As most my friends here know I love and drink a lot of coffee. And I love my big mugs as well for coffee. Well I took the grandsons to the races recently and got this mug for $5. It's from one of the NASCAR loal tracks I frequent. Elko Speedway in Elko Minnesota, about 35 miles south of Minneapolis. I have a lot of coffee mugs as you can imagine. Do you like coffee "cups" or the larger mugs such as this one? I have to have my big mugs personally. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

I have a hugemungus plastic mug that I keep in the refrigerator full of water. I will often use it in the summer to make lemonade (sometimes Lynchburg Lemonade). It is great to carry around while I am working out in the yard.

I have found that as a coffee drinker you are always looking for big mugs that you can put more than just one cup of coffee in. I have large mugs that will hold at least 2 cups in one mug. As a coffee drinker you will find yourself collecting mugs and the next thing you know the cabinet is full of mugs to the point you have to throw away the small ones that you don't use. That is something that you will keep doing until you find the right cup.

I hate it when I use the regular coffee mugs especially sitting at the puter doing myLot. I don't like having to get up for refills so often is the main reason for my big mugs. dad and my wife use the regular cups. Ugghhh! HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

the small cups are for just one cup of coffee and you have to have a cup that at least holds 2-4 cups in one mug. Have a nice one.

I am not a coffee drinker even though I love the smell of it but I do have a big thermal Dallas Cowboy mug that I use for my ice water. In the mornings I put ice and water in it then through the day as the ice melts I add more ice and I always have ice cold water. It also has a lid so when I travel I can take it along with me. I like the looks of your new coffee mug.

I've a couple travel mugs for the car as well. But a lot of them don't fit in my cup holders. Less stains on a carpet is always good. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

I drink mugs when I am going out the door. If I choose to stay at home then I just use a coffee cup. I'm not to picky about it. I'm not really a coffee fanatic.

I like coffee cups more than I like the larger mugs. I love my coffee and generally drink close to three pots a day. I can't go a day without it.

I like mugs that mean something to me. My avourite mugs are the ones rom my favourite cafes; one from The Second Cup here in Guelph, and another from a cafe in Arizona, that closed soon after Christmas. Thought the cafe is closed, I'm glad to have the mug.

I have a favorite coffee cup, but I do have a huge coffee mug that I also use. I think it holds like a half a pot of coffee. That is my 'to go' cup. I take it everywhere with me. Plus, I use it after supper since it can go in the microwave. For a full cup of coffee it takes only 2 1/2 minutes in the microwave.

Yes. I sure know you love to drink coffee and eat chocolate too LOL. I like to drink black coffee. I used to use cream and sugar but not anymore. I have alot of coffee cups too but not alot of mugs. My husband loses them so I stopped buying more than two at a time. I like to use a coffee cup at home and take a Mug with me when I travel.

I tried that fancy shamncy chocolate coffee and was disgusted. Ewwww! I'll drink a mug and have a candy bar with it but not in the same mug. I drink black only at the A.A. club and casinos. At restaraunts I use cream and sugar. But at home I use Coffee Mates French Vanilla creme only. Odd as I vary by the places I drink it at. No idea just me and my oddities.

Hi Grandpa Bob, We have the standard kind of boring glasses at home. They may have different pictures on them and be from different manufacturers but they are all about the same size. I drink water or coffee or tea in the same glass. Boring really LOL.

Hi GRANDPA BOB! I do drink coffee or tea in a cup. haha..I don't like the big mugs because I can't finish it and it will be such a waste. However, my hubby have these big coffee mugs and he just loves them. Most of his big mugs were freebies from hotels, restaurants, companies and some were given to him as gifts. Take Care and God Bless! Celebrate Life!

I like them because I like my coffee cool actually and not hot. So being this big it lasts a lot longer at times. Or so it seems anyhow. HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

I usually only drink coffee at work, so I tend to use the styrofoam cups that they provide. Though I do have smaller coffee mugs that I should start using again. Maybe I will start using one tomorrow!

Wow that is some mug. I don't drink coffee but I drink lots of tea and like that in a large mug too as a small one is gone in no time at all. I also have to have two mugs before I even start the day each morning. Ellie :D

Hi Grandpa Bob I love the big mugs too. I have one big one that someone gave to me that has Ken Griffey Jr's picture on it with a bat in his hand. Its huge.Seems like over the years my son has give me huge mugs with all sorts of pictures on them, even one of a picture that was the same as a picture that used to hang on our living room wall when I was a kid on the farm. Its a herd of wild horses running as lightening streaks down the sky and the sky is all dark.
