Trending tumblers the social media craze

Not long after Santa finished delivering his last presents, Springfield’s newest travel center began stocking what would become its hottest commodity: a 40-ounce tumbler.

Buc-ee’s fans didn’t waste any time racing to the new Springfield location, which opened last month, for the travel center’s Valentine’s Day collection, which includes a 40-ounce Yukon Outfitters tumbler.

The Valentine’s Day tumbler is white with a baby pink handle, rim and straw, featuring cartoon candy hearts and the Buc-ee’s beaver sporting heart-shaped sunglasses. The phrase, “Buc-ee’s will never break my heart” is sprawled across the tumbler with “2024” on full display. The tumbler’s retail price is $24.98, according to a TikTok video posted by a shopper.

One of the first online mentions of the Valentine’s Day tumbler appeared in the “Fans Of Buc-ee’s! Springfield, Missouri” Facebook Group, which contains more than 30,000 members dedicated to the travel center, on Dec. 26, 2023. Facebook user Kellie Kvittum Walsh shared a photo of the tumbler, which quickly flooded with comments.

When will Buc-ee’s get more Valentine’s Day tumblers?

As of Friday, the Springfield location remains sold out of the tumblers. A Buc-ee’s spokesperson told the News-Leader on Wednesday that a restocking date has not been confirmed.

Texas Snax, the largest online reseller of Buc-ee’s merchandise, was sold out of the tumbler as of Friday. Texas Snax is reselling the tumbler for $44.99.

It appears that Buc-ee’s fans who desire the tumbler will need to be prepared to pay an inflated price, as several are available on resale websites like eBay for more than double the original cost. Listings range anywhere from
