Nah, with tax it's 6.58 here and I like the JDS better at not much more.

Thanks Bruce!

Does the JDS tumbler have the "trademark" name like the Ozark Trail?

They do--Polar Camel. JDS will not sell to you unless you are a licensed business. The JDS product is packaged much better than the Walmart stuff.

... packaged much better than the Walmart stuff.

Ozark Trail seems to be using a new glue - PAIN IN the ARS! I now charge extra for customers, even commercial bulk orders who bring cups with the label still on. The Polar Camel cups don't use glue, or at least the few I've tried.

The first tumblers I bought for my own purposes came from Walmart. Good that the cashier at the order desk (had to order from the warehouse) had the good sense to open the carton. They were thrown into the carton without any packing material and two were damaged. Typical Walmart.

BTW, I also charge extra for the Walmart stuff for the same reason.

Wilbur, there is NO logo on the Polar Camel, JDS cups. None, Nowhere. Another reason to like them.
And they engrave just as easy. You do have to have business license to buy from them.

also, the JDS cups use one drop of glue now for the label. Comes of much easier, they were using a strip of tape that was difficult.
Individually boxed.

That must be a recent change as the samples I received several months back had the logo on the lid. A welcome change I might add.

Walmart did not bother to individually wrap a large group of cups recently dropped shipped to us. They were just thrown into a huge box naked as can be. Dings and dents amounted to about a 70% loss. Then to add insult to injury, I had to stack cups and lay them on their side on cookie sheets filled with acetone to get them clean from the large smattering of label glue.

There were 100 of them!!!
