Oversized Stanley Mugs - please explain
Discussion
With looking after yourself and staying hydrated now suddenly becoming more important than ever before it is important to demonstrate that you are doing so along with wearing your gym clothes to make sure people know you have just been to the gym or plan on doing so at some point during the day.
How did you not know? Top tip, I 'get my steps in' and saved £50 by not having one of these and walking to the water cooler multiple times a day.

Most people these days care about what others think about them, or they think having something materialistic and matching everyone else brings a sense of belonging - all £45 worth of belonging.
Others like me think that a couple of thin crinkly plastic water bottles from an Aldi 12 pack is cool.

My daughter (11) has probably 8-9 different Stanley cups in various sizes but mainly 30 and 40 oz
They’re not particularly expensive and it’s harmless and if it makes kids want to drink water I’m all for it.
Lots of people in the head office for the company I work for use them, loads of people had them on the train to/from london last week. They’re just a popular addition right now.

Woman I work with has one of the huge Stanley mugs...
She's had health problems in the past as she wasn't drinking enough water (ended up in hospital a couple of times!), so fair play to her for taking her health seriously and making sure she gets enough fluid on board every day (no seedy comments, please).
Apparently a lot of people in her age group (she's 18) have had similar issues as they were just used to drinking energy drinks all day and nothing else. Anything that gets people drinking water is not bad thing IMO.
I use a Sigg 1 litre bottle in the office (got a couple of them): 7 years old or so and have been a faithful companion on hundreds of hiking trips so they've paid for themselves many, many times over

Anyone remember the Sports Direct mugs from around 15 years ago?
Could fit about a litre of coffee
As for the craze, could you actually be arsed?
I believe it now one of those mysteries of the universe who buys those mugs and when and how they appear in office kitchenettes?Could fit about a litre of coffee
As for the craze, could you actually be arsed?

Same goes for those free Cadbury Mini Egg / Creme Egg mugs that always end up badly faded and scratched on the inside (stirring a drink in one is like fingernails on a blackboard) due to the office dishwasher.
As for fashion statement mugs and flasks, the profile usually the same: Gymshark clothing ans clumsily bumbling through the doors, clutching a sports holdall in in one hand and the mug/flask loosely in the other.
