2 Weeks worth of delicious milk shake for less than $10

Summer time means that it is time for "I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream"...and milk shakes as well. Sometimes, milk shakes are refreshing in a way that ice cream cannot be. Here is an affordable recipe that will let you have 2 weeks' worth of milk shakes.
This recipe lets you incorporate ice cream into milk shakes. Plus, you will also save lots of money with this recipe. Why pay $5 for ONE milk shake at a restaurant when you can have 2 weeks worth of milk shakes for less than $10??

Here are the ingredients that you will need:

Drink mixer (like the ones for shaking martinis) or blender
1 jug of milk (gallon size)
4 Liters of Neopolitan flavoured ice cream
Optional: whip cream and/or cherry for garnish

Take 4 scoops of the ice cream. The good thing about Neopolitan is that you will have 3 different flavours to choose from. So if you feel like having only vanilla ice cream on one day, just scoop out the vanilla section of the Neopolitan ice cream. Then add the 4 scoops of the ice cream and mix the ice cream with 2 cups of milk and combine them in the drink mixer, or, you can mix them very quickly in a blender. This will give you enough milk shake to serve 2 people. The 4 liter ice cream and the 1 gallon of milk will make enough milk shake to last two weeks for two people. The cost should be less than $10 as the average price of 4 liter ice cream is about $5 and the average price of milk is about $3.50. And the bonus is that you can have a different flavoured milk shake almost every day (because Neopolitan has vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate).

To top off your milk shake, add whip cream and/or a cherry as garnish.

Holy smokes your math is so off that I'm not sure what to write...

I'll let you do the math... 2 cups a milk a day for 14 days = ?

How many cups are in a gallon?

How many ounces are in a liter (litre?)

How big is an ice cream scoop?

I think your recipe is good for only one week. And I don't like chocolate.

I'm down to 2.5 days of milk shake. I might as well buy it and save the mess.
