Lost a Cup

I should've paid more attention to the cups and plates I got for my GO BAG! I couldn't afford metal/aluminum settings do I had to settle for plastic settings from the dollar store. Everyone knows that whatever you buy at the dollar store is not meant to last a long time. I know that, but I didn't have the money to buy a long lasting camping gear. 

So, what happened? My cheap plastic cup with handle and lid broke. Unbelievable. First, the rubber lining for the lid gets warped. Because of that the lid won't close all the way. A portion sticks up. Well today I filled up my cup and tried to put the lid on while holding the cup handle. Well while twisting the lid side to side the handle broke off. It broke off. It F-N broke off! That cup is a total waste now. What do I do now? Trade? Beg? Buy? Steal? No one has a spare cup! It's a good thing the cup came as a pair. 

I'm just disgusted with myself. What other bad decisions did I make because I didn't have the money? How long will my utensils last? My bowls? My pot and pan? Not very long I'm afraid.

  1. Today I did lose a real cup. It was a nice plastic cup made of resin. The lid plastic did break. Today the handle did come off. It's an amputee!
