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.

300hp 1800lbs is the goal

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.

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

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.

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.
