ARIZONA'S BUSIEST LIQUOR STORE/ rfr| Yj Thursday, June 9, 1960 Well Folks: Have you ever seen a ton of Ice cubes all in one pile? Well, neither have I, but we at Reddy’s Corner have a new, bright yellow cabinet that will hold nearly that many, and they are, those crystal clear, hard frozen cubes that the Crystal Ice peo- ple keep telling you about in newspa- per and radio ads. Now we shouldn’t be running out of ice every day or so, as we have so often in the past. Here is just a suggestion, take a bag of cubes home and put them in your freezer or freezing compartment to have handy for those long cool drinks that are s-o-o-o-o refreshing these hot days. We find at our house that it is much more convenient and really more economical than overworking our refrigerator trying to make enough cubes to take care of our needs. Remember the big bag of crushed or cubed ice is only 50c and Reddy’s Corner is open from 6 a.m. ’til 1 a.m. So if you are starting out on an early fishing trip or find you are out of ice late at nite, (we’ve got a lot of goodies thftt go good over ice, too) come on down and get ’em any time.
