glassware / drinkware

[Dr. Spa™ Ret.]

Just curious.... If you take something to drink out to the spa, is it in glass or plastic? Are you concerned about using glass in the spa? If you use plastic, did you get plastic drinkware specifically for spa use?

Glass is a MAJOR no-no near our spa. I've made it 8 years without having to deal with broken glass in my tub and we understand it as a family that it's a no-no. I even make it a point to remove my glass eye and leave it on the dresser before I go in the spa.

No glass in my spa either.  We've got plastic for spa/pool/patio use.

No glass for us.  We have plastic for patio use and so we use the platic glasses and wine glasses, etc. around the spa.

We don't have a lot of matching glassware, and we have plenty of plastic cups from Buckeye football games.  I will occasionally take a glass into the spa if I'm buy myself and I keep it in the corner above the filter department, and it never leaves there. (I go to it for a drink and never lift it more than a couple of inches.

Ditto, for us

Beer Cans.....

I bought plastic glasses and wine glasses for the spa, and that is all we use out there, but unfortunately they crack easily, and I think I have lost 3-4 of the 8 I bought about 18 months ago! Cheap Target cr@p.

Beer bottles do make it out there sometimes. Probably not wise, but I dont want to pour a nice cold beer into a room temp plastic glass.

I'm surprised it took so many responses to get this this   I was betting by response #4

Any recollection what they cost? And can you put them in the dishwasher?

I have bought moderately expensive plastic dinkware and cheap stuff...they all say dishwasher safe and they all mark fairly quickly from the dishwasher.  At least the ones we got.

Walmart has cheap plastic freezer mugs. We leave them in the freezer and at tubbing time we fill them with ?

[Brookenstein]

I've got a couple of nice plastic martini glasses that I paid maybe $5 each or less for I can't remember.  They are dishwasher safe and very thick and sturdy.  Then I've got the ones that go in the freezer and those are huge and are great for a mudslide.  Not that I would mix alchol and tubbing...  I think I got those at Target and were dirt cheap on clearance, but they are quite tacky looking with the green liquid inside.  The kids usually just use the plastic Lion King glasses that were sold at McDonalds 15 years ago....

I take my coffee mug with me in the morning.

With coffee in it.

No breakage yet.

For water there's plastic water bottles, for beer out of the bottle - yes there's glass but it's brown glass so it's easy to see if it gets dropped around the spa (haven't yet). If beer goes into a container - plastic.
