I don’t think i saw a specific thread to talk about capitalism things we’re looking to buy, asking for/giving recommendations, where to buy, deals, coupons, etc. So making this
I have somewhat of a dumb dilemma. I had been mulling over buying a new water bottle lately, i like the orange colorway for the Yeti water bottles and the bonus connection is that my gaming alias is crab related and the orange color is called King Crab so that calls out to me in a silly way.
Anyway, tonight i decided to check their site just for shits and giggles and i noticed they were offering free customization. And honestly? I don’t know if i need someone to talk me out of this or not
It’s $40 free shipping and free customization.
Well, I’m not about to talk you out of that screaming deal.
Yeti bottles are amazingly good, and unlike some competitors they are dishwasher safe. Highly recommend.
Yeah, i had been thinking of getting one of the bottles in that colorway for like half the year now. I made sure i’m not being too impulsive and also ran this by my partner, and they were cool with it
This is a Slice Mini Box Cutter:
It has a ceramic blade that keeps its edge longer than a standard razor blade. The tip is rounded in order to make it slightly harder to stab yourself. The blade is spring-loaded so that as soon as you let go of the slider, it retracts. The blade is also reversible so that it can easily be used left-handed. There’s also an internal magnet so that it can easily be attached to a fridge or other metal surface. Finally, the blades are replaceable, although I’ve only ever had to do that once due to breaking one.
There are many ways to cut open a box, but I don’t know of one that is more thoughtfully designed. If you open and/or tear down a lot of boxes, I’d recommend one of these.
Note: there is another similar item with an orange slide. It intentionally does not have a spring-loaded blade, and the tip is pointed. I’m not sure precisely when these features would be useful, but they are available if you’d prefer them.
Good rec, we do break down boxes regularly so will check this out
That does seem pretty perfect for you if you want orange and crab!
My spouse has a bottle from Buzio that he’s outright abused. I don’t know how many times he has dropped it. I have one that has been treated rather more nicely but it also has a wider base. His is the car-ready type. Going on 4 years for each and I’ve had to replace one top once. They come with spare straw and straw cleaner. You can get replacement tops.
Their kid’s bottles have been great for Kitty. They all come with a spare top, spare straws, and straw cleaner. Needless to say, the kid has been hard on these bottles.
They are all easy to clean but not dishwasher safe. You can often find them on sale at Amazon or Walmart website.
I bought one of these for my Mum
for collage etc.
So after much waiting i have received my dumb Yeti bottle, and frankly. I love it
And yes, i have a posable crab figurine. I’m an adult. Maybe
It’s not dumb! I like it and I’m not even particularly fond of crabs. Take your joy where you can find it
One of my fave indie shops is having a black friday sale.
Here’s a pin of theirs i liked
I am incredibly impressed with my new bottle for cold coffee at the office. So easy to take apart and clean and really pretty. It isn’t emerald. Too much blue. It’s one of those colors some people will see as green and some blue with a nice sparkle. It is beautiful
Edit for picture
I know that zojirushi tends to rank pretty well for quality in their bottles so I’m not surprised. But really happy to know it fits your needs perfectly
