cardboard things that let you carry 4 beers at a time

[fred_easey]

OK a guy at my work is trying to find a place that sells cardboard things that let you carry 4 beers at a time one handed eg

He found this place here:

http://www.portabottle.com/product_page.php?page_id=16

...but they are mad expensive.

Does anyone know any other companies that sell these things?

(sorry bit of a longshot posting this in an overclocking forum but he is desperate )

make one?

piece of wood/plastic with 4 holes, and 2 pieces of string to carry it, easy as

 

[fred_easey]

He needs a few thousand and branded to boot, so making them would be a bit tricky

I tried googling for "beer carrier one-handed" but it seems these potabottle guys have some sort of monopoly

Surely they're designed so that you can carry 16 at a time

these are a godsend at gigs, i think last time I saw the who in northhampton was when I had one of these genius things last. Brilliant, you don't miss part of the gig going to the beer tent.

if he's buying that many surely he'll get a discount? or are they a bulk supplier anyway?

How about 33 (and a bit) pints?

lager is fowl out of them, and the people who are on them con't pull a half decent pint. Idk whether it's because they're polish, or because the taps on them are rubbish.

Well it's the best suggestion I've had so far

Will send it across to him and see what he thinks...

(basically we're sponsoring a pub tent at the Cheltenham Festival and are looking for ideas of cool stuff we can hand out to people)

Have you looked at the fold out card wine bottle holders you can get in supermarkets to carry 6 bottles? Designed for wine but I use them to hold bottles of ale, they look about the right size for pints too.

I think that booze would be the best received of any gift.

4? You can carry 4 easy. Tell him to grow some and be a man

 

[Dogoid]

i can carry 6 pints at a time. 4 in my hands which my chest is supporting the rear 2 pints, and 1 in each arm by the elbow whilst gently squeezing for support.

 

[domyboy]

Or...just tan the 4 pints before u leave the bar and then u dont need to carry anything

Agreed, you don't even need very large hands to carry 4. Apparantly 5 is easier as they lock in together

Not in plasitc cups you can't, especially if there is stairs.
