Mini Ice Chest Help to Save Money This Summer

[aliceindisneyland]

I am looking for a particular type of ice chest that doesn't seem to exist anymore. My mom has a small ice chest that has a refreezable ice pack that screws into the lid - so the ice pack doesn't take up room in the ice chest.

I need the ice chest to take in the car every day this summer so we don't end up going through the drive thru for drinks and snacks.

If I can't find this style with the ice pack in the lid, I'll buy an ice chest and just throw the ice packs in the bottom. From experience I know I hate dealing with ice in the ice chest because everything ends up wet, I have to drain & clean it each day, etc.

Has anyone seen a small ice chest with a built in spot for a refreezable ice pack at a brick & mortar store or online?

Like this but small, with just one ice pack: http://www.rubbermaid.com/Category/...tId=MarineCoolers&Prod_ID=RP091226&Redirect=1

We have a couple of those but can no longer find the ice packs to screw in the lids. Ours were made by Rubbermaid and look like this

And here are what the ice packs look like

They can be found on eBay.

They can be found on eBay.

Thanks! I found the exact style my mom has on ebay. Now to decide whether paying double (compared to regular small ice chest) is worth the convenience of the ice pack. Knowing me, probably!

Search for a GOTT brand cooler. I have the 1818 model which used to be my wife's grandfather's. It has an ice pack in the lid. What I like is the it's a refillable ice pack...you unscrew the lid and just fill it with water and freeze it.
