THE Stanley Quencher travel cup was one of 2023’s must-have products – but not everyone wants to part with a £50 note in the name of viral trends. 

So it doesn’t matter that the trend shows no sign of slowing down, as countless dupes have hit the high-street.

From Tesco and Sainsbury’s to Home Bargains and Amazon, there’s copycat cups everywhere. 

They range in price from as cheap as £2.99 to well over £20, while a genuine Stanley Quencher will set you back £45. 

And just like the real deal, when a dupe is spotted, it sells out in days. 

One mum, who refused to spend a fortune on the designer cup, found a dupe in B&M for £6. 

But after taking it to the till, she noticed it was actually scanning for £4.50.

She took to Facebook group Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK to alert others to the steal, with one shopper warning “this will sell out now”. 

The shade is nearly identical to Stanley’s Slate design, which is currently stocked on the Urban Outfitters website. 

The Stanley Slate Quencher H2.0 Flowstate Tumbler holds 1.2L of liquid.

And while it’s unclear exactly how much the B&M dupe holds, the size looks pretty close to the real deal. 

The huge cups have been all the rage in Britain since autumn, following a huge rebrand in the US.

The Stanley Quencher sold out in just one day when it first went on sale in the UK and continues to sell out with each drop thanks to its huge popularity.

There are now sixteen colours to choose from following the launch of the Swirl Collection, featuring Polar Swirl and Rose Quartz Swirl.

The Polar Swirl Quencher blends white and grey tones seamlessly, whereas the Rose Quartz Swirl Quencher is inspired by the most popular shade, Rose Quartz, to create a pink and white swirl pattern.

It became a viral hit on TikTok and is an everyday essential for celebrities such as Molly-Mae Hague and Adele

Alongside social media hype, celebrity sightings have helped to elevate the on-trend cups to icon status.

Where to buy the real deal?

You can buy the original Stanley Cup off the brand’s website, as well as stockists including AmazonJohn Lewis and Lakeland.

Reviews have described it as “the best cup in the world”, as shoppers claim “everyone needs one”.

Bear in mind when buying from online retailers there could be additional delivery costs depending on the size of your order.

Standard delivery on the Stanley website is £4.95.
