Softsided cooler purchase - Yeti (Experticity Discount) or Rtic (on sale)

[MIKEYB]

I picked up a gen 1 yeti 30 for 180 and my buddy got the 40 for 200. They seem to see to still be around. Just gotta keep an eye out. I really like my yeti softside. Only can compare it to my ozark trails soft side but they aren't in the same league in my opinion. Both have there place. The ozark sits the bench mostly.

Seems like everyone is getting into the cooler business. Just came across these they are marketed as hands free (backpack style) ICEMULE Backpack & Soft-sided Coolers - ICEMULE Coolers

get the Yeti with your discount and don't look back.

I would agree; I have the hopper II in the small 20, and the original hopper 40 with the center zip. The hopper II is a superior design and much easier to get in and out of. Both of keep drinks cold for days on ice, neither have ever leaked. The 40 has had meat and fish in it from trips and worked awesome as checked luggage and never leaked and stuff was still frozen solid after long day of flying.

Yeti probably is over priced, but with the discount you're getting a fair shake and you won't regret it down the road. Just my opinion only...
