      From pic, this is the glass version, large. Definitely worth 20+ bucks.

      • +1

        AFAIK, they don't make the glass ("Brew") in L size, only S and M. This looks to be the M (which does have $26RRP).

        They do make the "Longplay" (double wall insulated glass model) and the Clear Edition (clear tritan plastic) in L size.

        This is the larger/largest version of the Brew, which is what you probably meant! :)

      Where can you get the large glass one cheaper?

        Sorry, replied to wrong person.

        ^ Voss water bottle is not a Keepcup! (try asking a barista to fit that under the grouphead, and see what they say!)

        • Sticking random cups not known to be washed under the grouphead is generally a bad idea I think. 8oz cups are fine. Large ones are a struggle. Plenty of customers bring in cups that clearly haven't seen the dishwasher in quite some time.

        • @dsgfh:

          Why does it matter if the cup isn't washed? Won't hurt ya grouphead!

    I have a few of this cup, the plastic one, extremely easy to clean, soap uo, rinse. 10 seconds job.

    I read that as Free Ketchup, thought that was a bit lean for an OzBargain deal

      Nothing is too lean for OzBargain.
      Even if the complimentary product is worth 1c, everyone on OzB loses their shit and orders.

    I've got the plastic and glass versions of the KeepCups, and they are a really good product. This is a good deal!

        Sigh was hoping to go tonight. I don't think I could eat $20 of Pad Thai.

        • Eat $10 of it and get the leftovers to take home for tomorrow.

        • @jjjaar:
          Could have if I wasn't going out afterwards.

      • Spent $16 at Mr Close last weekend, saw the deal but was too lazy to look at the details - should have done, would have been only another $4 :-/

  • +2

    The fine print confirms it's a "KeepCup 12oz/340ml in Black".

    • Good size this is equivalent to large coffee in Sydney.

  • Got a free plastic keep cup from Jamaica Blue and use it almost every day. So easy to clean, great how it can be watertight and keeps coffee hot without burning your hands :)

    Assuming the glass one is the same quality. Great deal!

    They ran out at the sushi place

    • Are they getting more stock in?

    • +1

      Thai also got none

      • Oh that’s a shame!
        I just picked up one at Pad Thai about half an hour ago.

    • +2

      Wow so much hate for a keep cup. Don't know about shitty gimmick but I find mine pretty handy for when I make my coffee at home and take it with me to work.

      As others have stated it's a quality product that will last sometime and won't leak etc.

    • Don't hold back, let us know how you really feel

    • Interestingly, foam cups take so little energy to make that you need to use a ceramic cup a thousand times in order to break even, including the washing side of things - http://sustainability.tufts.edu/wp-content/uploads/Comparati…

      The problem with foam being that they don't degrade and it isn't financially viable to recycle it. However throwing a 1 or 2 cent per cup tax on it would create probably the perfect product and we wouldn't need to use paper/plastic/glass cups anymore.

    • Thanks to the unthinking braindead dogooders, I'm now not going to be able to repurpose my bags from Coles as rubbish bags, I'll have to buy them (thus still using them anyway). #thanksobama

    • Disposable Coffee cups are NOT Recyclable / Biodegradeable for the most part - they are lines with a plastic film.

  • +1

    I think every effort is better for the environment. Recycle, compost, whatever. The plastic coating in every 20 paper cups disposed is equivalent to one keepcup. It's meant to be reused as long as possible. Almost though not all the cups are manufactured in Victoria - less carbon footprints, more Aussie jobs. Of course using your existing thermal flasks or ceramic mugs works just as good, don't have to buy. I just think it's a good habit to cultivate. Also baristas usually have their own measures for size of coffee so no problem with that.

    • -1

      It's just a marketing ploy making someone richer…

      I'd rather spend efforts to degrade plastic bags (especially the thick ones from JB, Myers, etc)
      Removing glitter and exfoliating plastics that get dumped in our waterways.
      Thick babywipes that are flushed and never degrade

      • Every year Australians use 1 billion disposable coffee cups - only the ACT recycles them. Estimates put this at 60,000 kilograms of plastic waste per annum into landfill.

        You're telling me KeepCups are a ploy? Jog on.

        • -1

          Oh God, another dudd that's just performing some Googling and decided to flare up with a pre-biased view.

          1.) Most coffee cups are recyclable, for a period of time they weren't MOST are now.
          2.) The entire coffee cup isn't plastic, seems like you've never bought coffee. it's a very thin lining of plastic. For the cups that aren't recyclable, large portions of it still are except the plastic bits.

          Now let's have a debate, what is more of a concern:

          A.) Plastic Bags which 99.9% of the population acquire through retail, grocery and other shopping which are 100% non-recyclable
          B.) Coffee cups which are consumed by ~60-70% of the population which MOST are recyclable where the non-recyclable ones are 25% recycled still?

          I think you should Jog on and not return to this thread

  • Says VIC residents only, but do they actually check? Going to be down in Melbourne for the next couple of days so may try getting in on this

    • +1

      you will be found out instantly

      too risky

    • I doubt they’d know; grabbed one at Pad Thai earlier.
      all you have to do is fill in a form which is name, email, store purchased from and amount. And they staple your receipt to it and keep it.

  • -2

    Those cups are so stupid. They leak and eventually get mouldy!

    • +3

      uh, you're meant to wash it.

      Anything will become moldy if you leave food/drink in it without washing it.

      • I wash it thoroughly. First under the tap after I rinse it and soak it overnight, then I put it in the dishwasher by itself so coffee doesn't tarnish the food taste using other dishware washed in the same dishwasher.

        Yeah you get the idea.

        • +1

          I seriously hope you're joking.

          Anyway, I give mine a rinse before/after every use and a scrub monday morning and I've never had mould in one. I did go on holidays and forget about it, it grew a nice jungle, but again a scrub and it's good to go again.

        • -1

          @freefall101:
          Sweet idea, stop the plastic but waste water and flush more detergent in our waterways, mad idea trickster

        • Are you joking? Also maybe yours is leaking as you have put the lid in and washed in dishwasher too hot and warped the seal? Hand washing is adequate

    Real OzBargainers don't buy takeaway coffee they make their own with coffee machines and BCG820 grinders :P

      You mean Nescafé Blend 43 with supermarket branded milk.

  • -2

    You can’t pre-order with apps using your own cup. Not to mention all the carrying and washing. Huge inconvenience due to environmental correctness.

    If keep cup is a thing, bring your own box when ordering takeaway.

    • "Either do it all or don't bother trying to reduce single use containers at all" what a ridiculous attitude. Everyone can start somewhere and reuseable coffee cups are a great place to start for something much of the population consumes every day.

    • Not to mention all the carrying and washing

      LOL

  • -2

    Not a fan of the concept, don't want to carry around a cup - I don't carry a purse, manbag or backpack. Take time and relax a little, sit a drink a coffee in a reusable cup (that someone else washes - and an industrial dishwasher that will be more environmentally friendly than you washing it at the sink).

  • Marked as expired - are they all gone?

    • +1

      Yep. If you take a look at the promotion page, it says it's all sold out, and another promotion starts on Feb 5th.

  • For max environmental friendliness, there are are tonnes of second-hand takeaway mugs at op-shops.
