Our first four mugs were found in a Wal-Mart back in April. This particular mug is tan and rounded. The material is particularly thick, meaning that this mug would be great insulation-wise.
The next mugs were located right beside the tan mugs. These black mugs are different from other mugs I've reviewed, in that they abruptly taper at the bottom. I've seen this style done before, but this will be the first time I've reviewed a mug of this type. It's made of a thinner material, so it might not work as well against coffee scalding.
This blue mug is interesting in that it's clear. Not meant to hold coffee, I suppose, but interesting all the same. It should be a nice mug, however, for holding iced coffee, and, of course, summer is just about here.
Our final mug from Wal-mart is a pair of mugs, white with either a quartet of black or shades of blue stripes across the middle. Lined at the lip with black, these mugs are made of a thin material, but still possibly good for that first cup in the morning (or night, depending on your sleeping schedule).
And, finally, a bunch of mugs I saw at a used furniture store. They are lean like vases, with a
bell-like opening, and are of a brownish green colour. They are thin, so coffee burns might be a problem. The price tag might also be a problem: approximately seventeen dollars for one mug. Just one, not the whole set, or even a pair! They're nice mugs, but not that nice. All of the Wal-mart mugs, by the way, were of a reasonable price; however, I must note that the mugs at the Dollar Store are a steal.Well, that's it for May Mug Mania! I can't wait for next year! And don't forget, you can still send me your mugshots (of the beverage- or pen-containing variety, please) to me at metal_enthalpy@yahoo.com. Come back next time for more mugshots (or filler)!
