If you don’t already own a tumbler, now might be the best time ever to invest in one. Besides the obvious pros of keeping cold drinks cold and hot drinks hot, there are so many different styles of tumblers on the market. With brands like Stanley and Yeti leading the pack in quality, design, and size options, the ongoing saga that is the tumbler craze has inspired other companies to jump on the bandwagon, not only with competing prices, but also with style. 

Enter: Five Below and the company’s growing selection of tumblers, which are direct duplicates of other popular brands at ultra-cheap prices, although lacking a bit in quality. With a $5 version of both the Stanley and the Yeti tumblers under their belt, Five Below is now seemingly gearing up for the spooky season with the release of the 24-ounce glow-in-the-dark diamond tumbler. A direct duplicate of Starbucks’ popular Halloween tumblers, this not-so-one-of-a-kind tumbler is identical in size, comes with a reusable straw and lid, and — you guessed it — costs only $5. 

Fans of Five Below have been rejoicing the news online, with one TikTok user doing us a big favor by breaking down all the details and comparing it to the original Starbucks tumblers fans have trouble getting their hands on.

“Dang now I gotta go see if mine has it haha. I’m so ready for Halloween stuff to be in stores,” commented one user.

While you can save a few bucks on the Five Below version, it’s clear that the glow is not as strong as the Starbucks version, although it is bigger in size (the content creator displayed the 12-ounce tumbler from Starbucks, but there is a 24-ounce available, too). Whatever your tumbler needs may be, it should be no problem to find one that’s suitable for you. However, if you intend to save some money while still keeping up with a cool aesthetic, Five Below seems to be the way to go. Who knows — you may see a dupe for something you least expect next!

Not into the glow-in-the-dark effect for your tumbler? Don’t worry — Five Below also has a studded rainbow tumbler and metallic diamond tumblers for you.
