1. A one-piece blank for making a foldable corrugated cooler, the blank comprising: (a) a bottom panel section configured to define a bottom panel of the cooler when the blank is folded into a use configuration;(b) two side panel sections, each configured to define a side panel of the cooler when the blank is folded into the use configuration;(c) two end panel sections, each configured to define an end panel of the cooler when the blank is folded into the use configuration;(d) four corner panel sections, each configured to define a corner panel of the cooler when the blank is folded into the use configuration;(e) a handle panel section configured to define a handle panel comprising a lid segment and a handle segment, the handle segment comprising a first locking element, when the blank is folded into the use configuration; and(f) a locking panel section configured to define a locking panel comprising a second locking element adapted to engage the first locking element of the handle segment for locking engagement of the handle segment when the blank is folded into the use configuration;(g) wherein a score line extends between and divides the locking panel and one of the four corner panels when the blank is folded into the use configuration. 2. The one-piece blank of claim 1, wherein no score line extends between and divides the locking panel and either of the two end panels when the blank is folded into the use configuration. 3. The one-piece blank of claim 1, further comprising a second handle panel section configured to define a second handle panel comprising a second lid segment, the lid segments collectively defining a lid of the cooler when the blank is folded into the use configuration. 4. The one-piece blank of claim 1, wherein a surface of the blank configured to define interior walls of the cooler when the blank is folded into the use configuration comprises a moisture-resistant coating. 5. The one-piece blank of claim 1, wherein a surface of the blank configured to define a surface of the outside of the cooler when the blank is folded into the use configuration comprises a logo printed thereon for viewing when the blank is folded into the use configuration. 6. The one-piece blank of claim 1, wherein the blank comprises corrugated cardboard. 7. A single sheet of corrugated material having fold lines defining a blank for making a foldable corrugated cooler, the blank comprising: (a) a bottom panel section;(b) two end panel sections;(c) two side panel sections;(d) four corner panel sections;(e) two handle panel sections, each handle panel section including a lid segment and a handle segment separated by a fold line, the handle segment including a handle opening and two locking elements; and(f) two locking panel sections, a first locking panel section being integral with a first corner panel section with a score line extending there between, and being integral with a lid segment of a first handle panel section with a score line extending there between, and a second locking panel being integral with a second corner panel with a score line extending there between, and being integral with the lid segment of the first handle panel section with a score line extending there between;(g) wherein the first locking panel comprises a locking element adapted to engage one of the locking elements of the handle segment for locking engagement of the handle segment when the blank is folded into the use configuration; and(h) wherein the second locking panel comprises a locking element adapted to engage the other one of the locking elements of the handle segment for locking engagement of the handle segment when the blank is folded into the use configuration. 8. A one-piece blank for making a foldable corrugated cooler, the blank comprising: (a) a bottom panel section configured to define a bottom panel of the cooler when the blank is folded into a use configuration;(b) two side panel sections, each configured to define a side panel of the cooler when the blank is folded into the use configuration;(c) two end panel sections, each configured to define an end panel of the cooler when the blank is folded into the use configuration;(d) four corner panel sections, each configured to define a corner panel of the cooler when the blank is folded into the use configuration;(e) two handle panel sections, each configured to define a handle panel comprising lid segment and a handle segment of the cooler when the blank is folded into the use configuration; and(f) two locking panel sections, each configured to define a locking panel adapted to secure the lid in a closed orientation when the blank is folded into the use configuration;(g) wherein each of the two locking panels of the cooler is integral with a respective corner panel of the cooler and a handle panel of the cooler when the blank is folded into a use configuration, with a score line extending between and dividing the locking panel and the respective corner panel, and with a score line extending between and dividing the locking panel and the handle panel; and(h) wherein one of the locking panels comprises a locking element adapted to engage a locking element of one of the handle segments for locking engagement thereof when the blank is folded into the use configuration. 9. The one-piece blank for making a foldable corrugated cooler of claim 8, wherein no score line extends between and divides a locking panel section and an end panel section. 10. The one-piece blank of claim 8, wherein a said locking element comprises a tab and another said locking element comprises a slot.
