Starbucks Mugs Are The Best (hotels in las vegas) Travel Mugs
No commentsBy Jennifer Glick
If you drink a lot in the go or in the car, you know how common it is to spill your drink. Travel mugs solve this problem by making drinks spill free and leak free. Drink while you are on your computer without worrying about making a mess on your keyboard. Drink in your car and enjoy a full cup of your favorite beverage without worry about spilling it on your new leather seats. No more sugary messes in your car! No more drink flying everywhere when you have to slam on the brakes! No more wasted drink all over the floor when you trip on a step or have your arms full.
I am the world’s biggest klutz and travel mugs have made my life so much easier! They keep my drinks the temperature they are supposed to be, eliminate messes, and keep my sanity intact.
While there are tons of travel mugs on the market, Starbucks travel mugs are known to be some of the best available. The stainless steel travel mugs are the most popular. They are made with 18/8 stainless steel and are virtually unbreakable. Another bonus for Starbucks travel mugs are a non-skid surface - ensuring that your coffee won’t go for a slide.
Starbucks also has plastic travel mugs (aka tumblers). They come in many different sizes and designs including a flag/fourth of July travel mug, Christmas themed travel mug, hearts, Halloween travel mugs, and more.
In 2007 Starbucks released two limited edition Halloween tumbler/travel mugs. The first Halloween Starbucks mug was orange with pumpkins, stars, and Halloween treats on it. It was created with a 3D effect. The second mug is black and white and glows in the dark! The designs that glow include pumpkins, treats, stars, and random Halloween sayings. The Halloween tumblers are the standard 8oz size. These are not to be used in the microwave! Since they are limited edition, they are only available on eBay or collector websites.
The Grande To Go is Starbucks classic tumbler and weights in at 16 oz. It features double wall insulation to prevent condensation and regulate the temperature of your beverage. It is also stain and odor resistant (so your coffee does not end up smelling or tasting like your dishwasher or who knows what else!). It fits in standard car cup holders.
If your java addiction requires a larger fix, try the Miller Thermal bottle. This thermos is 20oz of beautiful stainless steel. The double walled sides keep your beverages the perfect temperature and the outer lid can double as a cup.
Brugo travel mugs boast that you will be able to enjoy your coffee at the perfect drinking temperature. Each sip is cooled to the appropriate temperature while the remaining coffee stays hot. These travel mugs retail around $20 and feature stainless steel inside a plastic sleeve.
If you’re looking for a travel mug with a name you’ll recognize, try the Thermos line. Yes, Thermos Nissan is now making Leak Proof Travel Mugs. They are made to fit in most car cup holders or can be clipped to backpack or bag. This lightweight stainless steel mug retails around $24.95.
Make your life easier and buy a travel mug today! There is no reason to continue to live in fear of liquids. Take back control!

Must Live By Best Vacation Tips so You Have a Wonderful Trip
By Joe Collinsworth
Traveling is such an enjoyable experience that we wish we could do it all the time. Unfortunately most of us only get a couple weeks a year (if we’re lucky) to take our vacations.
In order to ensure that those trips are the very best and everything we expect (unlike the many travel movies where there are nightmares around every corner), we want to provide our best vacation tips so your vacations are very memorable - in a good way of course.
Discount Florida Vacations Best Vacation Tips (these are in no particular order):
1. Plan early and book when a good deal fits your budget or smells right. There are more and more travel companies popping up everyday. Why? Because as the baby boomer generation gets older and once they boot their children out of the house, they are traveling more and more. Good deals are easy to find and there are many reputable companies that offer great rates and fares.
2. Know about your destination and the best times to travel. Remember when Chevy Chase takes the whole family cross country only to find out their favorite fun park is closed? Don’t let that happen to you. Know what is going on and when the best times to travel are.
For example, most people know that March and April tend to be spring break times. Well, if you take your little ones to Panama City Florida during these months, chances are you are going to run into wild, college kids. Bummer for your children and you.
3. Take care of things at home. Making sure the family pet or the house is taken care of is important. You don’t want to come home to a disaster after you’ve had a wonderful vacation.
4. Budget wisely. Even if you don’t have a budget it is smart to take care of your money. Make sure that if the worst happened you still have funds to fall back on. If you are on a budget be smart and enjoy doing things on vacation that aren’t going to have you taking out a 2nd mortgage just to pay for everything.
5. Don’t forget your important documents. There is nothing more frustrating than forgetting something when you are hundreds or thousands of miles from home.
6. Plan things to do ahead of time. Again, get to know your area of choice to determine how
close you are to various activities and restaurants. There is nothing like landing a great deal on a hotel only to find out it is miles from anything or in a location that is not suitable for a great vacation.
For example, a hotel that is so far away from the beach you need to catch a plane just to get there. Also, you want to make sure that everyone traveling with you will have fun! Again, in Vegas Vacation when the kids are too young to gamble, they have to come up with creative ways to have a good time (hence Nick Popagorgio).
7. Sign up for online newsletters and keep your ear to the ground about your destination of choice.
8. Read the fine print. This can really bite you in the behind on certain things like rentals and such.
9. Utilize a checklist and make sure everything is in order before and during the trip. From booking to packing to check in to relaxation, don’t forget anything.
10. Have fun and enjoy yourself. No matter what type of vacation you are going on, the goal is to not want to come back.
Those are our best vacation tips and we live by them each time we take a vacation. Hope you will too because we know your trip will be much more pleasurable.
