It's a shame about those cups, not criticizing you Mike, just saying it's a
shame in general the cups get tossed. Lego should offer a discount on future
purchases if we re-use the cups. Maybe .50 off the small cups and $1.00 off the
large ones.
Or put a hole in the lid and design a Lego straw so we can drink out of them.
Or better yet, like mentioned, fill one cup and sell equivalent weights in
baggies.
The cups are pretty heavy duty, imo. I think they may be strong enough to
survive being washed in the dishwasher.
