This poll is closed. Please go HERE to vote for colors.

It's just about time for me to order the 10th anniversary coffee mugs that we'll sell during the bash. For you new members not familiar with our tradition, here's a peek at last year's mug sale.

Just to give me an idea what to order, I thought I'd run a quick poll. If the following were available which would you be likely to order?

Large Mug (16 ounces)
Small Mug (12 ounces)
Pen/Pencil Cup (3-1/4" tall)
Soup Bowl (18 ounces)
Beer Stein (20 ounces)

Thanks for your input!

I think a lot depends on the shape / style. A stein sound perfect for our 10th but not if it's butt ugly. Any chance of some mock ups like you did last year?

Yes, we'll have mockups as soon as I get a rough idea of what we want.

Still like the pen cups, although it usually store my tools in them.

Last year I thought the pen cup was a great idea. I like mine, but I've found that having my pens corraled and easily visible (rather than randomly buried under the mounds of clutter on my desk) has resulted in my having no pens. Easy to see makes them easy to "borrow" (unless the cup is making them grow legs and they scoot away on their own.....:mad:).

The tool idea is a good one. At least I wouldn't be looking at an empty cup....but would I have the same problem with tools as pens......

I was hoping for a butt ugly mug. It would make me look good by comparison and be useful for that awkward period before the required quantity of brew starts to make me look good. :biggrin:

I don't drink coffee, so I order the pen cup.

I was a little disappointed that the 9th anniversary cup was smaller than the 8th.
 
Actually, I think the beer stein should be made out of glass with the logo etched into it. so I am going to vote for the small mug
 
I have never gotten any of the items.

However, for the 10th.....I will be getting something. I am checking the beer stein but only if it is a glass one. The rest will be great but again......something that catches my eye. Design and color will be the deciding factors.

are you sure about that?

Oh THE CUP. You're right it was shorter. I was thinking of the mugs.

The taller cup seemed to hide whatever was in it, so I tried the shorter one.

yes, it's a slightly smaller ID as well.
 
Would it be a problem to offer both? I wouldn't mind having one of each; my wife might mind, but I wouldn't. :biggrin: Beer; Yummy!

True, but tall pencils fall over in the short cup. I vote for the taller pencil cup.
 
16 oz mug or the 20 oz I drink hot chocolate, sweet tea, not beer (doh) on the cold mornings.

I chose the small mug, because:
a) running out of room in my display cabinet
b) it's cold in Canada - coffee chills down quickly in a trencher! :smile:

That being said, I'd be happy with any of them! :smile:

Andrew they have invented these most wonderous things called furnaces --- I am told that even in Canada by stoking up the furnace and keeping the doors and windows closed one can be down right comfortable sitting and reading a good (and long) book.:biggrin::biggrin:

If you saw what it cost to heat this house, you'd keep your furnace at 15 degrees too! :smile:

Bought a woodstove, but it's in the shed at the moment - have to get a certified installer for insurance purposes, and they're busy this time of year!

That being said, time to crawl back into my attic and insulate a bit more!
