    Anyone else a season ticket holder for the Texans? They sent a gift of the cup (you had to elect it) that was unbranded, but looks like a Yeti to me. I say Yeti because I think the other lids are a little different. Pretty cool anyhow, now I have two of these kinds of cups, and I don't have to share with my wife.

    All of RTICs drink ware is currently 20% off, not sure for how long.

    At this point, the walmart tumblers are so good and cheap, there is no point in buying a RTIC or Yeti.

    I didn't know these existed. I've bought Ozark Trail (?) gear before in a pinch and it's tolerable, I'm sure their yeti knockoff stuff works just fine. For $10 I might just buy a few and not worry about loaning/losing them.

    I'll support a Houston based company but that's just me.

    Drats, last week just ordered 3 30 oz tumblers through Amazon (which were delivered by mistake to my daughter's in Huntsville, so I haven't even seen them yet).

    The Ozark Trail tumblers at Walmart were sold out for a while. I noticed you could order and pick up at a local store (Conroe, at 336) so if anyone is thinking of getting them you may want to do it right away.

    Thanks for the heads up, think I'll order one just to check it out. All I have at the moment are Yetis.

    Edit: Tried to buy two but unfortunately there's a one cup limit. :(

    I have a 32 oz RTIC which was gifted to me.

    Works really well.

    4-3 roadtrip is a success by any measure, right?

    doesn't matter if we win tonight or tomorrow. these games are unimportant. road trip was already a success.

    RTIC's website is damn near optimized. It's a thing of beauty as far as it goes.

    Dang, all the fancy ones are sold out.. I LOVE the Ozark trails one, and it's already $10, but it would be nice to be able to get a couple different colors so everyone in the family would know which one belongs to which person.

    Man I love putting a tumbler of ice water on the nightstand and having ice water right there when I first wake up in the morning. Can't do that in any other kind of cup I have ever found.

    I've been a Yeti fan since I bought my first 32 OZ at Bucky's a couple years back. I recently bought a black RTIC at Bucky's on a road trip back to Houston. I love the mat black finish but it doesn't fit the cup holder in my truck as well as the Yeti. I dropped both off to get some engraving done and I'll have them back tomorrow. Drinking out of a Tervis just isn't the same. 1st world problems.
