Okay so I’m switching it up. Today the bonus comes FIRST!
You may have noticed there’s an election a brewin’. And as any good campaign would have it, (thanks to George Washington’s buttons) there are plenty of promo products to go around.
Check out the Best, Worst and Weirdest Swag of the 2012 Campaign slideshow for some creative bits of swag. And don’t fret. I’m sure we’ll be diving deeper into the campaign trends soon.

Now that you’ve been thoroughly entertained, onto the matter at hand. This week’s promo product pick!
I bet that more than half of my posts and promo product picks are drinkware related. I apologize. But I can’t really help it. I just happen to be very passionate about my drinkware. I come by it naturally. And my husband is the same way. I’ve corrupted him so.
Being a promotional products professional, you learn a lot (A LOT) about pens, coffee mugs, totes, etc.. But the spouse of a promotional products professional? They KNOW what they like.
But I digress. That’s a story for another blog… Today it’s about the Econo Sturdy Sipper.
I really think this is my new favorite tumbler. This 16 oz. tumbler looks pretty innocent. And honestly, it’s a bit difficult to tell this one apart from the other tumblers with straws by looking at the picture. But I promise, this one is different.
The body of this cup resembles that of a traditional stadium cup with one huge difference: it’s double wall insulated. This means your beverage stays cold longer and messy condensation is minimized.
Now I’m just making an assumption on this point. I have yet to test this (meaning I have yet to accidentally drop my full cup on the concrete) but I have a suspicion that the construction of this cup will help prevent it from shattering on a short drop. But like I said, this has not been tested.
If you’re in the market for a new (and inexpensive) drinkware piece, give this sipper a chance!
Enjoy!
