    I have several of their coolers and they are fantastic.
    The Backpack cooler is great for Briskets and ribs.
    I normally keep one in my car just in case I find a deal in the meat department.

    BTW...you can put one of the larger coolers in your basket, then add the $25 6 pack cooler, enter the code and get 50% off both. It worked a couple years ago and I tried it last night as well.
    The H20 series is real nice.
    Thank you,

    I did this a couple of years ago.  Couldn't be happier with the product.  I highly recommend them to anyone who could use a soft-side cooler.

    I've been thinking of getting one of these for a couple of years. What size do y'all recommend @Photo Egg @Foghorn? I usually take my Engel 30 dry box when travelling with 'cue or to cook offsite. But a soft side could be useful for roadtrips etc.

    @caliking, I got 2 of the 24 pack nylons and gave one to my son.  

    It's big enough to carry some meaningful stuff but not as unwieldly as a 48 pack.

    I did this deal a couple years ago and loved it. I've been waiting to see it again this year because the one I use and abuse the most looks a little ragged. It still works great though. 

    These are really well made and nice if a soft side cooler is your preference.

    I have jumped on this deal for the past two years.  Couple of 24's and a couple of 12's.  As above, if you are looking for same day (edit-use) soft-sided coolers then here you are.
    Besides, then you won't have to post on the RTIC thread... =)

    I have 2 H20 series, a 12 and backpack and a 24 canvas.
    The 12 is perfect for taking food to the office once a week and stuff home when they clean the fridge one a month. 
    The backpack is good for general use and great for runs to pick up ribs or a brisket. It holds less than 24. 24 is good for toad trips or grocery store runs. I keep it in my car most of the time just in case.

    So I guess this was a one day thing?  Tried to go again, and spread it to some buddies who wanted to get in, but the promo code wouldn't take.  If the PBC gods are reading, maybe they'll extend the promo, wink-wink.

    @HendersonTRKing Just tried it and it was working.   You either have the PBC Gods ears or it was operator error.

    I have an H20 under my boat seat... I can fill it up with ice on a Friday and will still have ice on Sunday..

    keeping in mind, the cooler remains under the boat seat for ~2 full days and 1 full day of sun...

    we usually come off the water around 4pm on Sunday, I will empty the cold water with still some cubed ice mixed in..the left over beer and Gatorade are still ICE cold.....

    I'm glad some of y'all are giving them a shot...they really are very good coolers...

    $79.00 is the least expensive shipping???    Was ordering 1-24pack and 3 -12packs for Christmas gifts.  Seems a little high for shipping cost.

    That doesn't seem right...where are you located? 2 coolers for me is about $13 ground...but I'm in the same state as PBC.


    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    I'm in California...not giving me ground option,  UPS 3 day is least expensive option.  I'll try again and see if ground is available.  
    Thanks @SmokeyPitt...went through process again and Ground option was there.

    mine were delivered today. Promptly gave one to my sister as SWMBO realized I've been on a cooler buying spree (RTIC 65 is still in the truck). Went back to see if I could pick up a backpack cooler but looks like the sale is over :(
