@PooltoyWolf@troy I thought you meant that you consumed the beverage, and now don’t have anything left in the can to keep cold… I was going to suggest just getting another can of the beverage, but I see that that would just reopen a fresh wound. Nothing to see here…
Bought 2 when they first dropped and was skeptical…liked them so much I’ve bought 6 more as gifts.
I use them mainly for canned drinks in my vehicles as they’re spill proof and fit cupholders well for irregular can shapes that tend to spill because physics.
Do these things keep opened cans of carbonated things carbonated meaningfully longer? Could I, for example, open a can to use a as a mixer for someone’s drink, and then put the can in this gizmo to keep it carbonated for, say, another 6 months or a few years or so? Or at least maybe a day?
@warpedrotors But “A&W Root Beer has that frosty MUG Taste” — I still remember the song. I think back then an ad song was called a “Jingle” but haven’t heard that term in years.
At old A&Ws, you got root beer in a heavy glass mug coated in ice. I think they must have misted water on the mugs when freezing to build up an extra icy layer. As a kid, it was good.
EDIT there were also some places that had soda-fountain “Sarsaparilla” which was close to root beer but when I look it up it is slightly different root origin. Also was always done with fresh carbonation and hand-mixed syrup.
@pmarin@warpedrotors Damnit that jingle is burned into my brain now! Do you remember the ad that showed you how to manipulate your hand into the shape of a mug and that was how to properly consume A&W? Think of the “Hang Loose” sign and you’ve got it!
I bought these in a 2 pack late last year, these are great for the golf course, for keep whatever beverage you are drinking, cold. You will still need to wash them, as, with the opening under the cover, some will drip down to the bottom of the cooler.
I have about 6 of these. I use them on kayak trips in the summer. Keeps the nasty river water out of the drink, while keeping it good and cold. Probably end up buying more.
I have something similar to these that work by the can sliding into a ring that then screws into the cup part. I’m a bit confused at how lids for these work?? Also I’m going to make a WAG that these are metal? Correct?
@catthegreat@chienfou Basically, there is a sliding lid that opens on the top. The underside of the lid is a soft rubber gasket that surrounds the hole. You open the beverage, put the can in the holder. Then, line the opening in the lid with the flip top hole, press down and turn. The gasket seals the top of the can. It works pretty good. My only complaint is that they don’t quite fit some odd sized European cans, the one I’ve tried is Pilsner Urquel. It’s just a bit too long. Perfect for a standard 12 oz.
Ok you’re missing a vital selling point. I bought these because we live where the insects have no manners and think all drinks are theirs. The fact that these keep the drink cold is a bonus.

Yesterday’s item will help in hiding today’s item.
@yakkoTDI Do you mean that in reverse?
@PooltoyWolf Not if you’re doing it right.
@mcanavino @PooltoyWolf @yakkoTDI
I already forgot what yesterday’s item was.
EDIT oh I remember now…
“AI” should be double walled to seal away the creative cancer.
These work really well but it’s a crying shame the beverage I bought them for is no longer with us
@PooltoyWolf What beverage is that?
@troy Nitro Pepsi! Discontinued at the end of January. I have three cans left.
@PooltoyWolf @troy I thought you meant that you consumed the beverage, and now don’t have anything left in the can to keep cold… I was going to suggest just getting another can of the beverage, but I see that that would just reopen a fresh wound. Nothing to see here…
@shahnm @troy I’m hoping maybe Coca-Cola will give us Coke Nitro to fill the void…and it’s not unheard of for discontinued flavors to come back…
Too many colors, which one to choose?
@sammydog01 and tie-dye sold out while I was thinking. Neo chrome it is.
@sammydog01 Neo chrome is really pretty! I bought it last time just for the color (I still haven’t used them.)
These are awesome! They work really well.
Bought 2 when they first dropped and was skeptical…liked them so much I’ve bought 6 more as gifts.

POPSOCKETS! SPA KITS! POLLY POCKETS! AWESOME!
@PHRoG
/showme an irregular can shape that tends to spill because physics
@mediocrebot I don’t think that bot knows what “irregular” means, nor really all that much about physics…
@mediocrebot @shahnm yep, bot will not get it.

@shahnm nope, will still go flat.
@shahnm It is not air tight
@PHRoG and @sixthsentinel
Thanks!
Or just pour the liquid from the can into one of your other million double insulated cups. No can needed.
@Num1Zero
That works poorly for carbonated drinks as a rule. In my experience hey tend to go flat faster.
@chienfou @Num1Zero carbonated drinks still go flat in these so… ?
(this is such a silly product. has that “as seen on SharkTank” vibe to it)
@chienfou @Num1Zero @visioneer_one The process of pouring them causes a large loss of carbonation.
@visioneer_one
I think you missed that last word in my comment…
@chienfou Ugg fine I ordered one. I shall do my own testing.
@Num1Zero
I’m in for 2 as well. Sealable top maybe handy in the RV.

A place to hide a pint of Guinness, well actually 14.9 oz
No need to come up with creative names for mediocre root beer. Mug already holds the crown for worst root beer and worst name.
@warpedrotors But “A&W Root Beer has that frosty MUG Taste” — I still remember the song. I think back then an ad song was called a “Jingle” but haven’t heard that term in years.

@pmarin
Yes… “Jingle” is the correct term.
@chienfou @pmarin Or “mini-tunes,” as they are called in Demolition Man (1993), where there are radio stations that play nothing but them…
@MrNews @pmarin
oh, yeah!
@pmarin @warpedrotors Damnit that jingle is burned into my brain now! Do you remember the ad that showed you how to manipulate your hand into the shape of a mug and that was how to properly consume A&W? Think of the “Hang Loose” sign and you’ve got it!

@chienfou looks like they clip in. See pic #2
@catthegreat
Thanks. Still not sure how tthey seal at the top though? Any input @Springbank?
@catthegreat @chienfou Basically, there is a sliding lid that opens on the top. The underside of the lid is a soft rubber gasket that surrounds the hole.

@catthegreat @chienfou Oh, and it seems like they might finally be running out so I bought 4 more.
@catthegreat @Springbank
Thanks!

@catthegreat @Kyeh @Springbank
Thank you, thank you, thank you…
Was the layout, artwork, and ad copy all done by AI?
Which AI service did I use for this comment?
But does it come in Georgia red? Why, yes. Yes it does!!!
Ok you’re missing a vital selling point. I bought these because we live where the insects have no manners and think all drinks are theirs. The fact that these keep the drink cold is a bonus.
They leak inside, they aren’t very well insolated, and were just generally disappointing.
The only real selling point for these is that they are good if you are a functional alcoholic trying to be covert about your beer consumption.
Totally disagree. Alcoholics don’t drink beer.
