Not sure about Lafayette but in the BR area

Capitol block and pipe in Prairieville

Whole Foods for a block of cheese

Roy’s ice house for a block of ice

Grainger for block and tackle

Home Depot for cinder blocks

Old time farm supply for a salt or mineral block

What exactly are you looking for?

I've got several new in the packaging, you want the short or long version ? These are great blocks priced right.

checked my warehouse out back. Got a few used blocks in various sizes. I'd include the hook for free.

I had checked Zillow for him, but all the listings are for single homes. Good catch on the whole block for sale!

Get a bag of ice from sonic, fill the bag with water, freeze it.

Science.

That’s almost perfect, only thing better is just filling a bag with water and freezing it. Free. Profit…

Assuming OP needs a large block?

this won’t help but in college when trying to build ice luges I found the easiest thing is to take a plastic storage bin from Walmart, fill with water, and freeze it. Only takes about 24 hours at most. Pretty easy to get out of the bin by spraying it with hot water.

I think there is a place on Willow. Going from Ambassador, it will be on the right. I have not purchased block ice in some time so it may not be there now or may not sell to the public anymore.

Blanchet's Exxon on the corner of HWY 90 and HWY 92 used to sell block ice once upon a time. Not sure if they still do, give them a call.

I use 1 gallon containers that ice cream comes in to make blocks to use when I go fishing. Be sure to put the top on the container. If not, the top will freeze first and when the ice expands, it cracks the bottom.

I’m almost positive they still do, a few months back I went to grab some ice and realized I was about to grab a block.
