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.

    I still get confused when I hear women talking about these. For a split second I always think I’m going to have a new friend to talk about hockey with.

      If you want to talk hockey to me, that’s fine. I’ll pretend to listen while fiddling with robot guts.

      My NFL-fan-friend still hasn’t figured it out.
