Got a good deal, now I need a little help

[dmslush]

I stumbled on an Officedepot.com $20 off of $50 coupon right before it expired the other day. I was able to order 17 twelve packs (cans) of pepsi and tea for $30. I want to take part of it with us to wdw to save us from buying drinks to take back to the room with us. We are driving, what is the best way to pack them?

Wow! That was a good deal - less than 15 cents a can.

Since you are driving, I'd leave them in the original twelve can package and just put them in your trunk. If you have room for a cooler, you could put some of them in the cooler so that there would be a few cold ones available for the rest stops. The cooler would come in handy at WDW, too. Obviously, it just depends on how much room you will have.

Have a safe trip!

We leave them in the 12-packs also. Definitely take cooler -- it will save you $ during your drive, too -- gas station/fast food drinks are expensive!

I thought it was a good deal. If I see another one like it, I will post it. I'll leave them in the containers like you said. I wasn't sure if that would be the best way to travel with them or not LOL, I'd hate to end up with a trunk full of busted cans I think we will be able to take a cooler too. There are only three of us going, 2 adults and one child, so that will give us extra room in the backseat where our daughter will be sitting. What kind of inexpensive cooler do you recomend?

THE COLAPSILABLE KIND!!
I got mine at sears [has a handle and wheels like luggage]on sale,but Wal-mart is reported to have them.
they have velcor that holds them flat,then when you are ready to use them they open wide.I bought two sizes a 12 pack size and one that would hold 4 gallons of milk[it has the wheels]

Thanks! I will check out our walmart and see if they have them.
