BTN News: Olivia Rodrigo, loved by Generation Z, has worked with Stanley to create a special cup. But it is hard to get one.
Stanley is an old brand from the United States. It has been around for over 100 years. Recently, it has become very popular in Argentina. In 2018, sales of Stanley thermos bottles in Argentina went up by 225% compared to the year before. In 2019, sales increased by another 41%, even though people were spending less.
Olivia Rodrigo’s Special Stanley Cup
The new cup is called the Olivia Rodrigo Stanley Quencher Flowstate. It holds 40 ounces of liquid. The cup has a clear lid in a “SOUR grape” color and a reusable straw. It is decorated with silver and red stars and has artwork from Rodrigo’s album “GUTS”. This special cup costs $55. Fans want it, but it sold out online quickly.
How to Get the Limited-Edition Cup
The cup was sold through “EQL Launch”. This service helps fans buy popular items fairly. It stops bots and fraud. But many people said the site crashed right after the cup was released.
To buy the cup, customers had to sign up in advance. If chosen, they got a confirmation email. Many lucky buyers shared their joy on social media.
Fans React and DIY Options
One person said on X (formerly Twitter), “I said I would never buy a Stanley because the TikTok craze is too much. But I tried to get the Olivia Rodrigo Stanley and I got it. Sometimes you become what you said you wouldn’t.”
