Naa just saving up $25k to start a pit bull puppy mill. My 4 year old wants to help me. About to drive to Arkansas and buy the male, he’s only killed a couple people so they knocked the price down from $12k to $10k since the incident. I may also start an underground dog fight club if you guys want to spread the word...:cool:
I’ll come in as an investor - I also carry concealed in Wal-NotSmart. As OP said we can do it cheaper here in FLA.

Last update. I have an hour to kill. Have not been in the cooler since Tuesday at 2:30. Remember I put in 20lbs and a frozen gallon Sunday. Today I removed it from work truck. No ice, but still cold as hell. Pretty dam good.
If it is to sit on a slick surface you might want some Seadek squares on the bottom. My Frosty has rubber on the bottom. Which is nice until you want to slide it. So it’s a toss up if non slip is important. Easily remedied.
 
So I bought one of the Walmart coolers. Its a 30 qt or so, cost was $80. Yeti would have been $200. I used the old Igloos which are good but an extra bag is always needed at days end because there would be no ice left, just cold water. It'll stand up to my 210 lbs standing on it and the feet are decent non-slip. The Walmart cooler has ice all day..into the evening. For sure its not a Yeti but it performs well. Caveat -- check the lids on the Walmart coolers. More than 1/2 of them don't close well. They leave a 1/4 - 1/8" gap. You gotta get one that closes down tight. I'm retired. I don't have the big bucks like you guys do. I'm talking Natttie lights and Philly blunts just to show you how tough things are.

For 40 more I’ll take this cooler though. Gasket for lid and tight fitting. Best handles on a cooler period. Small and large drain. And if your that tight bud, make ice at home and you will save enough in no time to buy a cooler you don’t have to search through to find one with a lid that closes without a gap.

Don't step on it w/o rubber skid proof pads. Have busted my arse multiple times cooler flipped over.
