FoodserviceDirect.com
After reading a chapter in the Barker's book about cleaning and husbandry and water bowl maintenance, I felt completely "called out" by their "wet thumb" method cleaning being totally ineffective. Basically contaminating and re-contaminating over and over.
And besides, who really wants to sanitize a large number of heavy water bowls week after week every time you change the water.
I finally got motivated and ordered some of those 16 oz deli cups that fit in the water bowl.
A case of 500 cost me $38.99 shipped. Got here in 2 days, although they are pretty close to me, down in VA Beach.
Just wanted to give you guys a heads up to the good source.

Re: FoodserviceDirect.com
Been getting my cups from Foodservicedirect.com for over 3 years now ... I have an account with them and they make ordering and billing super easy for their customers.
Good post Brad!

By "wet thumb" do you mean handwashing? I put my water bowels in the dishwasher. Having two bowels and only one snake, this isnt really a pain for me. Plus it's a little more envirnomentally friendly. Just wondering, Are those made of styrofoam?

Borrowing would mean that I had the intention of returning them!
