Back to School Supplies
I have been looking into back to school supplies. Not because I know much about it — I do not. But that is usually the best place to start.
I read through a bunch of notes, found some things worth passing along, plus a few product recommendations, and figured I would share what stood out.
Here is what I found.
Things to Know
- → Rotomolded coolers are the best bet, but you don’t need to spend Yeti money.
- → Get a cooler with a compressor if you really want no ice.
- → Get a divider, skip the rest.
- → RTIC is the best cooler for week-long camping.
- → Lighter colors actually help ice last longer in the sun.
Stuff to Buy
- ↗ Earth Pak 20L Dry Bag — Phone, wallet, keys stay dry. Worth every dollar.
- ↗ Mac Sports Beach Wagon with Wide Tires — Wide tires roll over sand. Thin wheels sink.
- ↗ High-Neck Racerback Bikini Top — Stays put in the water. No constant adjusting.
