Originally Posted By nevadarebel yes, out on the northwest, the albertsons, sams and walmart have the snowie machines right there so everytime we go shopping, we have to have one.

Originally Posted By bloona oh, I know what slushys are! blue raspberry ones and red strawberry ones, suck em and think how tasty, then all the flavour goes and you end up with a cup of ice! Dont think Ive ever seen one finished!
Originally Posted By LadyKluck Slush puppies, icees, and slurpees are all pretty much the same thing here. I'm from Indiana and they call them slush puppies there, here in Idaho they call them Icees or Slurpees. Slush Puppies come out of those machines that just spin and spin and spin and snowcones are shaved ice. I personally like them all!! )
