The craze for Stanley stainless steel drinking cups reached new levels last week when a woman was arrested and accused of stealing 65 of them, worth almost $2,500, from a store in California.

Police in Roseville, in Placer County, northeast of Sacramento, said Sunday that they were called Wednesday to a report of a theft from a store on Stanford Ranch Road in the city.

“Staff saw a woman take a shopping cart full of Stanley water bottles without paying for them. The suspect refused to stop for staff and stuffed her car with the stolen merchandise,” police said in a statement on Facebook.

    This Stanley cup thing is pissing me off because I have one of those green trigger coffee mugs that needs a new lid. You can’t get replacement parts for practically any Stanley cup.

    I could get a different coffee cup, but why should I change when it’s these TikTok water cup weirdos that suck?

      I get a serious “Michael Bolton” vibe from this comment, but I completely agree. TikTok ruins everything.
