Help question! THEHILK stay away...

Everyone, Registered Users Posts: 11
Hi there, so as most of you know, TheHilk is my husband and his birthday is coming up in a couple weeks. he asked for a cooler??? Now, if it's me, I'll be getting him a cooler from like walmart, that you put drinks in, is that what he's talking about? I'd love some direction on where to go to get these! thinking in the $100-$200 price range. nothing wicked fancy, but something that holds alot. I don't come on here TOO often, so if you want to leave a comment here that's cool, but if you want to email me one, thilker14@gmail.com would be even better. Thank you!

    Haha awesome, we'll help fill it. I'm sure many people here can answer better than I, but you're basically right. Look for a cooler that has a good seal meaning when closed it is air-tight. Also, look for ones that hold constant temperature. I used reviews on Amazon and such to find a cooler with a lot of good reviews mentioning temp and seal. I don't know what a lot is though so other people should answer... 48qt??

    Buahahahahahaah! LOVE IT! Yes, Wal-Mart cooler is perfect. A one piece lid is preferred. You are looking for one that says "Holds ice for X days".

    In the price range she's talking about. You are looking at the 100+ QT range. Holds hundreds of sticks. AND! this place will ensure he get's it filled.

    Shouldn't he have some cedar trays and dividers for that cooler?? I don't see any on Ccom's humi page but Amazon has a few choices.

    The Igloo model you are looking at seems like a really nice choice for cigar storage. Those latches will help make it have a great seal.

    But In case they don't have those in stock, Here's the ones I use and recommend. Coleman 70-Quart Xtreme Cooler. It's more of a medium size but it's super easy to move around by myself. And at $40 is a great value. And they make a 120 quart size too for $55.

    I have a Coleman extreme. Its 2 - 3 years old and works great. The sticker said that it keeps ice at 32* for 5 days. That is at 90* outside temp. It's 90 quarts ? and well within your price range. I know the newer model is bigger and has wheels. Hope this helps.

    The igloo 150qt is the one I have a couple of. With prime you can usually get it shipped to your door for about $70-100 depending on if it's on sale. I've never had problems with it

    I bought a 48qt. Filled it in a month. It seems if you have the room...you dont have the room anymore.


    Go big or go home!

    Thanks for the info, Mrs.the.Hilk! I don't have a cooler, so I'd go with the suggestions from those who do. Nothing sadder on your birthday than a shiny, new, EMPTY cooler... that's where we can help! :^)

    Oh My Damn! Sold out by the woman who loves him. I dont know if she knows what she has really done to him. Whatever size cooler you were thinking of buying Mrs. Hilk, you better double it!
