NEW Rubbermaid (Gott) 16100111 10-Gallon Orange/White C - eBay (item 110396174752 end time Jun-27-09 18:12:50 PDT)

If you have an Ace Hardware near you, you can always get them for $50 flat, with free ship to store.

If you're absolutely convinced you have to have a Gott and nothing else will work, then it's an OK deal.

One more opportunity for me to pimp the 50qt Igloo Ice Cube at Target. It's not round and you have to drill a hole in it, but other than that it does a great job and costs less than $20.

Home Depot sells the Rubbermaid's for $39.95 in the 10 gallon model.

My Home Depot only carried the 5 gallon. I used it for one batch and figured out I need the 10 gallon.

You can also go to Wallyworld and pick up a 60qt Ice Cube cooler w/ wheels for about 30 bux. The 48qt version can probably be had for 15-20 bux.

I heard that Tractor Supply has them in the $35 range. HD is where I got mine.

I bought the same cooler, except stamped "Home Depot" instead of "Gott" for $37.96 + tax at our local HD a week ago. While I don't particularly care for "logo" merchandise, this is -pretty much- the only 10 gal cylindrical cooler I could find in town, apart from the Igloo, which was $70 at the only place I could find it. The cooler is well injected with insulation, which is more than I can say for a lot of the cheaper rectangle / cube coolers out there, which are little more than a shell and a liner, and hollow in between. I know that some people have injected their own insulation into these, but why get into that....
I bought the conversion parts from Bargain Fittings, and everything went right into place, and no leaks.

That's too easy to fix... simply cover their logo with yours. I will eventually get to this point, once SWMBO comes up with a better copy of our logo.

I cover my crappy 48 qt. w/ a blanket. holds a constant temp pretty well. I got my cooler from Wally for around $18.

The round Gott is the way to go if you don't want to mess around
