    So, you're online and you come across an ice tray, and you wanna buy it, or maybe you went online specifically to buy it... what ever the case.

    It only makes 6 cubes, enough?

    You've got 2 choices in front of you.

    1. Buy 1 for $5 or

    2. Buy 2 for $8

    Which would you go for?

    How many ice trays would you choose? 4 votes

    I'd just get 1
    0% 0 votes
    I'd go for 2

    i wouldn't pay a tenner for an ice cube tray


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,195 ✭✭✭✭jimgoose


    Neither. You could either grab one in Tesco or some such place for a couple of quid, or do what I do and get a bag of ice from the local t'Woolpack. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,136 ✭✭✭✭Rayne Wooney


    Massive titanic sinking ice cubes


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 892 ✭✭✭GenieOz


    I'd buy a big bag of ice with around 200 ice blocks for a euro instead.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,916 ✭✭✭shopaholic01


    Seriously, if you need help to decide how many icetrays to buy how do you function on a daily basis?

    I wouldn't buy a tray that only holds 6 ice cubes in the first place, never mind paying $10


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 784 ✭✭✭bacon?

    Neither would I... ok, dropped the price. I'm just wondering, if people would pay a bit more for 2.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,971 ✭✭✭Holsten


    I buy my ice.

    Really should invest in some trays.

    It depends entirely on your needs but yes, going for two makes more sense as one is hopeless.

    They're both exactly the same!

    If I'd a party I'd pop to Lidl and buy a few bags of ice


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,299 ✭✭✭✭The Backwards Man


    That's not an ice cub tray.

    I just scrape the frost off the side of my freezer, dip the rim of my glass in beaten white of egg 'n sugar, fill with said frost and pour whatever is handy into it. Cheers!

    I only use fresh ice
    Not that frozen crap


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,220 ✭✭✭✭biko


    Scrape some off the sides of the freezer. It's free and still ice.

    How much do bags of ice cost? In the long run a tray is better value

    Depends where, usually around 1 euro for a big enough bag.

    Total rip off.

    You could get 1120 cubes for 1.85, so you are getting 186 times more cubes for a quarter of the price.

    Better think again PizzamanIRL and bring forward the date.

    2014 The Time of the End

    Introduction

    Are 6,000 years of sin almost over? Will Jesus come in 2016? The Bible presents enlightening, logical, and compelling answers to these questions. In short, yes!

    The 70 “sevens” prophecy in Daniel 9:24 has two fulfillments. First, the 70 “sevens” are 70 sabbatical cycles – 490 years, pointing to the first coming of Jesus as our Savior from sin.

    Second, the 70 “sevens” are 70 Jubilee cycles – 3,431 years, pointing to the second coming of Jesus when His people will be permanently freed from sin. In the middle of 2016 the 6,000 years of sin on earth will come to an end, everlasting righteousness will be brought in, and Jesus will come again.

    Because you are contrite you will be saved.
    terms and conditions etc.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,270 ✭✭✭tin79


    I just took a breath. Should I let it out and then take another or hold it in and die?

    Jesus OP. Have you no power of self determination at all?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,782 ✭✭✭dmc17


    OP, maybe you should consult your bank manager or a financial advisor before you commit to a purchase of this magnitude.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 784 ✭✭✭bacon?


    Keep the votes comming :D

    I have 3 of those trays in work.
    The round ice cube moulds are better in my opinion.
