Is it worth the trip...

ThunderChicken thought this was worth mentioning said Thu, Jun 25th 2020 at 7:53pm ET

Help me decide. I ordered the 10-Pack: Handy Gourmet Single Ice Cube Tray during the recent mehrathon and they have been sitting in my mailbox since yesterday. My mailbox is in one of those bunches that “serves” a whole bunch of houses, and I am as far away as you can get. I have USPS Informed Delivery. Is it worth the walk in hot weather, or should I wait until something interesting shows up?

It’s hot weather. You’re going to get something to make ice cubes. Seems like a simple decision to me.

- @cinoclav I should have explained further. My freezer has an ice maker. I ordered these because this winter I am moving back to my place that has a small freezer and having cube trays I can stuff in anywhere because of their small individual size would be a plus. But if they are cool (no pun intended) I might use them now for square cubes in cocktails rather than the crescent-shaped ones from the ice maker.

- @ThunderChicken It’s better than red, but I’d wait until something else comes in the mail that makes the trip more worthwhile.

There is some value in the exercise of the walk.

Do you have leftover coffee in the pot? Might be worth the walk (especially now that it’s cooled off a bit!) to pour a shot of coffee in one and freeze it for tomorrow’s “damn it’s hot” iced coffee… #justsayin

Depending on where you live, wait until a cool enough part of the day/night?

I’m saying leave it.

Wait until you’ve forgotten the Ice Cubes are in there. Then you’ll have a nice surprise when you find them.

Make the walk so you have room in your mailbox for the next useless thing.
