Your nephew sounds like a thieving piece of shite.

I just got an ORCA cup for my birthday last week and it , I think , is better than Yeti as well. Hold I've for 4 days. And it DID come with 2 stickers. She got it at Hibbets. I never heard of ORCA before receiving it.

Yeti all the way.

Then you can wear Yeti hats and shirts. You can get Yeti bumper stickers for your truck. There are just way to many upsides on owning a Yeti.

Your nephew is stealing them, they were not left behind.

A Yeti wouldn't last through the 4th Q, there is no way they are there the next day. Think about it.

Vacuum insulated water bottles have been around for years.

Why is there so much hype surrounding them now?

Because no one had the bright idea to make them into a tumbler until recently.

Wal-Mart isn't satisfied with just the tumblers. They've started selling the coolers.





Once they're back in stock, they're gonna sell a ton of those things.

Drinking out of my 32 Oz right now. Keeps drinks cold all day, there's no reason to pay double for a cup that does the exact same thing. Even if there was a performance difference, you would never have a drink in there long en


Exactly.

Unless you have a big glass of Whiskey "neat" in there it's gonna get germy by the end of a day. And if you are drinking that much whiskey, you ain't making it all day anyway.

You can never discuss the greatness of YETI too much.

As the country's foremost expert on the history of vacuum insulated water bottles, this is incorrect.

Kleen Kanteen made a beer pint tumbler before Yeti. The lid wasn't sold with it, and the lid that was sold sucked arse. The rambler and lid, once it arrived, was an all around superior product. Now it's been replicated a ton and even Kleen Kanteen is back in the game.

GOAT vacuum insulated bottles: Hydroflask

GOAT cup: Rambler (though all the alternatives are fine)

GOAT insulated pint (couple hours, not long term insulation): Stanley

Sams versions are going to be better because they don't have the Ozark Trail logo on everything

Send me $400. I'll get you a cooler from Sams for $39 that works as well, and keep the difference.

What do you drink that it takes all day, much less a couple of hours, to finish it? All of these cups are a fad and waste of money.

Yeah, I assumed they existed before, but Tervis really set the stage in that overall market and then Yeti and others did the same with metal cups. I'm genuinely surprised Tervis didn't and still doesn't make metal cups. They had the brand power already.
