One of my good friends has been singing the praises of a really, really, really cool Goodwill store in an area that I don't normally visit. So, she and I made a day of it last week and "played." Shopped the store, had lunch and went back to the store after lunch..for dessert. Fewer calories taken in this way.
For a couple of years I have been investigating the possibility of obtaining a countertop instant ice maker. There have been more than enough times when our refrigerator ice maker hasn't kept up with demand.
I looked around online (none available locally) and was disappointed that they were more costly than I was willing to pay. Now...
My good friend, Goodwill, came to my rescue on the outing with my friend. I came home with a great Avalon Bay ice maker for, drum roll please...$3.99. List price for this model is $149. It looked like it had never been used. To put icing on my dessert, because I was shopping on Wednesday, 20% was discounted because I am an old fart.
I've tested the machine and it makes two sizes of ice cubes and does so in about 10 minutes. Yeah!!!!!
I can't wait to go back. I might try a Saturday, or at least the first Saturday of the month. On that day everything in the store is 50% off! No sure I have that kind of stamina.
