    $3 for a single scoop, two flavors. Not my hand because I'm not cool enough for a tattoo.

    The average person could live without food for nearly a month but we could only survive about one week without water --- that's how essential water is to human life. Some of us can't go a day without coffee but that's a different story. This place is great. The owner, Dwight, is the sweetest and most charismatic guy ever! While you can get your water jugs filled here ($0.30/gallon unless it's Wednesday when it becomes $0.25/gallon), they also sell Thrifty ice cream here! They also sell little snacks if you're feeling peckish while you wait for those 5-gallon jugs to get filled and there's ample seating. Don't forget to tip the lovely staff here for your ice cream cone. Service is great and this place is clean. Stop in for your water and ice cream needs!

    Its more than a water store. Rare to see a Thrifty Ice Cream parlor and this place brings me back when they were more common.

    First time at this store located in the El Super Shopping Plaza. Brother-in-law recommended we go…read moreto get Thrifty Ice Cream. Place was clean and lots of people going in to fill their water bottles, including alkaline water. Our party of four picked up our ice cream. They have a great variety. I had an ample scoop of black cherry. There were two tables in the store and we enjoyed the ice cream and nostalgia. As kids, going to Thrifty Drug Store was a treat, mainly because of the ice cream. Your choice of , 2 or 3 scoops. Drug stores are long ago gone, but you can still get the ice cream at many water and ice stores.

I decided to support a small business instead of a chain store and I spent over $100 on 4 new ones. They immediately leaked while on a jug holder with a slant. I had puddles all over the floor. I thought it was just the lids so I went back to get new ones and ask what I should do. I was told to take a video if the new lids didn't work. 4 visits, several phone calls and texts (directly to staff, not the actual store), being accused of laying bottles down the wrong way when my videos clearly show they were not and I FINALLY got a refund over a month later. The owner "Mr. Kim" is extremely difficult to work with. You can't reach him directly and apparently doesn't even live in AZ so I was asked to wait until he was physically back in town to deal with this. The website and email are a scam. He never contacted me directly. Initially, I didn't even want a refund; I wanted to fix the issue and ensure they were aware the products leaked when used as intended (he sells similar stands in the store) but it became abundantly clear the unavailable owner does not care or appreciate customer loyalty!! There was never an apology or a bit of concern from the owner for the inconvenience of multiple trips to try to make contact with him. We've spent thousands here over the last 5 years for alkaline refills at home and for a family business but we will never return after being treated this way. Buyer beware!

La empleada se hacía como que no hablaba español (con todo el nopal en la cara). Cuando vi que estaba haciendo el producto mal, le dije que el producto no se lo habia pedido asi, en lugar de ofrecer una solución o una disculpa, el personal reaccionó con una actitud burlona, despota y desafiante. Incluso llamaron al dueño porque, según ellas, no podían hacer nada, aun cuando las cámaras podían verificar lo que estaba pasando. El problema no es el dinero, sino la mala disposición para atender, especialmente hacia clientes que hablan espanol, si no te gusta tu trabajo entonces no trabajes ahi o al dueno no deberia tener gente asi. The person who took my order showed no interest in providing good service, which resulted in the product being prepared incorrectly. The employee pretended not to speak Spanish (despite me hearing her speak it with the staff). When I saw that she was preparing the product incorrectly, I told her it was not what I had ordered. Instead of offering a solution or an apology, the staff reacted with a mocking, arrogant, and defiant attitude. They even called the owner because, according to them, there was nothing they could do, even though the cameras could have verified what was happening. The issue is not the money, but the unwillingness to properly serve customers, especially Spanish-speaking customers. If you don't like your job, then you shouldn't work there, and the owner shouldn't have employees like that.
