That's a rip-off. 7 pounds for that! Today I bought some coffee and 2 of those came with it - I paid only AU$20 for the lot, a far cry from this rip-off!

Neat little glasses, but don't use them for coffee at all - they get way too hot to touch.

LOL Quite a nice little innocent thread for once :D

The ad mentions: Perfect for shots. I thought shots were strong stuff, like heavy alchohol, but maybe times have changed? I never touch any strong stuff so I wouldn't know.

I do remember having some Coca Cola glasses but they got broken all of them but they weren't that expensive. Now what I really want again are some of those ceramic coffemugs with truck-drawings on them like me and my dad had (I used them for milk, juice or soda) in the 1980s.

Yeah, they are perfect for shots. :D (the alcoholic type).

I did have a look elsewhere, and saw a pack of 6 of them advertised for £13.57:
