so i looked all over harrisonburg Va. for a 10 gal cooler. then looked online and found some. but i have to order it. anyone live around harrisonburg and know where to get one, or should i bite the bullet and order it online?
also they say that it is for cold liquid only. any comments on this?
thanks guys
 
From what I've found the 10 gallon versions are difficult to find except online. The 5 gallon ones are rather easy to spot. I think ACE hardware sells them online for ~$50 with free delivery at the store.
 
They appear seasonally in HD it seems. Most common in the spring. If they do have them, you may have to search a bit at this time of year.
 
You can also use a 12 gal. 48 qt. rectangular for batch sparging. available at most quality retailers??
 
haha yes i called our local ace and they wanted almost 10 bucks more then if i ordered it online from ace. but i think thats the way im going. online from ace. thanks guys.
 
Our local HD had the 10 gal. Rubbermaid cooler, but the personnel working there had no idea what I was talking about. "Coolers? We got no coolers. Maybe some small ice chests." So I walked back, looked around a bit, and there were both the 5 and 10 gal orange coolers. So when I walked back to the front of the store with one and told them they had them, what I got was "Whyncha tell me you meant a water dispenser?"

Might as well be talking to the wall......
 
I picked up a 48 qt coleman cooler with drain @ sears for $20.

The price online at sears was cheaper than the store price.

The manager matched the online price and I was able to pick it up instead of waiting for it to be shipped.

When your excited about beer, it's hard to wait!:)
