Yeti, I get it now
 
Got a Yeti travel mug as a gift.

Made myself a cocktail last night.

Put the Yeti down around midnight, uncovered.

Had a few ice cubes left in it.

Tidying up this morning, picked it up around 9, still had ice in it.

Very disappointing... I was hoping for a Christmas/bigfoot thread.

Not bad for a $59.99 travel mug :--)

No idea what they cost, but everything in their line is expen$ive

:eek: Is that what they cost?

EDIT: $35 on Amazon but still, I'd never drop that kinda coin on a mug myself.

Uh yeah....

I saw they are on sale at Cabella's for boxing week. Couldn't stop laughing. $250 for a soft sided cooler, $40 for a travel mug. A fool and their money are soon parted.

Have had a Yeti mug for about a year. Yes, keeps ice overnight.

Scott gets to open his gifts on the eve of the 22nd?????? Not fair...

I was a little disappointed in my mug. I put hot water in to warm it prior to filling with coffee and it didn't seem to do much better keeping coffee warm than my normal mug.

you can get double walled aluminum mugs cheaper than yeti...Google.

RTIC has been making equivalents for cheap for a while (and of course Yeti sued them).

Was the last night of Hanukkah and since I'm Jewish by injection I went for it.

We have his/her double wall water bottles for our cars, not sure what we paid for them. Kinda waste on me because I prefer my drinking water at room temperature and I don't drink coffee in my car.

Yep that yeti stuff is crazy expensive!

I've been using a double walled SS mug that has amazing insulation plus the most comfortable mouthpiece I've ever found.

Granted it' doesn't have a cap to close the spout but I love the thing.

$10 at Walmart. http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1514063438.jpg

AncestryDNA says I'm 25% Lithuanian Jew so I opened up 25% of my presents over commemorating the rededication of the Holy Temple in Jerusalem at the time of the Maccabean Revolt against the Seleucid Empire.

Kibbitz on that ya goyim! I know, I'm gornisht helfn. Oy vey! Mazel Tov and shalom.

Original poster neglected to tell us that he keeps the temperature of his home at a balmy 35 deg F...

When I lived in Montreal, 35 WAS balmy.

Search Youtube for the tests where the $10 Ozark Trail mug from WalMart beats the $60 Yeti in head to head testing. They look identical, probably made in the same factory.
