Keri's Wellness Wednesday: Homemade ice packs
Save money and keep your beverages and ice-cream cold with this easy ice-cooler tip this summer!
With summer very much approaching, it is fun days out with friends and family. It's braais, picnics, beach days, concerts, parties and any other outdoor fun activity you can think of.
Packing a cooler box is all fun and games until a few hours in and you are stuck with those gel packs that are leaking blue everywhere or a soaked cooler bag as the ice has melted.
This trick will change your life, and make your cooler box even... cooler

What you will need...
1 x large zip lock bag
1 x sponge
clean water
To start, soak your sponge in cold, clean water. Put the soaked sponge into the ziplock bag, and place into your freezer overnight and .... ta daaaa!!!! The perfect homemade ice pack, ideal for keeping your drinks cold or nursing a swollen body part.
And what's better, just give the sponge a rinse when you get home, and you can reuse both the sponge and zip lock bag for your next fun day out.
And if you desperately need a clean up mission while you are out, you have a sponge on hand.
