Ransom Note Cups

The Mixed Messages Mug Gives You an Extra Perk in the Morning

Mornings can be tough, even after downing a full cup of coffee, so perk them up even more with this Mixed Messages Mug. A fun coffee cup, it comes with a bevy of ransom note-like cutout letters that can form any words, sentences or phrases that you come up with. Of course, drink a cup of joe before coming up with anything too "clever."

Brought to you by Perpetual Kid, the Mixed Messages Mug is perfect for both kids and adults. Priced at an affordable $14.99, the mug features polymer letters that not only cling reliably to your coffee cup, but can also stay on when the cup is put through the dishwashing machine.
