I think this could work for lazy people too, but taking down your drunken relative's xmas lights probably counts as community service















can't go wrong with this...




there are others that were highlighted in the slideshow, but these were my favorite

ABC store is having some decent sells too. Most of the sails are mail in rebates, but any alcohol on cell is a good sale if you ask me!

This is the best thing ever for a wine drinker if for some reason they don't already have one.

I got one of those silicone shot glass molds for Christmas 2 years ago.

I use it all the time. Mostly because my ice machine broke and I just freeze some shot glasses to put in my drinks instead of buying ice trays.

12/20/2011 11:06:50 AM

the shot glass ice cube tray looks pretty awesome


how is a tetris ice cube tray for an i\alcoholic?

12/20/2011 11:09:52 AM

well a few of them can be for non-alcoholics, but it would be funny to watch a drunk person figure it out .... still cool and I like it

Last year, I went to the ABC store on my way to Charlotte and bought all of my gifts for mom, stepdad, and sisters. Everyone got a fifth of his or her favorite liquor (Grey Goose, Luksusova, Bombay Sapphire, and some random rum). Needless to say, they were very pleased, but it feels like a cop out if I do it again this year.

It is awesome. But it's hard to get them looking as perfect as that picture, there's always a few air bubbles, plus it looks like ice instead of frosted glass.

I don't know about the tetris one but I also got a space invaders ice cube tray and it makes ice that's way too small. Melts in seconds.

I want one!. But how much is 595 pounds?

12/20/2011 11:14:25 AM

the ice ball thing looked cool, but it costs £595

12/20/2011 11:15:09 AM

Is there a quality das boot (3 liter) that anyone knows of?


I want a heavy duty one without it being a tiny "foot" base, not sure about most I am finding online....

12/20/2011 11:15:13 AM

^^^ 595.00 GBP = 932.696 USD

12/20/2011 11:16:15 AM

42.5 stone

12/20/2011 11:16:52 AM

that dude unwrapping the bud light is actually kinda sad

12/20/2011 11:22:14 AM

kinda?

12/20/2011 11:24:02 AM

Makers Mark sent me a ice ball tray a few years ago. It's plastic and probably cost $.25 to make, but it does a decent enough job.

[Edited on December 20, 2011 at 11:27 AM. Reason : s]

12/20/2011 11:26:04 AM

But just think, you could have spent a thousand dollars on something that does the same thing slightly better!

How will people know how much of a connoisseur you are unless you spend outragous amounts of money on simple gadgets?

12/20/2011 11:30:28 AM

I know it wouldn't be a perfect sphere and all, but it seems like you could just use a water balloon for equivalent results.

12/20/2011 11:33:17 AM

you can make your ice pretty much "perfectly" clear, if you put in the effort.

12/20/2011 11:35:18 AM

I want to make my own DIY lego block ice trays

I really want that dual tank backpack dispenser.

Das Boot is 2 liters of beer, not 3. I'm not sure if there's a "standard" size foot but the glass they're made of isn't that thick. I've never seen one for sale for less than $50-60.

12/20/2011 1:15:08 PM

I kinda want those Rubik's Cube coasters.

12/20/2011 1:21:30 PM

fab.com had another ice ball maker

they're pretty neat in they form the ball in like a minute from a block of ice

12/20/2011 1:28:37 PM

how easy is it to get the shooters out of the tray without them breaking?

12/20/2011 1:52:44 PM

easy. apply warm water

12/20/2011 1:53:13 PM

^^oooo...i've been looking for you...i figured you were asleep

"how easy is it to get the shooters out of the tray without them breaking?"

Very easy. The ice is pretty thick and the tray is silicone and very flexible. Don't even need warm water.

In fact the shooters themselves are pretty tough unless you drop them or slam them. You won't break them with just your hands unless you're trying to.

I got one of those Cirrus presses last summer finally. The 2.75". It's pretty dope. Usually entertains people when I have them over for cocktails. Sadly these days, I generally drink my bourbon neat, but again, it's a fun, unique toy.



[Edited on February 9, 2013 at 10:55 AM. Reason : no instagram direct linking huh]

I also have two of these on the way. Looking forward to seeing what fun things I can make with them

^I admit I am curious. The question is, am I willing to spend 40 bucks to try that thing?

2/9/2013 11:10:28 AM

It'll probably be illegal soon once a white teenage girl dies, so get it now

i've made ice balls by freezing water balloons. pretty easy... not a PERFECT sphere, but it kept my shit cold for a long time

2/9/2013 11:50:59 AM

So we're calling alcoholics "alcohol aficionados" now? I like it...
