$ 101 - The new high bid.

P.S. $1 would have beat your bid buckeybob!

I have one, it was given to me, they are good coolers but in no way are they so good that the price is justified. Keeps ice twice as long as a cooler that costs up to 10 times less.

We sell these at Higginbotham Brothers. When our COO bought them I thought he was out of his mind. They have actually sold quite well. They will keep a bag of Ice frozen for 14 days. They are amazing.

They are worth the money. Very durable, and are certified bear resistant (in case anyone is thinking about hanging out with bears). There is actually a video on youtube or something that shows a bear trying to get in to it. I would hang on to it if I was you....

I'd keep it too, they are great coolers. I gave my son one for Christmas, but think I paid $50.00 more for the King Ranch Running W on it.:doh:

Hmmmm...interesting, I must have got a lemon, the very best I have gotten the Yeti to keep a bag of ice is 4 days (in the Winter at the deer lease), at that point the bag if ice was 90% water with a few chunks of ice still floating. Block ice will obviously last longer, maybe 5 to 6 days.

Did you have it open with a heater blowing on it?

yeti's are great coolers but they are not worth what they cost. My wife was going to get me one for Fathers day. i told her to get me two 48 qt igloos and keep the change:D

There is no way I can 14 days worth of beer in a 50 qt. cooler. :thinking:

have not used a YETI cooler cause they are too expensive...

but i have this styrofoam ice chest that i just cant get rid of... that sucker will keep ice for like 4-5 days out in the garage!!! Its got real thick walls and the lid is thick enough for my kids to sit on. (we bought it one saturday morning because we forgot it was our turn to bring "team snacks" after youth soccer game...)

He has no reason for it. If he is ever out in the wilderness for 5 days, it's not on purpose.

If it were orange and black with a big "G" on it I'd buy it.:D I've sold a couple of Yeti coolers, they are nice but not many people in the oilfield want a cooler that is that expensive. One reason is they tend to sprout legs and walk off......:doh:

I'm thinking of buying it just for the prestige. Gonna fill it with Dr Pepper and take it to the Easter family dinner, and see if my prick gazillionaire uncle brings an igloo.

Those things are expensive. Be mindful of where you keep it because those things disappear in hurry if leave it in an open garage or in the back of a truck overnight. Trust me.
