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.

    I mean it would probably just about last a lifetime. Stanley are good bottles. Do you go through water bottles fast somehow?

        Well that’s not the water bottle’s fault. If you’re prone to losing things then yeah a lifetime purchase isn’t for you. I don’t buy nice sunglasses for that reason, lol.
