Styrofoam Coolers

[canada_ang]

Is there anywhere at WDW to buy a styrofoam cooler? We are not renting a car, nor are we planning to go grocery shopping (or have groceries delivered). Just need something to keep a few drinks cool in the hotel room!

Where are you staying? Fridges are free in Mods & Deluxe. We used to use a soft sided cooler as our carry on & then use it in the room.

Sorry - we are staying at Pop and don't need to rent a fridge for anything else.

I got a great idea from these boards afew years ago and we use it every time we go ( this year will be our 3rd time in 3 years ). You can actually buy a styrofoam cooler, fill it with your favorite snacks and things you and your family will eat -we put granola bars, nuts , cereal bars, pop-tarts etc and then MAIL IT to the resort a week or few days before your arrival. That way you not only have a cooler to use in the room- you have some snacks and aren't wasting valuble space in your luggage. It's not real expensive to ship and works out great. We have never been questioned or had a problem . We just check at the front desk to see if our package arrived yet! Hope this helps. We are staying at the Pop Century too from Aug. 21 to Aug 27. Have a great time!! pixie dust to you

Have you considered buying a small to medium collapsible softsided cooler at a department store? These fold flat and pack in the luggage quite easily. We have one that we take every time. I think it cost $12 or so.

We were at Pop Century during Hurricane Jeanne last September. They sold the styrofoam coolers right in the food court. They might not have them out while you are there but if you ask, maybe they will have some in back. HTH Rebecca

Hi - I am having beverages delivered. I called the contemporary and they said that all the rooms now have refrigerators. I know that our room in POR had one in Dec.
