Reasons to buy a Gallon of Ice Cream

I have been buying gallon ice cream for about a year now. It is not as good as the name brand ice cream so from time to time I do still buy the name brand stuff when it is on sale. I have found lost of reasons to buy a big tub of ice cream.

1. It is cheaper: There for I get it more often.
2. The tubs make great buckets for cleaning, play in the sand, etc.
3. The tubs are a great place for small toys or stuff for table time
4. I can afford to get topping for my ice cream and it is still cheaper.
5. I use the tubs for a GB (garbage blow when cooking)
6. I have a tub with cat food in it.

As you can see I mostly love all the things you can do with the tubs there for saving me even more money. I am glad I have started buying gallon ice cream to save money. What is something you buy and reuse the container it came in? Tell us about it.
