I lost all the little containers that you use to freeze the juice/fruit in before shaving... has anyone else found a replacement for those? I contacted PC and they said they no longer have this item or parts for it...

I have one that I bought from a garage sale years ago for $2. I didn't think it would last this long because so much of it is plastic, but it has and works great.

I just checked the original container against other plastic storage containers I have and the Chinese restaurant quart soup containers would fit perfectly in the shaver. You would just fill it no more than a few inches high before freezing. We used to occasionally get hot and sour soup from our favorite Chinese restaurant in Michigan in these containers and I've used them over and over. They're like deli containers but thicker plastic and much sturdier. Here's a photo: http://tinyurl.com/989fglr

I make a simple syrup from sugar and water and add KoolAid to use for snowcones.

deli containers should not be hard to find....

My sister has one, and I'm trying to remember the exact size.

Sour cream or margarine tub? A 1 lb size?

and see if they fit... I have an almost empty sour cream container....

I hope?
