We were at a place called Bargain City (where I bought my stereo amp/receiver earlier this week).  I spotted a Coleman 3-way with two regular trays and one ice bin with water spout.  It wasn't marked.  I asked the clerk how much it was.  "$4.00"  sold!!!

I told CJ as we were loading it in the truck I had seen them on eBay for over $70.  I was bidding on one once and quit at $60.  Today there's one listed on eBay for $79.99 that has no trays at all.

Bargain City, we'll be back!  (BTW, the stereo receiver was marked at $49.95.  It was a heckuva lot cheaper than anything I'd seen elsewhere and it works great!)

3-way cooler=ice chest, 01.  And yes, everything works.

JMc, sorry amigo.  That was the only the one there.  Had there been more I'd been all over 'em.

oh, I knew it was a cooler, but sometimes the seal is shot, the Locking Latch, or the hinges.

( my dad used to have old steel marine chests that had the worst hinges !)

This was about the time of year a couple years ago that we got our Coleman thermoelectric cooler really marked down. You gotta look for the end-of-season bargains!  🙂

I've been watching the ones on ebay and it is the shipping that will kill the deal.  And am shopping the local flea markets/Antq. dealers and some auctions.  I see that it is 1980ish but those bars seem like they would fit in the clips that are attached to my popup's floor and counter.

Great find Steve! It always seems everyone else finds the good deals  :(. Last good deal I got was at Wal Mart where I got two zero gravity chairs for 10 bucks!!

Nothing wrong what that deal, Steve!  I paid more than that for mine at Big Lots.
