I’m on a medication that gets delivered to me in a dramatically over packaged way every two weeks. Part of this packaging is a styrofoam cooler about 27x22x25cm and two unlabeled cold packs.

I currently have 7 of these and expect to be getting them for the rest of my life. Aside from just tossing them, do any of you lot have suggestions for what i can do with all these coolers?

    Make some styrofoam swamp coolers. My AC is not catching up this summer and I have a few of these due to some eyedrops I’ve been getting shipped to me. I’m seriously considering building one until I get my AC serviced when it gets cooler.

      Personally I really don’t think swamp coolers are worth it. If you wanna evaporate water to cool off, do it right on your skin using a damp towel instead of making the air all swampy for a slightly cool breeze. Towel+regular fan is much more effective imo

      I’d love that if it weren’t so humid here that they’re functionally useless. Though I am thinking about using them to insulate my attic to reduce heat transfer.
