Background
In July 2023, although I already had a cooler bag for grocery shopping or bringing cold stuff out, I thought of getting a small and cheap version to put in my bag and use when needed. As such, I decided to go to Daiso to look for one.
At Daiso, I found the Daiso Aluminum Cooler Bag - Box Shape For Six - 500Ml. Since it cost only 2.16 SGD, I decided to purchase it.
The Stuff
The Daiso Aluminum Cooler Bag - Box Shape For Six - 500Ml is made of aluminum, with a 2 zip flap opening and handle to carry around. Based on the packaging, the dimensions are 22cm width by 15cm depth by 17.5cm height.
Here are some pictures that I have taken to show what the stuff looks like:

Usage and Experience
I have had the Daiso Aluminum Cooler Bag - Box Shape For Six - 500Ml for more than a week since this post. As shown in the picture, instead of 6 cans, putting 8 cans is possible.
I like that it can be flattened when not in use. Therefore, I can put it in my Chrome Industries Buran III Messenger Bag for 17 Inch Laptop easily, and take it out when I need to use it.
I have tested putting 6 cans in the bag, and have the temperature taken before and 30 minutes later. I am surprised that the temperature did not increase a lot, hence I believe that it can last a few hours before it becomes "not cold" anymore. Else, if I am going for some outdoor activity and need cold drinks, I can bring this along with my cold drinks and put ice packs in it to keep it cold longer.

Overall, I feel that the Daiso Aluminum Cooler Bag - Box Shape For Six - 500Ml is a cheap and useful cooler bag to use and bring around. If you are interested in this stuff, you can head on down to any Daiso store and pick one up while stocks last.
