    I know some people are going to make fun of my about this but the Dollar Tree has some pretty good beer glasses for a buck a piece. They are surprising pretty heavy, but no laser cut by any means. I bought two cases of the American Pills the other day.

    Where does everyone else get there glasses at?

    Friends and family members buy me beer glasses for my birthday and Christmas, so I'm never short. I just whip them out into the street instead of cleaning them. I'm pretty awesome that way.

    Well at least you don’t throw them onto the playground at the local elementary school. :D

    Don't be worried man, my wife used to buy super expensive wine glasses that looked really good but were super thin, I actually broke them all over a 2 year period, so we went to the dollar store. They were thick but not perfect looking, but they were a dollar. I'm sure the beer glasses are just fine. I usually ask my liquor store if they have any cool glasses to give away every time I buy something, even if its liquor, and usually they hook me up. :tank:

    In college, I loved the dollar store b/c of how cheap the glassware was. Friends of mine would come over and be careless, break a glass, and I wasn't heartbroken over it.

    Now, I'm beginning to invest in higher quality glassware. Nothing super expensive, nor matching, but nice. I picked up a Duvall glass for $4.50 at one of my local beer stores.

    Nothing wrong with dollar store glasses. Easy to replace and they shatter nice when u whip them out onto the street. :D Anytime im at a brewery or driving by a thrift store i will check out the glassware.

    Restaurant supply store, they sell the pint glasses that get used at the bars, almost unbreakable, $1 each, but they don't hold a pint. They are sold as shaker glasses.

    WOW I did a search for it and never found it. I gave some of the wine glasses away as gifts at Xmas time, it's a long story, but that is why I thought I would get flamed for this. LOL

    and I have been using one of these glass now for about two years, that is why I went back and bought more.
