the “i am not a paper cup” travel mug

Posted on | November 20, 2008 |

wait for it….wait for it…

after the popularity of anya hindemarch’s “i’m not a plastic bag” bag, we all knew that similar product lines of other household items would follow suit. case in point: the “i am not a paper cup” cup. the reusable porcelain travel mug tells the world how it is (in a slightly more formal voice than the famous bag). aside from being curious about why the makers, decor craft inc., opted to keep the name of their mug contractionless, i wondered how people would react to the usability and slightly steep price point (about $19).

the mug receives 4 out of 5 stars on amazon.com, and most reviewers did not gripe about the price. for those who are skeptical or just plain cheap, it does pay to keep in mind that starbucks and other coffee shops will either upgrade you to a larger size coffee or charge you less if you bring in you own container. if that alone is not enough to sway you, several males that i know have also reported the mug’s chick-magnet powers. if you’re gonna spend $60 on drinks trying to pick up girls anyway, isn’t a measly $19 more worth it? i think so.
