Igloo 5 Gallon Seat Top Beverage Jug with spigot https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000..._api_i_39WyBb9363F34 I would love one of these that would keep watered down powdered Gatorade cold for 5 days. I’d buy one in a heartbeat and mount it next to the garage. These dang neighborhood kids are in and out of the kitchen like a bazillion times a day. In my experience one is lucky to get a few hours out of the igloos and that is staying with ICE to the brim. One fill up of Ice for the week or even two would sure beat the daily fill up. Especially since some days my ice maker does not seem up to the task. ———————————————— The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad. If we got each other, and that's all we have.

Cut a few gallon jugs in half just below the bottom of the handle to make large ice trays. Fill with water and freeze to make your own half gallon blocks of ice. This will last a lot longer than small ice cubes. ______________________________ “I'd like to know why well-educated idiots keep apologizing for lazy and complaining people who think the world owes them a living.” ― John Wayne | |||

Similarly, we take a case of water bottles and just freeze them. They stay frozen much longer. Also, the big water bottles like liter bottles of Aquafina from the gas station, those freeze great. __________________________ The entire reason for the Second Amendment is not for hunting, it’s not for target shooting … it’s there so that you and I can protect our homes and our children and and our families and our lives.

Ewww!!! The first two ingredients in powdered Gatorade are sugar and dextrose, and the first ingredient in powdered G2 (low calorie version) is sugar. Sugar + heat + time = breeding ground for some strains of bacteria, some strains of molds, and some strains of fungii. That is likely the reason nobody has made a 5 to 7 day dispenser cooler. Needing to be refilled at least gets people to dump out the contents and hopefully they'll wash it too.

Hence the reason I want one that actually keeps the contents cold  The chest type do it when not opened. Not sure why one using the same stuff with a spout at the bottom that was not opened at the lid would not keep it cold. ———————————————— The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad.

They make a smaller 2 gallon version, I used to use one of those on deployments. Used Ice, Powdered Gatorade and water. It seemed to at least keep things cold for the day and might be a better solution than trying to keep it going for a week at a time. “Government exists to protect us from each other.

Water fountain is a great idea! For the gatorade powder, you could get one of those powdered soap dispensers.

Those igloos did pretty well for our construction crew, especially if kept out of the sun, but not with ice cubes. We use big chunks of ice, biggest we could fit in it. Running by the local ice plant they would fill it up for cheap on the way to the job site. Freezing your own ice in Tupperware or milk jugs etc might work. Collecting dust. | |||

Buy a large freezer. Install piping from 5-gallon Igloo going through door to an outside tap. Install in garage. Fill cooler in freezer. Provide one cup. Nice is overrated "It's every freedom-loving individual's duty to lie to the government." Airsoftguy, June 29, 2018 | |||

For hours? Hell, I've got a cheapo Coleman that I bought in 1982 for about $12 that'll do that.  Not a chance in hell I'd drop $300 for the Yeti. You could buy a mini fridge for less than that and fill it up with water bottles. "But it's a Yeti!" Get a Yeti sticker and put it on the front of the fridge. ________________________________________________________ "Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil." Doug Patton. | |||

Mini fridges ar electric hogs. I already have 2 deep freezes and a dehumidifier that are hogs. That frostbite does not look too bad. May have to give it a shot. ———————————————— The world's not perfect, but it's not that bad. If we got each other, and that's all we have. I will be your brother, and I'll hold your hand.
