Stanley Tumbler Buzz
The everyday versions of these insulated drinking cups have gained internet fame in recent months, with fans expressing their admiration for the product on social media. In a viral TikTok video from November, Danielle showcased the aftermath of her vehicle engulfed in flames, expressing her shock over the Stanley Tumbler’s quality. “Everybody is so concerned if the Stanley spills, but what else? It was in a fire yesterday and still has ice in it,” she remarked, earning over 60 million views.
Now, shoppers are sharing videos of frenzied crowds rushing through stores to secure the limited-edition Stanley Valentine’s Day tumbler exclusive to the retailer.
In a TikTok video by user @victoria_robino_26, a swarm of shoppers can be seen pushing through to grab a cup despite “2 per guest” limit signs, with the entire inventory selling out in less than four minutes.
On X (formerly known as Twitter), a user posted a video showing eager shoppers sprinting toward a display stand stocked with the limited-release tumblers from all angles, including one person who seemed to fall to the ground in the frenzy.
Commenters on these posts chimed in on the intensity of the shoppers’ reactions, questioning the worth of the cups. “They’re nice cups, but I don’t get it,” one wrote, while another simply said, “It’s a cup with a straw!” Some chose to avoid the chaos altogether. “Meanwhile, I ordered mine this morning online,” one commenter shared alongside a laughing emoji.
These coveted cups are now appearing on resale sites, such as Poshmark, for prices of up to $240.

Step into the New Year with a chance for a fresh beginning, and what better way to kick off the year than with a New Year’s resolution? Many people set their sights on improving health practices, but these goals often fizzle out without a concrete plan in place.
Drinking more water in 2024 is a common goal for many people. This resolution is often chosen for its associated health benefits. Maintaining adequate daily water consumption is essential for preventing dehydration. Additionally, water is a calorie-free option, making it a practical choice for managing body weight and reducing calorie intake. This is especially true when replacing calorie-filled beverages such as sweet tea or regular soda.
New year of hydration.
According to the Mayo Clinic, men should aim for about fifteen and a half cups of daily fluid intake. Meanwhile, women should target eleven and a half cups. A general recommendation for everyone is to consume eight glasses of water a day. While this may seem like a considerable amount, incorporating more water into your daily routine can be surprisingly simple.
Consider drinking a glass before each meal, establishing a specific time schedule for hydration, and always having water within arm’s reach. Making these small adjustments can make increasing your daily water intake a breeze.
If you’re committed to keeping your water bottle by your side throughout the day whether at home, bedside, or on the go, you’ll want a practical option that ensures you stay hydrated. Luckily, there are plenty of choices catering to every type of water drinker.
For the summertime road trip, there are vacuum-sealed mugs. For marathon runners, there are squeezable bottles. And for those who can’t stand constantly refilling, there are gallon-size jugs. No matter your preference, there’s a perfect option to support your hydration goals in 2024.
Ready to find the ideal tumbler or water bottle to accompany you on your journey to better hydration? Check out our must-have picks below. Cheers to a hydrated and healthy 2024!
