B&M shoppers can stay both hydrated and stylish with the store’s fresh take on a cup that rivals a high-end Stanely. The budget version is also great for keeping your bank balance healthy as it’s more than £40 cheaper than the popular brand which shows you don’t have to make a huge investment to stay on trend.
B&M was inspired by current fashion trends this season – bows and florals – to sell these “cute” and “expensive-looking” cups. An Instagram update showcased a staff member flaunting the £3.50 double-wall drinking tumblers, which are available to grab while stocks last in B&M’s across the UK.
The post reads: “At just £3.50, we’re completely obsessed with these new double wall drinking tumblers at B&M.” It added: “If you needed an excuse to drink more water, this is it!”
Each cup is leak-proof and boasts a 550ml capacity. It features a pink lid with an integrated straw. One design has pink bows on a soft white background, while another matches the lid’s pink colour perfectly and is sprinkled with small daisies.
If you’re eyeing up a legitimate Stanley cup, the Iceflow Flip Straw Tumbler is the most similar-looking one to B&M’s version. It holds 900ml but costs £43 – a figure that might make B&M’s alternative a little more tempting to some, reports the Mirror.
The NHS recommends that people aim for about two litres of water daily, which can seem challenging. But this handy B&M cup only needs to be filled up and finished off four times throughout the day to hit that target.
Shoppers could barely contain their excitement over what the retailer had in store, with praise for the product already pouring in. In the comments, one viewer said: “I’m gonna cry if these aren’t in my store!”
Another added: “Give me everything with bows. I’m obsessed with this trend!” Plenty of love was shown for the floral option too. A third customer posted: “I’m in love with the flowers. So cute!” Someone else tagged a friend and declared: “We need to get matching cups ASAP!”
Customers quickly pointed out that B&M’s post only showcased half of the available designs. Online, shoppers can discover two additional designs – a grey bottle adorned with footballs and a navy blue option featuring dinosaurs.
The B&M website has a warning that most options are running low on stock, so those interested should act now before it is too late. You can use the online locator tool here to find your nearest store.
