Looking at the Poler Bear cooler, since they have such a great deal! Which one do you like the best? I am looking at either the 12 pk or the 24 pk.

Get the 24, you can always put less in it but you can't put more in the 12.... Does that make sense?

We have purchased six of the 24's the last few years during the 2/1 sale.
Have given them as gifts, to kids, plus we use them for weekly costco trips for the frozen items.
Oh and for STJ of course....

We have two 6 packs, one 12 pack and one 24 pack. We gave 12 packs to everyone as Christmas presents a few years ago.
They all, of course, have their own value. We take the 12 or the 24 to STJ. Which one should we take? That depends on how many people we are having to feed and how many days we are staying. Yes, the 24 is just right for a trip to Sam's Club etc. The 12 is the right size for a day trip to the beach. The 6's work well for packing a lunch that needs to be refrigerated.
Every size from the 24 to the smallest size can be carried on a plane.
We like the Techni-ice also. It does a very good job of keeping the contents cool. There are some TSA agents who might take the TI away at the security check point. To prevent that, we pack the TI in the bottom of the cooler, and then stack the meat on top of it. So far every check point has asked to look inside. When the open it up and see packages of meat, they thank us and close it up.
We have used the empty cooler to carry our liquor bottles back to the states.

Thanks! I think the 24 will have to be it! Does it fit under the airline seat?

24 is the size we got works great for carryon and yes it fits under the seat. Just don't plan on having much room to put your feet under there to.

You don't have to buy 2 of the same size to get the deal. I bought a 24 and a 12. I can't remember for sure, but it seems like instead of giving me the lower price 1 for free they cut the total price in 1/2. But that was 2 years ago. I really enjoy having the 2 different size coolers.
