a weak signal: pennies and clearance are scattered, store-specific, and sell out fast, so not finding one usually just means it wasn’t at that store that day — not that it’s gone everywhere.
Penny status varies by store — always verify with the Dollar General app. How →
⚠️ A penny is often triggered when a product's packaging or formula changes — the maker gives the new version a new item number and the old one gets discontinued. So the item on the shelf can look identical but actually be the new (full-price) version. Match the exact item number, not just the look — small differences in packaging, size, or wording are the tell.
Pricing & info come from Dollar General's distribution network, not individual stores. DCs supply the stores, so items are usually there — but expect some inconsistency unless a shopper has confirmed it.
💲 Community-maintained price
This item is priced above Penny Tree’s $0.50 top price, so it’s not in the main grid — but it’s here so you can scan it and check. The price below is the shoppers’ consensus: report what it rang up as and the most-reported price becomes the working default until an admin sets it.

Product details
A delectable dance of Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough and Chocolate Fudge Brownie. Vanilla ice cream and chocolate ice cream with chunks of cookie dough and fudge brownies — it’s hard to imagine a better combination. Ben & Jerry’s Half Baked — which got its name because the cookie dough isn’t baked, but the brownies are — has been a bestselling flavor since we first decided to combine our classic ice cream creations back in 2000. Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, with big chunks of chocolate chip cookie dough surrounded by vanilla ice cream, was created back in 1984 at our very first Scoop Shop after we received an anonymous fan’s flavor suggestion. It continues as a flavor phenomenon to this very day. Chocolate Fudge Brownie is a fan-favorite chocolate extravaganza, mixing chocolate ice cream with ridiculously delicious Greyston Bakery brownies. It’s been satisfying chocolate lovers since 1991. We know it can be hard to choose between those two legendary flavors. With Half Baked, you don’t have to! We work with Fairtrade Certified producers for all the cocoa, sugar, and vanilla in our recipes. Greyston Bakery, one of the largest social enterprises in the US, provides the scrumptious brownies for this and all of our frozen dessert flavors. All our ice cream is made with non-GMO sourced ingredients and cage-free eggs. This ice cream pint, like every pint we make, features responsibly sourced packaging.
