Pull the plug on mug thievery with the Lockup mug

lockup mug

There's always that one slovenly guy in every office who has no scruples when it comes to using other people's mugs and then leaving them, dirty, in the sink. You could always protect yourself from this behavior by using paper coffee cups, but with the dozen or so cups you drink a day you'd get a landfill named after you after too long if you kept that up. What to do? Get this Lockup mug, that's what. It's got a built-in "key," that's actually a little plug that you can pull out and keep in your desk. If someone wants to take your mug from the office kitchen they'll have a hard time using it, as there'll be a gaping hole in it without the key. When you want to use it simply plug the hole, fill with coffee, and continue self-medicating with caffeine as per usual. That'll teach your thieving coworkers! There's no word on release dates or pricing, so for now just lock your mug in your desk. Duh.
