Though I like them all, #3 is my personal favorite. I don't use it for anything except to look at...maybe I should start drinking out of them...Again!

I inherited the "Giant Swing" cup from 2007 from my parents. I have used it extensively so far.

new mugs are 10.00, refills are about 2 bucks!  that is for the big mug!

While they may be "new", when I was there a few weeks ago I decided to buy one. Low and behold it was from "An Old Time Christmas 2008". They said they didn't have their new ones in yet, so they brought some up from their warehouse to try to get rid of. I thought as of last week while I was there, they still had some other old mugs as well.

The mug I bought for my wife this year in April was for last year's Christmas celebration. I have one from the Christmas celebration four years ago. They both work fine for the refills.

I never thought about it really, but could you bring an old refillable mug, and still get the same benefits? What if you brought one of the old glass ones? ;D

You can bring the glass ones and get the refill price....be careful though lugging around; even with the thick glass...again can break. I've learned that, really embarrassing/sad when one breaks at the park. Especially because you can't get anymore.  :-[

We used to have a loop of cloth with a snap/ button on the end to serve as a belt loop to carry our mugs.

I think at that time, the leather shop belt loops to carry your mugs, but I could be mistaken.

Plastic Mugs are better insulated, and if damaged do not leave the safety hazards that the thick glass did.

I use those keychain (carabiners), I put the chain on the mug and clip it to my belt loop, works great if mug is empty, out of the way and you know where it is.

OK?!  funny.  I tried to spell check, and I am so far off the puter could not figure out what i was talking about!
