Where to buy a cooler?

[Yak]

Hey guys, my fishing partner has finally broken both of my styrofoam coolers and thinking I would like to invest in once of the nice white igloo's or colemans Ive seen others use.

Anyone know of a good spot to pick them up? Id like one big enough to fit a couple springs into but still small enough to save some deck room.

Thanks

Yak

West Marine has a nice one on sale or Costco as discussed in a previous thread ,

See what Canadian Tire near you has.

Thanks to this board I picked up a good sized one with wheels there last year for only a hundred bucks-one of the deep chill models keeps things cold for days-or so they say.

G Sales and/or craigslist as that is how I got my last (2) 100-120 coolers. $10.00 and $30.00.

Yup.....x2 on Costco. I got a nice "deep" one for "libations and sandwiches" while shopping last week; it has wheels and an extendable handle on it kinda like a suitcase to pull behind you. I also picked up one of the bigger more 'traditional' fishing coolers for holding the "bonked".

Stop taking out fishing partners who bring bananas on board and break coolers.....

Just make sure that you have the room for one of those coolers as they do take up a lot of space, maybe it can sit on the Pod??

As has been said already, Costco has the best deal that I have seen... your buddy, who I work, with picked one up on the weekend.......

Cheers

Best deal has always been Costco. As mentioned before $99 this year.

this is a rugged design , $ 99 sale , fairly large too , might be a bit better quality than Costco

looks pretty solid , better hinges maybe too , not those cheap ones that break in a season, like on those other popular brands ...

I like the stainless latches. I just replaced the latches on my oldest Igloo cooler with factory Igloo replacements from West Marine. $20.00 for plastic. I never saw any stainless latches or I would have bought them. The plastic ones are a better design than the old type and are less prone to shearing off when open or so Igloo claims..
