The craze for Stanley stainless steel drinking cups reached new levels last week when a woman was arrested and accused of stealing 65 of them, worth almost $2,500, from a store in California.
Police in Roseville, in Placer County, northeast of Sacramento, said Sunday that they were called Wednesday to a report of a theft from a store on Stanford Ranch Road in the city.
“Staff saw a woman take a shopping cart full of Stanley water bottles without paying for them. The suspect refused to stop for staff and stuffed her car with the stolen merchandise,” police said in a statement on Facebook.
Stanley is OG though, I got one handed down from my gramps back in the day that still gets use. They just recently started wrapping them in colors other than black or army green lol
Yeah, they have always been bomb proof in terms of quality. Someone got the idea to slap some pastel or bright colours on them and white chicks went wild for it.
I don’t get it. I mean I get that it’s a fad, but why? Same with the fucking mullets; christ. Mullets were fucking terrible the first time around.
I’m getting older and that Abe Simpson quote about used to being with it is getting frighteningly accurate.
Sure, back when they were made in America, but Stanley has been dog shit at everything they have made since the 80’s when they started outsourcing all their manufacturing to China
That’s a good point, entirely new owners and all that. Definitely not still selling the “Stanley by Aladdin” thermos from the 70s.
I got one years ago but get annoyed with the over engineered press to sip lid because I have to wash it
