That reason must be jealousy.


I wore this Boo-Jee t-shirt for Halloween. Might be funny for you to wear it

Is it bougie or just basic? Funny shirt though

My teen brought home a bottle full of water every day. Eventually she stopped taking it saying it was a pain to carry around. No stanley

Tweens/teens wanting the cool thing to fit in with their friends is hardly some brand new concept. Don't think of this as buying a water bottle. Is this something you are willing to spend the money on getting your kid the cool trendy thing they want?


My dad is 77 and still remembers asking for Levi jeans and getting Lee jeans for Christmas. My mom remembers getting the wrong coat as a kid one year. Kids today think they invented everything but are wearing the same shoes, shirts, and styles generations before them wore first.

Can she speak to my daughter? She bought herself a knock off stanley that she uses at home. I still find a ton of cups in her room.


Once I bought the Stanley my kid only uses it. It keeps ice forever and it's dishwasher safe. The cheaper cups weren't.


My Starbucks bottles keep ice forever too. It’s ok to say she wanted one and you bought it. There are $200 water bottles out there. Lucky they didn’t find those.

Same. My 6th grader was telling me about the girls coming back from vacation with their Taylor Swift sweatshirts and holding massive Stanley cups. They put their oversized cups on their desks taking up half the desk. They’ll be tired of lugging it around soon enough.

There was a video showing women in crocs and Uggs and sloppy sweats waiting in line overnight in Target for a new color. Sold out in 4 minutes.

I always wonder how many of the high schoolers have something a lot better than water in their cup.

It is cringey. It is also developmentally appropriate. I didn't get the coveted Benneton sweatshirt and the PP did but my guess as adults we are both equally well-adjusted, but we also remember the hot trends.

Sure I can get something cheaper but it's like when she got Calico Critters years ago for Christmas - she didn't need them, I could have gone with the cheaper Target Woodland model, but it was a fun gift for her and part of giving and receiving gifts is about fun.

I would not buy one of these if not for a special occasion (Christmas, birthday, etc) and she doesn't bring it to school because it doesn't fit in her backpack. She did bring it to basketball practice last night, though.

For those who are so down on Stanley...do you only buy gifts that are at the lowest possible price point and 100 percent practical? We are not rolling in money over here but for holidays there are a few "splurge" items under the tree and Stanleys this year were part of them.


I agree. This is not something I think it a waste of money. Best $45 gift.

I just think it's weird how these teens/tween girls are going nuts over them. At 10, I used to get excited over a nintendo or holiday barbie. Not a mom water bottle.

I've heard these things called Stanleys a million times but somehow never made the "Stanley Cup" connection until I saw this thread title.

D'oh.
