Beverage Cooler - Buy Backyard Beverage Coolers

Those of you that like to spend a lot of time outdoors with your friends and families will want to waste no time investing in a new beverage cooler. Memorial Day, and the kick off to the summer season is just around the corner and its best to be prepared for all of your outdoor activities. Below, you will find a great selection of beverage coolers to suit just about every need and style offered by the most reputable sources online.

Memorial Day kind of snuck up on me last year and before I knew it, I was in a pinch. You see, I had several beverage coolers but forgot that I had lent them to my sister for a camping trip she was planning, only I didn’t realize it was for THAT weekend. Not the kind of brother that goes back on his word, it gave me an excuse to run out that Friday to purchase some new coolers. I soon learned that nearly EVERYONE was doing exactly the same thing and my selection of beverage coolers was limited. I ended up purchasing a couple cheap replacements which I was very unhappy with but desperation won out. Later that evening, I was online and found the perfect selection of beverage coolers and purchased those also so I would be prepared for the 4^th of July weekend. I later called my sister and told her she could keep the coolers I loaned her.

Ice chests are perfect for taking the party with you. It could be to the beach or a park for a summer picnic, or it could be to a tailgate party or parade, or it might just be for a gathering in your own back yard.  Ice chest are normally constructed of rugged plastic or hardened rubber making it the perfect pull along beverage cooler.  These are what I lent to my sister, both Colemans with wheels for easy toting.

Beverage tubs can be the perfect backyard beverage coolers.  In my rush to find some beverage coolers last year, I came across a small selection of galvanized steel beverage tubs at the local home improvement mega-store.  They looked ideal for what I needed them for which was a gathering of about a dozen friends and family members and at least a dozen children.  The open tubs were great but it was pretty hot out that weekend and we needed to continually fill them with ice.  The great thing about the open tubs was that everyone could see exactly what they were looking for to drink.  I paid about $35 a piece for these at the Home Depot and then I seen them online for nearly half that price.  So, it does pay to shop ahead of time.

I later went back online to Amazon and purchased a stainless steel patio beverage cooler.  Yes, it’s a little fancy-schmancy but the price was right and it turned out to be a big conversation piece with my neighbors. The unit I purchased allows for 80qtz, it has a double lid on top to keep the beverages inside ice cold.  On the side it has a built in bottle opener and cap catcher which makes opening, and cleaning up, a snap.  Mine is also a cart on wheels with a shelf underneath to store the next round of beverages. The best thing I like about the stainless steel beverage cooler is that it adds a bit of elegance to my backyard patio and compliments my stainless steel BBQ grill.  Now, when I claim to be a grillmaster I’m taken more seriously… :) Yea, right!
