<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> In addition to reusable bags, I use a large insulated ice chest on</FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> wheels with a telescoping handle (somewhat like a large carry on</FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> luggage cart).</FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> </FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> I throw two blue ice packs in it from my freezer, and it keeps items</FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> from spoiling - especially helpful in the summer. However, I find it </FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> so convenient that I use it year round.</FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> </FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> It is easier to haul stuff because of the wheels and its big (fewer </FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> trips to the car to carry it all in). Sometimes its a bit too heavy and </FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> I remove a few items and carry them separately.</FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> </FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> At first, it was difficult to remember to take along but now its S.O.P.</FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> Finding a convenient place to store it was key.</FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> </FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> I put the cooler in the shopping cart and take it into the store with me</FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> as I shop. Cold and frozen items go directly from the store shelf to the </FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> cooler. No chance to thaw etc. Actually, I put frozen items in a double </FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> layer - first into a reusable insulated bag with its own blue ice and then </FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> that bag goes in the cooler. (Department of Redundancy Department).</FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> </FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> I use my cooler a lot and it gets knocked around so I needed a tough </FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> exterior. I found just the cooler I wanted (wheels with a tall handle and </FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> a hard plastic exterior) at WalMart for about $30. You can see a couple</FONT></div>
<div><FONT FACE="Arial" SIZE=3> of similar models on their web site.</FONT></div>
