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.
Yeah, cant deny that. Relative to no bottle, it’s better. Relative to other bottles, it’s bad. A middle ground would be nice. Id like to think that maybe the fad-aspect of it will increase the amount of water bottle users over all, but I’m very pessimistic about that. edit: spelling
