The novelty of owning a mug with the Cookie Monster's face on it should already make you want to buy this product, but the Cookie Monster cup is not only flashy and cute, it is also highly functional. The mouth of the Cookie Monster cup serves as a storage compartment for your favorite snacks while the upper portion is reserved for tasty beverages. Though the storage compartment may seem small, it's actually wide enough to hold two medium-sized chocolate chip cookies -- the Cookie Monster's food of choice. Fans of Sesame Street and of convenience will definitely enjoy owning one of these.
Still not convinced? Among the Cookie Monster cup's many admirers is Pharrell Williams of The Neptunes and N.E.R.D. fame, who recently posted the cup on his Billionaire Boys Club blog. If it's cool enough for Pharrell, it's cool enough for you.
