What is claimed is: 1. A refrigerated display case, comprising: a frame for the refrigerated display case, the frame including a first base frame member and a second base frame member; at least one aperture in the first base frame member and the second base frame member; a set of removable casters

What is claimed is: 1. A refrigerated display case, comprising: a frame for the refrigerated display case, the frame including a first base frame member and a second base frame member; at least one aperture in the first base frame member and the second base frame member; a set of removable casters having a wheel coupled to a mounting base, at least one aperture in the mounting base configured to align with the at least one aperture in the first base frame member and the second base frame member; at least one pin member configured to extend through the aperture in the mounting base of the removable casters and through the aperture in the base frame members to removably couple the mounting base to the refrigerated display case; wherein the base frame members include a plurality of pairs of apertures and the removable casters are attachable to the base frame members at a plurality of locations to create an adaptable footprint for moving the case. 2. The refrigerated display case of claim 1 wherein the mounting base comprises flanges sized to engage sides of the base frame members. 3. The refrigerated display case of claim 1 wherein the mounting base is slidably received on the first base frame member and the second base frame member for adjustable placement therealong. 4. The refrigerated display case of claim 1 wherein the mounting base is coupled to a elongated member telescopingly received in one of the frame members. 5. A refrigerated display case, comprising: a frame for the refrigerated display case, the frame including a first base frame member and a second base frame member; a receiving structure on the first base frame member and the second base frame member; a set of removable casters having a wheel coupled to a mounting base, the mounting base for each removable caster including engaging structure attachable to the receiving structure on the base frame members to mount the casters on the frame of the refrigerated display case; wherein the receiving structure on the base frame members includes a plurality of pairs of apertures and the removable casters are attachable to the base frame members at a plurality of locations to create an adaptable footprint for moving the case; so that the set of removable casters may be attached to the refrigerated display case to facilitate mobility of the refrigerated display case and may be removed when the refrigerated display case is desired to remain stationary. 6. The refrigerated case of claim 5 wherein the engaging structure comprises one or more pins. 7. A refrigerated display case, comprising: a frame for the refrigerated display case, the frame including a lower base frame portion; one or more positioning devices on the lower base frame portion; a plurality of pairs of apertures on the lower base frame portion; a set of removable casters having a wheel coupled to a mounting base, the mounting base for each removable caster including engaging structure for connection with the apertures on the lower base frame portion, the mounting base for each caster also slidably engaging the lower base frame portion for movement of the casters between a plurality of positions defined by the positioning devices to align the engaging structure with the apertures, to mount the casters at a plurality of locations on the frame of the refrigerated display case to create an adaptable footprint for moving the case; so that the set of removable casters may be attached to the refrigerated display case in any one of a plurality of positions to facilitate mobility of the refrigerated display case and may be removed when the refrigerated display case is desired to remain stationary. 8. The refrigerated case of claim 7 wherein the engaging structure comprises one or more pins.
