help!

Help!!! Mason is moving on from the world of sippy cups, which is AWESOME!! However, the majority of my 6 NOT sippy cups are princess and 6 cups is NOT enough for two kids. I'm looking for regular, small, non-destructable cups for my kids. Something like this:

These would be GREAT, they're only $2 for this set of 6. BUT they're at IKEA and can't be ordered online. Story of my life. I don't have any plans on driving to Orem or LA in the next little while, so IKEA is not useful. I've looked at walmart and target with NO LUCK! Does anyone have any other ideas. I'm pretty cheap. I love the little princess cup that Brooklyn got from her dear friend, but I'm not willing to spend 2 or 3 dollars per cup. (sorry, I can't find any pics of these cups for demonstration...) We also have some that were sippy cups (snapped the lid on) but the lip makes them a little trickier to drink out of. These, however are my best option at the moment. PLEASE please please pass on any ideas you might have! Thanks in advance :)

We have those cups, plates, utensils and bowls...LOVE LOVE LOVE THEM!! I have 2 sets and they are used a TON!

You can find them on ebay for the same price at ikea. Or you can beg someone you know who lives close to one to get them and mail them to you.

You can also do a search on ebay for tupperware cups...

babies r us?

I got a cheap plastic set very much like IKEA's from Smith's Market (kroger) when they had summer picnic dishes out last year. They were cheap and have lasted well. I'd keep your eyes open in the holiday sections...and pick some picnic versions up when summer comes (I know that is further down the road than you were probably hoping).

Dude, I am a frequent IKEA shopper. It's only 20 minutes from my house. Do you want me to ship you some? Have you tried their plates that go with the cups? They are also fantastic and are a great size for snacks and such. Just let me know!

I can go to Ikea too. Let me know if you aren't successful finding some up there, and I will bring them with me next time we come up (hopefully soon!)

I would look at Tupperware.com. They sell all sorts of cups and different things like that. I love that place. It is a bit more $, but it is nice stuff that will last forever.
