If you haven’t got your summer hydration plan in place yet, take a look at this deal. Wal-Mart is selling this seven-gallon water/beverage cooler for $30, online only, with free shipping to their stores. Searching for this type of cooler for my own hydration plan, I found lots of options with street pricing much higher than this — on a dollars per gallon basis, this is a steal. I just wish these suckers were rated on some kind of insulation scale.

If smaller is better, you can get a five-gallon cooler on Amazon for $22.

A Cheap Starter Roll-Away From Wal-Mart

Friday, May 12th, 2006

We’re not suggesting that you get rid of your Craftsman, MAC, or Snap-On box or anything, but if you’re looking for an inexpensive roll-away tool chest for yourself, your son/daughter, or a friend, Wal-Mart may have your ticket.

We were out looking for just such a beast last week and came across the one pictured here for $68.98 + tax.  It doesn’t have the same fit and finish as the name brand boxes we have in the shop, but then again the cheapest comparable Craftsman we’ve seen is the 12-Drawer Combo in the latest Craftsman Club flyer for $179.99.

So, if you’re strapped for cash and still need a place for your tools, it’s something to consider.

Your mileage may vary.
