I was trash picking about a week ago in a multi millionaire neighborhood...
This clean box had kitchen stuff in it
With several items in that were brand new in the original packaging and unused!!!

One thing was a aluminum mug with handle and rubber bottom about the size of a large coffee cup, plus a lid with rubber gasket and open/ close sip hole...

This CONTIGO CUP RIVALS YETTI

AS GOOD AS YETTI IF NOT BETTER ..

NOT SURE HOW MUCH THEY COST? OR WHERE THEY ARE sold?

I load it full of ice, fill 2/3 with filtered water ( with lid off, it last all night long and still has 2/3 of the ice left in it...if I let it sit there...
It still has ice at 6pm the next day!!

Check them out, they are excellent πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

Looks like Target, Kohls, Meijer, and just maybe Amazon. $15-18ish

I do Rctic for the water bottle and Stanley for coffee. Both durable and can be used as a bludgeoning weapon if necessary

Rtic is better than Yeti and half the price, IIRC.

It could be stainless steel...

I didn't check and I don't think the material is mentioned on the mug?
It was prolly on the label...which I threw away...

I sure hope you didn't lift a box they had brought to the end of the driveway to load in the trunk to take Junior back to Swarthmore after mid year break!

What kind of a dumpster diver are you that can't tell the difference between Aluminum and stainless steel ?

RTIC is great and not ridiculously priced like Yeti.

I got a Contigo travel mug and not only does it maintain the heat of the coffee I swear it actually gets hotter, so hot that I don’t use it as it remains too hot to drink on the commute.

My 14 oz Contigo metal coffee mug with handle keeps ice water ( and the ice stays there unmelted) for 36-48 hours without the lid on...

I haven't tried it with hot coffee yet...
