OT Yeti colster price?

Options
Was thinking of getting one until I saw the price.  On Amazon they are $50.  Ebay has them for $37.25.  Are they that expensive everywhere?  Where did you guys get yours?

    I have a Academy and a Dicks Sporting goods right down the road from me. I paid the same 29.95 at Acadeny for the two pictured below. However they are 25.99 if you get the ones without the Yeti can included. I thought why not, what's 4 bucks in the grand scheme of things and got the ones with the cans included.

    I hate this forum.  I was thinking about getting a tumbler, then thinking about a colster.  A member above said the colster was worth twice what he paid.  And I know @RRP is a huge fan of the tumblers (as is everyone that has one). 


    I will probably end up with both......$30 seems high for a Coozie!!!!!

    I'm not sure if this 30oz is what is called a tumbler or not. But it's worth it's weight in gold whatever it is. Purchasing it and seeing how well it really performed led me to buying the Yeti 50 cooler. This cup (whatever it's called) is bad to the bone. Going to buy 4 more as soon as Academy gets some more in.

    I got mine for around $25-$30 at Dicks Sporting Goods. Have to admit, its a bit steep at that price, I don't really couldn't recommend it for that price. Not saying it doesn't do its job, but beers don't need to stay cold that long after I crack them open. I regular coozie is a bit easier to carry around also. Tumblers are worth it though.
