The TikTok-famous Stanley tumbler is getting the Aldi treatment—a budget-friendly dupe will hit stores at the end of the month, and you really can't beat the price.
Aldi is launching their version of the viral tumbler for just $10, a significant price drop from Stanley’s $35 Quencher H2.0. The new Crofton 40-ounce Thirst Crusher Tumbler will come in charcoal, blue, flint gray, and cream.
The water bottle won’t hit stores until August 30, giving you plenty of time to figure out the best way to get your hands on this sure-to-be beloved alternative. Stanley tumblers are best-selling items, and consistently sell out—this has created quite the market for similar alternatives, many of which have filled the shelves of stores like Target, Five Below, and more. So if you haven't been able to try the elusive tumbler for yourself just yet, or you're in the market for a more affordable option, Aldi has got you covered.
Despite the flood of Stanley tumbler dupes, the century-old brand is still going strong in their popularity. Following its viral explosion on TikTok and Instagram in 2020, the brand took part in some very fun collaborations: It recently launched six new colors in collaboration with Joanna Gaines' Target Hearth & Hand with Magnolia line, taking the aesthetically-pleasing tumblers to a whole new level with the muted, earthy notes Gaines is famous for. Stanley also partnered with Pendleton, the classic blanket and clothing brand, in May. That partnership gave shoppers an insulated thermos, a travel mug, a brew-over pour set, and a set of stacking beer pints that have all of Stanley’s beloved durability along with Pendleton’s classic stripes.

When I set about blogging The Peat-Free Diet it was an experiment, an journey into the unknown. My aim was to provide gardeners who want to garden without the use of peat with the information they need to do so, and the book evolved into a gardening primer that assumed peat was not on the menu. My love of science made more of an appearance than I had anticipated and there are plenty of big words to cope with, but it is my hope that they are presented in such a way that they are not hard to swallow.

Sowing seeds is often the first gardening task of the year, and a favoured way of propagating plants because it’s very cost-effective. It’s the first stage in many plants’ lives and seeds want to grow, it’s their reason for being. And yet some gardeners are intimidated by seed sowing and avoid it where possible and others struggle to grow plants from seed successfully in peat-free compost. So I’m going to begin The Peat-Free Diet with a look at what happens when we sow seeds, the best way to go about it, and how to achieve a good success rate.
You might recall that one of my New Year’s Resolutions was to read one of my unread books every month this year, and to decide whether each one keeps its place on the shelf, or needs to be turned loose to find a new owner. In January I read The Gardener’s Year by Karel Čapek. February’s book was Minding my Peas and Cucumbers, by Kay Sexton – quirky tales of allotment life, it says on the cover. According to my notes it has been on the shelf, unread, since 2011.
