“While Stanley Quenchers are all the rage, we strongly advise against turning to crime to fulfill your hydration habits,” police said.

The craze for Stanley stainless steel drinking cups reached new levels last week when a woman was arrested and accused of stealing 65 of them, worth almost $2,500, from a store in California.

Police in Roseville, in Placer County, northeast of Sacramento, said Sunday that they were called Wednesday to a report of a theft from a store on Stanford Ranch Road in the city.

“Staff saw a woman take a shopping cart full of Stanley water bottles without paying for them. The suspect refused to stop for staff and stuffed her car with the stolen merchandise,” police said in a statement on Facebook.

    I mean… It’s a lot of metal… And it’s strong enough to survive the job site for a decade.

    As someone who frequents construction sites for my job, and also as someone who has owned a Stanley travel mug and water bottle before whatever the fuck this fad is ( over 10 years… ), they are nigh indestructible, and they keep temperature for longer than either my wife’s Hydro flask or my yeti. So far in that sams period only my, Yeti coffee mug has survived as long. My wife has replaced her hyroflasj twice.

    Just anecdotal, but I tend to be hard on things, and it’s stayed with me this long… It’s like $4/year for a coffee mug.
