Snow Cone makers for home use any good?

[StageLeft]

I've falled in love with snobiz.com snow cones, but I wwanted to know if the $20 sno cone makers are any good like you'd get from walmart, and where is a good place to buy syrups for them...? Walmart has pretty well no selection of flavors.

That is so f'd up, I just bought one of those yesterday for my two nieces, they totally love it, but will forget about it in two days like they do the rest of their toys.

Thing is where can I buy more syrups?

The only one worth a damn. Kinda pricey though.

Try an asian food market. Us crazy asians LOVE the snow cones.
I also saw a rather large selection in my local drugstore (Long's Drugs). You might try there too.

make your own!

2 cups sugar
3/4 cup water
1 pkg. unsweetened Kool-Aid

Bring sugar and water to a full boil. Remove from heat.
Stir in Kool-Aid. Chill.

When ready to use, pour desired amount over crushed ice.

Lemon-Lime rocks.

So I bent down
and I reached down, and I scooped down and I gathered up a generous
mitten-ful of the deadly *YELLOW SNOW*

The deadly yellow snow, from right there where the huskies go!

Whereupon I proceeded to take that mittenful of the deadly yellow snow
crystals and rub it all into his beady little eyes with a vigorous
circular motion hitherto unknown to the people of this area, but destined
to take the place of the mudshark in your mythology
here it goes,the circular motion, now Rub It!

*(Here Fido)*

And then
In a fit of anger
I pounced

And I pounced again

Great Googly Moogly!

I jumped up and down on the chest of the him

I injured
The fur trapper

Well he was very upset, as you can understand
And rightly so, because the
Deadly yellow snow crystals had
Deprived him of his
Sight

And he stood up, and he looked around, and he said

"I can't see"
"I can't see"
"Oh, woe is me"
"I can't see"

"Well.....you know
I can't see
Nothin'"

"He took a dog-doo snow cone and stuffed it in my right eye
He took a dog-doo snow cone and stuffed it in my other eye
And the husky wee-wee
I mean the doggie wee-wee
Has blinded me
And I can't see
Temporarily"

smart and final, sometimes known as fart and smile

My mom found a home ice shaver for like 15 bucks made by <goes to look at the thing> by Rival. Looks kinda like a mushroom with a blue top. I use it all the time. We have a couple types of syrup, but strawberry is better than lime, watermelon or bubblegum.
