Thread: Travel Mugs

"C" strikes my fancy, SS is always better!

I am adding this one to the selection. If they had a darker blue I'd like it, but of these 2 I probably like the black.

Maybe I'll order some of these all-plastic mugs for those who want to put them in the microwave. It might look nice with the TSP Talk logo..


I looked up the ceramic mugs, but even they had the stainless lids.

I like "C" as well. I didn't much care for the black ringed one. I had two and one broke pretty quickly. I really liked the other type I had, but unfortunately, I left it at Scott and White hospital a few months ago. Anyone seen it? There's a reward!!

I like the look of the stainless steel mugs, but for some reason I don't like how coffee tastes in them. Plastic doesn't hurt the taste, but they don't look very classy. So I guess we need to decide if we want a nice looking trophy mug, or a functional one. Ceramic is good except they lose the heat quickly.

I like C but I'm sure the design will have changed by the time I win another one.

Either way you decide, I'll probably buy at least one.

This one looks cool. On the expensive side, but perhaps a "1st thru 3rd Place Only" prize.





Also found this nice plastic microwavable mug (if you take off the lid). That looks like a stainless steel stripe but it said it was plastic.

Neat, my coffee always gets cold.

i prefer 'E' in black. or else the one with the handle, it reminds me of my first mug before i got a real one.

the rest with the rubber nubbies remind me of something you might see in an adult bookstore.

also, PO i love you man, but for all those who brew one pot a week and nuke it 4 more times... if you're so old fashioned and frugal to go that route then how did you ever learn how to use a microwave let alone justify the captial expenditure?

I always liked burro’s original mug.

Always hard to please, I would prefer one with a handle. Not that I ever expect to win one.

I might buy one, been thinking about it as my favorite travel mug disappeared at work one day.

Burro, I bought the microwave in 83 while posted to Scotland. I found leftover fish and chips to be in need of reheating to melt the white stuff. It’s a Panasonic and still going strong. So I believe the initial expense may have been justified, not sure. As far as operating it, it’s just a radio with a different kind of antenna. Magnetron, klystron, pretty much the same.

We should discuss my frugality elsewhere.

Tom, when you do decide will you still offer them for sale?

PO
