my local W-M had all 3 sizes of the Ozark's in stock and what a deal when compared to the Yeti's $$$$ an hour after buying the 3 for $26 total (30 oz tumbler $10 /20 oz $8 tumbler & 12 oz insulator $8 = $26) even if they don't work as good as good as the Yeti's, they are a deal when $$$ is compared!! The Yeti 30 oz tumbler $40 /20 oz tumbler $30 & 12 oz insulator $30 = $100 !!!! and as was said before, they look identical with all of them being made in China!!!! Now what really impressed me was that a magnet WILL NOT adhere to them thus telling me they are of a good quality stainless!! That's $74 dollars cheaper than the Yeti branded items / you could buy 4 of each of the Ozark from W-M for the price of 1 of each of the Yeti's!!!!!!! I'm Sold just on $$$$ and than to be shown they perform as good and better. What a deal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

At the WalMart , we spotted the OT tumblers in the camping section ... bought two ( one for me ,one for the wife ) ... Got home , fixed a drink ( water ) and the ice lasted from Noon , and at midnight there was still some ice left in the tumbler , even after adding more water ... I was quite Happy with the purchase ... :applause:

It doesn't cost anything to ship to the store to pick up. Also, there are handles on Amazon for them or your Yeti (30 oz.) for sale for $7.45. This still puts this cup cheaper than the Yeti by almost half. You can also order the lids that close. 143647


:thumbsup: :thumbsup: The handles would be nice. I think for driving, I want to ise a straw.


Bob, they even sell the extra long straws. I think they are made of aluminum but I could be wrong.

I was in the Iron Mountain Wallyworld yesterday and they had cases of the 20oz and 30oz on the shelves. I have two of the 20oz and had two more in my hands and thought, why? Next time I go I'll probably get a couple anyway without asking why! Looking on line OT has a series of high performance coolers styled after the Yeti. Unfortunately they are out of stock on line and in the stores, so, can't get my eyes on one to check them out.

Tim, you can always give them as presents for birthdays, Christmas or whatever. I ordered 5 of the 30 oz. OT and ordered 5 handles. I plan to give one to my son and keep the other 4 to give out at my camp gatherings. They even make some really cool sleeves for the cups but I didn't want to spend $12 for the sleeve when the cup cost $10.

We picked up several as gifts also. Already gave one away and the others may go into hiding til Christmas. I also won a Yeti 20 oz mug at a gathering last week and that too will be saved until Christmas.

Ha! I was just at Wallyworld here and the pile of 20oz tumblers was cleaned out. The lady in the sports dept couldn't believe it as she had just filled the shelves... Oh well, I got a 30oz and I'm happy about that. No need to hoard tumblers! :lol:

Yep, they are completely sold out around here. You can get them on Amazon, but at almost twice the price.

:thumbsup: I'm enjoying the 30oz. Ozark Trail tumbler. It was very handy and refreshing to have chilled water for a recent day long car trip. With a GLO handle and a long straw now its much easier to grab, hold and sip from. Just bought more OT tumblers for gifts.

Just got my OT tumbler at Wally World. A note of caution: just as it keeps cold stuff cold, it also keeps hot stuff hot, really hot. I have a Thermos brand tea tumbler and scalded my tongue a time or two before I realized I had to cool it down to a drinkable temp before putting the lid on. Unlike a regular tumbler, it won't cool down on its own. :o

Yup Yup. Coffee in the morning is HOT!

Finally scored two of these at our local Wal Mart. They are going out on the 93 degree golf course with me this afternoon.
