AO Coolers on Sale

Well, I'm in Texas and
While it won't hold ice all weekend, it would certainly make it to what they claim. But they don't say anything about how many times you open it, and it will melt faster obviously when opening it often. I love what it gives me, but it won't hold ice like a hard cooler. But no hard cooler will be on my boat.
 
Each couple the past two weekends have brought a hard igloo with them (about the same size as the one that came with the boat). The first time I thought to myself, great... The next weekend, another hard igloo, all I was thinking about was how to tell our "company" no hard coolers. Ice, no ice, whatever their claims are, the soft side is the way to go and they sure seem to do a good job. If I ever have to buy another I will probably by a cheeper version as I already have two. I can agree that the price is hard to swallow.
 
I can't complain about the soft sided one I have, I think I got it at Target, I've left water in it for days and it doesn't leak, I haven't seen it sweat at all, it will keep ice very well for a day one the boat. I try to keep it in the shade while parked, but while moving it fits perfectly under the seat behind the driver's seat. I think it was $17, I don't know the size but I bet it is close to the "36" can AO. That's why it is hard for me to justify spending the $$$ on an AO.
