28. OMG! I've got the best story from the Magnolia, Arkansas Walmart!

Sun May 16, 2021, 01:37 AM

May 2021

Killed 3 deer and a pig. But my 2 marine coolers would not hold them. No problem I said. Will run up to Magnolia and buy another one. No way in hell I’m paying $400 for a Yeti cooler at Kevin’s. So go to Wally World.

And it’s deer season. No Igloo Marine. Nothing. Except the Wally World version of Yeti back then. Called Ozark Teck or some such. A 50 quart for 179 dollars. But what can I do? I’ve got meat I’ve killed and need to get back to Florida. So I pick it up.

Get to the register and it has no tag on it. So the girl calls over a manager. She saw the cooler and said she knows it and it is $79. The price of their smallest of their coolers.

3 times I tried to tell them that was the wrong price and the cooler I was buying was $100 dollars more. 3 times they ignored me. So I said fuck it and walked with a 179$ cooler for 79$

Biggest piece of shit I have ever owned. I’ve got 10 year old igloo marine coolers that do heavy duty on the boat in better shape.

I will probably mask in crowds but it is great to be relaxed about it questionseverything May 2021 #1

Just keep in mind that Dr. Fauci ALSO told you not to wear one for months Ms. Toad May 2021 #2

You were right the first time. See post 32. It's an interview where Fauci says we don't need masks. Scrivener7 May 2021 #43
