Any reason a gallon sized ziplock bag (or 2) wouldn’t work? We fill one before leaving the house from the ice maker. If we need more we either buy a small bag of ice or fill up some ice trays. We find using some of the very well insulated thermos cups reduces the need for ice, keeping liquor in the reduces the need for ice. The DW keeps a large insulated cup full of Arnold Palmer drink and refills it several times a day. Still has plenty of ice at the end of the day. I drink Scotch neat so no need for ice.

We have one of those table top ice makers and found it to be a total PIA, took to much counter space while in use, same for storage when not. So now it’s permanently in storage at home.

I tried Ziploc bags with ice made at home, but they are messy and end up breaking when you have to pound them on the floor to break up the ice. I just want to reach in and grab a handful of ice, or bring it out on the counter and get more than a handful. I make iced tea, and the ice tea comes out hot, so I use a lot of ice to cool it down. It's hard to find something that exact size. Any smaller and you waste a lot of precious freezer space.
