large bags of ice

[maa3120.livejournal.com]

Where can I buy large (10-20 lb) bags of ice?

EDIT: Acme Ice had 40 lb bags for $10 - such a bargain! Thanks for helping my new-to-Somerville-and-google-challenged ass out of a jam. Driving across town was WAAAAY easier than collecting "free range" ice on the back porch.

Is there still a place near Savenor's on Washington (Kirkland) Street? I can't remember for sure.

Reliable Market or Market Basket in Union Square both carry these. (Reliable Market has a larger selection.)

Aptly named!

(p.s. Hi Joy!)

Yup. It's still there, near Dali, at the corner of Beacon/Kirkland/Washington St. The guys may not be there at any given time, but they usually leave a sign.

I just did a Google Streetview over there, and it must be this place. Despite their name I think they sell "wet" ice too.

It's "ACME Ice" on Kirkland, sorta across from Dali.

i think they have an automated ice bag vending machine for your 24 hour booze-chilling needs.

1. Place bucket in front of house

2. Wait a couple hours

Thanks for making the effort. ;-)

I'm surprised it took that long, really.

I was right behind you.

also, many (most?) package stores have ice in big bags.
