Superbowl Sale at RTIC

[Dale Gribble]

Got a 65 ordered, I'm glad I didn't buy one a week ago at their full price when I was thinking about it.

Thanks!  I've been eyeballing these for some time.  Just ordered the 65.  Great deal.

Looks like yeti is no better than the igloo  , I have a Coleman and igloo. Never bought ice once after initial fill October 12, got home on October 25. The cooler with my meat still had at least half of the block left on all them 5 count Coleman extreme. My igloo had three blocks about half of the block left, plus it held my crushed ice, three bags all lasted long enough I didn't have to buy more of them either.

So the cheap ones work well enough for me, funny thing is when I was researching my Coleman extreme last fall a guy bought a yeti saying he want spending anymore one cheap ones. 

I think one of the problems with some of these YouBoob tests is that they aren't always done right. a cooler is an insulator before its a cooler. My garage is still 100*+ in September and October, and if I pull out both a heavy duty cooler and the thin, cheap Igloo then the ice will melt quicker in the heavy duty one if I don't bring the in the house a few days before the hunt and toss in some frozen stuffs from the upright freezer to properly prechill the coolers.

My dad just ordered two 65's. Two different coworkers also bought 65's. Looks like RTIC is doing some good business right now.

I have a Coleman Extreme. I've noticed that it holds ice much better than the larger Igloo that Costco sells for $100. Its obvious that the Coleman has thicker walls than the Igloo. Wondering if the RTIC would be a step up in ice retention over the Coleman 

I would say it's 2 steps ahead.

The Coleman Extreme matched the Yeti in staying cold in this comparison:

Went right by it. Maybe I saw it and it triggered my otherwise waning memory.

I think they are all pretty close in temperature retention anymore. The selling point for me is durability. I'm tired of having to replace coolers every couple of years.

I ordered one yesterday afternoon and received an email this morning that it shipped.  Shipping was free.  This is quite the deal.

I am also tired of replacing coolers every year or two, hoping this one is more durable.

I can tell you that they are made like a tank and weigh as much as one too 

[jackelope]

I ordered a couple too. They say I'll have them on Monday. Screaming deal. Thanks for pointing it out, Bean!

How are your guys' coolers breaking? I guess I've been kinda lucky. I had the drain plug on my Coleman Extreme start leaking a few years ago and the hinges wore off, but that was after almost ten years of use. and no I didn't strip the drain plug like this idiot here! 

I've been more concerned about the fact that I store them in the garage year over here when summer temps hit 110+ where I live. This is my first 'nice' cooler and I may find a home for it inside the house. Does the extreme garage heat break down the insulation inside?
