It does for me. I like Yeti products but given the most recent statements I don’t think I want to buy any.

I’m not getting rid of what I have, but future purchases will probably be other brands.

I bet some enterprising young chap from our own midsts could take advantage of this and produce a cheaper cost alternative that provides the same features and benefits.....

Which part sucks? The part about the NRA making crap up abput Yeti? The part about Yeti waiting 3 days to reapond (well, it was the weekend), the part about Yeti being overpriced and the NT+RA acting like babies (that was really disappointing) or the part abput everybody pitching a fit before all the details came out?

If only there were reasonably priced alternatives to Yeti.

Don't switch because of the NRA brouhaha.

Read it just now. Sounds like more of the same. He said/she said.

The NRA often sounds like a Washington lobbying firm, which is essentially what they are, albeit for a constitutional cause I believe in.

Yeti's explanation sounds like a reasonable business decision, given their margins have been slipping.

Buying Yeti doesn't sound that way though .

I really have no dog in this hunt.

In terns of dollars spent the NRA is one of the smaller lobbying groups in Washington, DC.

Sounds too good to be true. I wonder how it would end for the enterprising young chap?

Most of yall use a yeti for beer. Drink faster or splurge for the extra bag of ice here and there.

Or of course, pre-cool your cooler to properly save on the extra 1.50 in ice...


I have to say, my cooler buying and gun buying will never be related to or contingent on each other.
