Best Ever Water Cup

So I bought a bubba 32 oz cup yesterday. It was $12 at Walmart, which is a little pricey for a water cup, but it's double walled and it has the best soft, flexible, oversized straw that helps you gulp down water twice as fast. I'm so in love with mine that I had to let you all know. If you struggle to get your water in, try one. You won't be sorry!

I got the Aladdin Mason for $9 something at Wal-mart.
I was also unsure about the price, but I've had the same experience.
No condensation, it hasn't stained, it looks cute, and the huge straw has helped me up my liquid consumption.
And I get compliments on it!

It's all about that awesome straw. Doesn't get stuck on ice cubes. Doesn't have those awful ridges that get moldy and gross. Helps you literally gulp water down. I feel like everyone should own one.0

OK...cynicism coming through again...
I didn't realize drinking water from a regular cup was so problematic that it required a $10+ solution.
I use one of the free cups I picked up in a goodie bag at a golf tournament I played in about 7 years ago at my desk at work.

Anyway - glad it works for you. I guess anything that encourages you to drink water is a good thing *shrug*0 -
My cup is Bubba brand also though only 22 ounce and no straw. Bought at Walmart a few weeks ago. Got it for a deal because their overnight stockers put the new Bubba cups on a clearance shelf with a bunch of others that were marked down. There were 4-5 in different colors there, no bar codes but a big sign saying $5. No way for a shopper to know that some of them were in the wrong place.0

So grateful for your snarky remark. Super helpful.0

Ps-whatever it takes to help us drink more water. I don't like drinking water. But this keeps stuff cold a while, and I know 2x emptied = 5 cups.0

Honestly I'm glad it works for you...no snark.
Maybe it's just a guy thing. I have the same reaction to the $200 purses my wife comes home with that apparently do a better job of "carrying crap around" than the $40 ones.0 -
I'm not a fan of the $200 purses either. Why spend all my money on something to hold money that I no longer possess? Kohls sale for me!
ETA: I'm cheap $40 is still too much.0 -

I work in an office, so having a cup that doesn't bleed all over my desk, and that has a lid in case I spill it is very helpful.
I used a regular cup, but in the back of my mind I always knew if that thing fell over on the desk it'd cause more problems than it was worth. And it bled and got liquid condescension on my desk.0 -

No $200 purses here.
But I did realize this weekend that I had a $55 pedicure tucked into a $4 pair of sandals.
Conclusion: I need to spend more on shoes.0 -

Well, as much as I hate to defy stereotypes, I haven't bought a purse since high school (two decades ago now) and don't typically make frivolous purchases. My previous "freebie" water cups, both given to me from the hospitals where my daughters were born, developed mold in the straw. So I set out to find a good cup that would last and serve its purpose well. When I found one that exceeded my expectations, I wanted to share in the off chance that others were looking for the same thing that I was and hesitant to spend money in case the product did not follow through.0 -

Sounds like you and the Mrs. would get along quite well.
I never hear of how much was spent on a shopping trip...just how much was...cough..."saved"...cough0 -

That's what I have for work and love it! Everyone comments.0 -
And thus the liberating reality of earning my own money and being single.
I can spend it however I want, and no one can ***** because it's MINE.
And I can still rock the $4 sandals to the mall, although it is time for an upgrade.

The closest I have ever come to buying an expensive drinking cup anywhere was at Walmart. It was one of those infusion cups where you can add fruit or mint leaves and infuse flavor into your water. In the end, I couldn't justify the cost. I did wind up with a Brita filtering water bottle, but you can practically feel your head imploding while trying to pull water from the opening. lol
More often than not, I just use a regular drinking glass at home and reuse a water bottle at work a few times.0 -
