Cup holders

I just picked up two of these from my local Dollar Tree store.
The guy there kept asking me for a product #... I told him I didn't know what the product number was, it was a water bottle!
I had brought photos of the cup, but after I eventually found it, I was thinking to myself that someone should post a photo of what the water bottle itself looks like, not just the bottom cups! Guess you beat me to it!
Took some searching around, but I did eventually find 'em!

Even when you know what to look for these are hard to find in the store. If you haven't been to one of these dollar stores...you are in for a treat...it is organized caous. I didn't read the post carefully and went to a Dollar General first. Then reread and saw it was Dollar Tree. Went in made a complete store sweep three times before I fouund them. They were stuck on the top shelf of an endcap in the back...with unrelated items.
BTW they do fit nicely in the cup holder...all they had at my store was purple...so plasti-dip may be in order.

Since we have had few new members just joined our SC family, I thought I'd bring this post back so they can find the solution for SC cup holder design flaw. The cup is available from Dollar Tree.

These are also great if you take your dog hiking 'cause you have both water and a dish in one unit.

I like your color choice -- GO GATORS!!
I found the cheap fix for the design flaw of the cup holders in our SC. Bough these cups at Dollar Tree, they fit perfectly in the cup holder. Now my coffee cup, my water bottles and/or my favorite soda cans won't not tip over during the sharp turn or sudden brake.They're stored neatly in the glove compartment when not in use.

Johnny, I didn't know that combo colors are for the Gators. I guess now I have to find new colors for the USC, gold and cardinal. Red, I have, gold, must be creative.
BTW, I still have bunch of them, if you need them and live in Orange County, drop me a PM and come to pick them up (I don't know if it's worth the drive and the gas)

FWIW, I came across a smaller-sized travel mug that seems to be a bit better in terms of fit and less fear of being thrown out, compared to the typical size. It fits snugly into my one holder that has the full rubber lip still intact, and "almost snug enough" in the holder that doesn't have the full rubber lip. The below picture compares this size to my standard mug which I always kept my hand on during any turns.
I found this smaller mug at JCP a few months back, and they still had some last week as I picked up another one for passengers when needed. If anyone is interested in one of these but can't find them locally or online (which I could not), feel free to PM me and I'd be glad to ship one out to you at cost. The Ranger Rise, 12oz, UPC # 848974150389.
EDIT 8/21/18: try this UPC also: 848974150372.
^^ size comparision
JC - Being as I went to a different SEC college...Gators suck!!!! I can't tell you how many times I lost lunch bets on the TN-FL football games over the years...but I sure miss seeing Spurrier fling his visor!
The Dollar Tree near me in Kent, WA (20618 108th Ave. SE) has these water bottle/cups in stock as of a few weeks ago.

I'm surprised that the mug doesn't show up on the JCP website. I even searched for it on Amazon and ebay with no results. (I tried the name and the UPC #.)

BTW, these were $14.99 + tax for those that might be interested - I should have put that in my initial post. Note the UPC below is for the stainless-finished mug, the other was for the black.

I know I'm still new-ish here but would be happy to help anyone who wanted one of these. I'm sure not gonna rip someone off for $20 and be shunned on the forums...I'll need help from all you experts here at some point in the future!
