As I posted the other day, I wanted to step up from my 1-quart tabletop ice cream maker to a larger model. I was lusting after a 1 1/2-quart Cuisinart but it was out of my price range. And I couldn’t find any ice cream makers of any sort at my local W*l-M*rt.

Well, on our way to Nashville tonight to pick up my brother from the airport, my parents stopped at a W*l-M*rt in Antioch, and I found something that seems to be just the ticket. It’s a 1 1/2-quart Rival tabletop unit. I like several things about the design, and I think the added quantity will help the consistency of the finished ice cream. And it was just $29.92 - far less than the Cuisinart, and $10 or more less than I’d seen similar Rival models selling for on Amazon.

The two-part freezer bowl (it collapses for easier storage) is in the freezer getting cold, and I’ll make my first batch with the unit on Saturday. I can’t wait.
