Nice neoprene insulator for half barrels. Figured I'd post the deal here

How well do you think this would work on a MLT?

 

[atjsparty]

Hmm, good thought. I have a similar one for a corny keg. It isn't super insulation, but I'd say it's better than nothing, but likely wouldn't maintain temp for the full $60 minutes. But, for the price, could be worth the experiment.

I'm going to order one up for my BIAB Kettle; I always wrap it with an Old blanket (a bit bulky);


Maybe a better way?

In for one - not sure how well it will work but I'll give it a try for $20

I thought the same thing! Anbody thought/used if so let us know! I just bought a Kegglove for my corney's that alone was 25 bones... (was at Michigan Beer Fest and a lot cheaper than on line) http://keglove.com/

I bought one for my mash tun... Hopefully it works out....either way... $25 is a small price to pay...

Anyone attempt to redeem this today?

I tried and the price of the Kegskin goes to $0.00, but the shipping charge is $14.35 --- not the $5.50 stated in the Groupon.

I tried today too, the price doesn't change with the groupon code. It did let me choose a $5.20 shipping option, but still shows 39.99. Scam?

I don't think it starts until 3/6?

Edit: Never mind, it WAS supposed to be 3/4/12. Just checked my original page.

I am also unable to make the coupon code work. How were you able to enter it?

 

[malevolent]

Wow that website... horrible grammar on the "About" page. If you can't use the right there, their, or they're on your products homepage, there is an issue.

I emailed the kegskins site as well as groupon. The kedskins site folks have already responded (a couple of times), and I've replied with additional information. Hopefully this gets fixed quickly. I also gave them a link to this thread....

Hi all--
This is Alex from KegSkins. We're looking into why some of the Groupon discount codes are working for customers and why some aren't. We're also looking into that $14.35 shipping cost -- though that's the first we've heard of that issue (perhaps a non-USPS shipping option was chosen?). Stay tuned. And thanks for your patience.

Alex, thanks for jumping onto the thread, I'm glad I gave you a link!

Where do you enter the code? I wasn't given the option..

 

[GTengineer10]

I got mine successfully. Click "add to cart" then enter your code as the "Discount code" and click "Apply coupon". Whether it works or not I guess is a role of the dice. But there is clearly a place to enter the code.

 

[sv_1]

When I click add to cart it takes me to paypal. The on?y place for a code shows up in the bottom right corner, and the code I was given does not work.

 

[GTengineer10]

Are you using this link? http://gr.pn/Aj1Pds

If so and it is going to paypal. Then try logging out of paypal (if you are logged in) and try again.

That's really all I've got for suggestions.

 

[JRems]

I got it to work, I don't know why it didn't work before but I was only charged the $5.20 for shipping.

 

[TonyR]

Able to get it to work by using http://gr.pn/Aj1Pds

 

[sv_1]

I wasn't. It worked, but charged me 6.50 for shipping...

Good. I was charged 5.50 for shipping...So maybe it just varied a little on location. Now I just wish they gave a tracking number.

 

[lagavulin]

Yeah guys, I was using chrome and for some reason the browser was not listing the $5.20 shipping option.

I just completed the transaction with IE and the code worked and shipping was $5.20.

Cheers!
