I haven't done one of these in a while. And actually, the last series I did was on Fridays, but whatever.


Anyway, I know some of you folks like a good quality low cost things and this is that. Caveat: it is made in China. :( It's a WalMart brand, after all.

But man, this thing is nice. Stainless steel. Double wall vacuum sealed. Dishwasher safe. Nice carry handle. Capacity is perfect for an all day outside work day at 64 oz. (maybe one refill if you are like me)

Keeps things cold Alllllllll day. Put some ice in your water, leave the closed jug in the sun, and at the end of the day you still have ice in the water. No leaks. No dribbling down your shirt through some port, and no straw to suck through. Just uncap and drink away.

Get two!

Some will die in hot pursuit
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain

    Available at walmart.com but it's the $15 I paid there.

    Three young boys were trying to decide what was the most amazing thing inthe world.

    One said " It has to be the thermos."

    " What's so amazing about the thermos?" asked his friend.

    He answered " If you put hot stuff in it, it keeps it hot. I you put cold stuff in it, it keeps it cold."

    The third boy asked " What's so amazing about that?"

    His answer: "How does it know?"

    I have the quart size; it's great. Tip: Buy the accessory cap with the small spout. Much easier to drink from without that ice avalanche down your shirt.

    I may be a bit crazy - but I didn't drive myself.

    My daily drink comes in 12 oz. aluminum already and I drink it before it gets too warm...

    I usually wrap mine in a Koozy or however you spell those nice can sleeves that keep your paws from warming up the beverage or keep your paws warm from holding the cold beverage.

    I highly caution anyone against using the website linked in the opening post (Mr. P - may want to remove the link if you can). Prices on gear struck me as too good to be true, so I did a little investigating. Everything I can find online indicates that the store is a scam/phishing attempt, with multiple people indicating placing orders but never receiving anything (just having their info stolen).

    Apparently, scammers just create the site by copying/pasting product details from Walmart, but highly discount the advertised price in order to bait you..... and then promptly steal your personal info, CC number, or PayPal payment.

    Go through Walmart or....Buyer beware!
