I have been searching and searching for the best price on sealed bottom neoprene koozies. 5mm Sealed: 3mm Foldable: I have received some samples of the foldable scuba, foam, and 3mm neoprene and I just do not like those nearly as much as I like the sealed bottom 5mm neoprene ones. The problem is cost. The FTN logo is a 4 color logo so that adds $.90 each to the koozie -- any of them. My total cost will be $4.96/koozie for the sealed bottom (setup, tax, shipping to me). I can get the foldable ones for a 50 cents less(3mm neoprene). The question for ya'll is -- Would you be willing to pay $5.50 plus shipping for the better koozie or does everyone want to go with the thinner, less stable (better chance of spilling your beer), foldable koozie? I could go even cheaper and get the foam foldable but I really do not like those. I have to order a min of 50 so I am not going to spend the money unless there is interest. Thanks, Thank you Lord for my family and the waters I get to fish

I like the foldable ones for just that reason...they're foldable! However, they do not provide a solid bottom, and the drink can tip over easily. I don't think $5.50 is too much. Have you priced any koozies for bottles? I'd really like to have a couple of those and would prefer FTN or TBH, but neither site has made up any of those, yet. Just curious! "Men and fish are alike.

My two cents - I personally like the thicker ones with a wider bottom and a hole in it. They fit in my drink holder better and are more stable. But you know - I'll take a couple no matter what you decide! All In A Days Fun!!!

Audra, tack on another buck fifty for the bottle ones. All I drink at home is bottles and I would definately use them but I do not want to get stuck with 40+ of them. BTW Aud, got the PP -- thanks. Thank you Lord for my family and the waters I get to fish

Go with what you like best and I'll buy 2. If you're richer than me I think we're related. If you're poorer than me I know we're related. My bass club webpage http://texbass.8m.com/

Just pick. $5.50 doesn't seem to be to much. I will take at least one. Vegatarian: Indian Word for Bad Fisherman

Are we promoting BWI? JUST KIDDING I like the folding ones like our TBH and TRB ones but would buy either. Picou since Bigdog has registered over here now have you checked with him and his wife about Koozies? You might could find them cheaper that direction. |

I'll do that because I talked to my ad lady yesterday and she said it will be a $35 screen for each color and my estimates were with only a single $35 screen fee. I was originally planning on buying 50 but maybe if I up that order to 200 it will even out the screen costs. I'll shoot an email to Bigdog...
