    We usually stop by here on our trips to visit grandma in Arizona because they have so many different kinds of Thrifty™ ice cream! These ice creams can be somewhat difficult to find since Rite Aid bought out Thrifty's - and most places don't have some of the more exotic kinds they have here - like birthday cake, pecan praline, and coconut pineapple. They also have the classics like black cherry, rocky road, and rainbow sherbert. Overall there are around 20 different flavors to choose from - so this place is always a hit with the kids, both big and small. Though the prices are a bit on the high side, this is not the kind of place you go looking for a bargain. They offer something special and convenient so it's worth the price. There are a few other things they offer, including ice, filtered water, water bottles, dispensers, and other equipment. They also have candy for sale and a few other things. Overall this is a "neighborhood" type ice cream shop that is totally mom-and-pop style, so drop by and support it if you are looking for some tasty ice cream!

    I went to Sandee's water and ice to check it out and see if I could find some ice cream. I walked in and was greeted with an enthusiastic smile. The lady behind the counter explained the ice creams they had and which cones they had. They have regular, chocolate covered with sprinkles, and chocolate covered with nuts. The selection of ice cream was so yummy! I went with a strawberry cheesecake. The ice cream tasted SO GOOD and creamy. It hit the spot. The establishment is clean and smells clean. The prices are great for water, ice, ice cream, and candy. I will be visiting again very soon.

    Great customer service and excellent selection of ice cream and snow cone flavors! Probably the cleanest and coolest store for sure.

They also sell ice blocks. They are closed on Sunday, but there is a dispenser on the outside.

Years ago, we purchased several of their punch cards, and I still had almost five left -- about $50 worth. I decided to use them today when I went to fill up my water bottles. After I started filling them, I asked the employee if they still accepted the cards. She looked at them and immediately said no because they were "five years old." She then asked me if I thought Kohl's would honor a seven-year-old gift card. Considering there was no expiration date on these cards, I honestly believe that comparison was unfair. What upset me most was the way the situation was handled. She took the cards out of my hands and said, "I'll just keep these and you can take the water." In the end, I essentially paid over $40 for 9 gallons of water that had technically already been paid for years ago. I even offered to pay for the water at that moment, but she repeatedly refused while keeping the cards. The entire interaction made me feel as though I was being treated like I was doing something wrong, when all I was trying to do was use prepaid punch cards with no expiration date. Unfortunately, because of how this was handled, I won't be returning.

And once you try it, you realize why it's so popular. The ice cream tastes incredibly fresh and homemade. My personal favorite is the honey lavender--it's perfectly balanced. The lavender flavor is distinct and aromatic without being overpowering, which is rare since lavender desserts can sometimes lean too subtle or too strong. It's clearly a well-loved place because there's usually a line, but it moves quickly, so the wait is never a big deal. And it's absolutely worth it for the dough melt--seriously, it's to die for. There's just something amazing about that combination of cold, creamy ice cream sandwiched inside a warm donut. On top of all that, the staff is always very friendly, which makes the experience even better. I will always recommend this place!

My boyfriend and I are long distance, but when he was in town, this made for a perfect date night treat! Though the place has no interior seating and only one table, we quickly pivoted the plan to eat in my car. Definitely more of a grab and go place to plan a little differently next visit. And yes, next visit as we both loved what we ordered! My boyfriend wanted the Leslie Knope, but was advised it would take 5-10 minutes so he went with the Dough Melt. I took a bite of his, and it truly was heavenly to have ice cream between a deliciously warm glazed donut though I preferred my order. My scoop of chocolate was perfect for me as I don't like to go too overboard with the sweets! Definitely return here and recommend as the ice cream was very good. Hard for me to find chocolate ice cream that isn't just pure sugar, and tastes like chocolate. Novel hits the mark for me!
