Oprah's favorite Corkcicle tumbler — now down to $24 — comes with a ceramic straw
The war of the insulated tumblers (or water bottles) is a cold one. Stanley has long held the crown, but a new ruler may be emerging. Oprah herself has declared she only has eyes for this insulated Corkcicle tumbler. This triple-insulated cup is on sale at Amazon in 16 gorgeous colors — and it just so happens to be $20 less than the viral Stanley Quencher tumbler that everyone's still trying to get their hands on.

If you're a card-carrying member of the insulated bottle fan club, you probably know that Corkcicle is a veteran brand that's been at the top of the game for a while — long before Stanley's Quencher took center stage. This triple-insulated tumbler was first released in 2022 and is on sale on Amazon for the lowest it's ever been. Cue the "Game of Thrones" theme song!
Oprah Winfrey included the Corkcicle Triple Insulated Stainless Steel Tumbler in her 2023 Favorite Things List and, as with anything Lady O approves, shoppers went crazy. While some colors have sold out, the cup is, surprisingly, still in stock on Amazon. Being on sale sweetens the deal even further.
The 71-year-old media legend gushed about just why she loves this cup so much, sharing that it's a powerhouse for keeping drinks both hot and cold for hours on end.
"I first picked Corcicle in 2023. This year, it has a brand-new cup with a ceramic straw, that comes in 19 colors and keeps drinks cold for up to 12 hours (or hot for five)," she wrote on Oprah Daily. "I can't wait to have my smoothie in the lavender one."
The cup has ergonomic flat sides, making it easy to hold with one hand, a silicon bottom that keeps it from sliding and is triple-insulated, so your drinks will stay ice-cold or piping hot for hours and hours on end.
It's no surprise that Oprah has a good eye; hundreds of reviewers are just as enthusiastic about this sleek insulated tumbler as Ms. O.
Pros 👍
"Another of Oprah's favorites that's now mine, too!" one five-star reviewer said, "This is the perfect container that keeps the ice tinkling in my iced coffee, water or any beverage I care to carry! It's spillproof, which is more than I can say about most of the many drink holders I've tried."
"It's very comfortable in my hands, and I have small hands," another shopper wrote. "It fits in my 2018 Jeep cup holder and my RV cup holder. It's awesome! I got the 24-ounce. ... Perfect for almost anything. It seals in cold or hot beverages!"
If you're accident-prone or worried about kicking it over, this tumbler is truly leak-proof, according to shoppers. One added that it actually "doesn't leak when tipped over. Worth every penny."
Cons 👎
One shopper admitted that the ceramic straw took some getting used to, especially since they were accustomed to the hard plastic ones that come with brands like the Stanley Quencher.
"My baby will grab at it as we head downstairs and that scraping sound scares me," the shopper wrote. I also wish there was a cover included."
"I love it," noted another fan. "The only thing is I wish the metal straw came with a rubber sleeve cause when the drink is ice cold, your lips freeze to the straw." Notably, it's a ceramic-coated straw, so you won't have any "A Christmas Story"-style sticking to the straw, but it may make your lips a bit cold.

Best Stephen King movie adaptations, ranked (including 'The Life of Chuck')
Best Stephen King movie adaptations, ranked (including 'The Life of Chuck') Show Caption Hide Caption 'The Life of Chuck': Tom Hiddleston headlines Stephen King movie Based on a Stephen King novella, "The Life of Chuck" chronicles the life of accountant Charles Krantz (Tom Hiddleston) in three acts told in reverse. Love movies? Live for TV? USA TODAY's Watch Party newsletter has all the best recommendations, delivered right to your inbox. Sign up now and be one of the cool kids. Almost as long as that legendary master of horror Stephen King has been keeping book lovers up at night, filmmakers have been adapting his novels and short stories. Which means there have been some stone-cold classics ("The Shining," anyone?) and more than a few clunkers. For every "The Dark Tower," there's an "It" – though we got two of those, both of them good. So is the new one: Director Mike Flanagan's uplifting film "The Life of Chuck" (in theaters now), based on the novella from King's "If It Bleeds" collection, stars Tom Hiddleston as the title character whose life story gets told in reverse chronological order. It's a pretty big 2025 for King and his Constant Readers. The year has already seen the release of "The Monkey," and this fall brings dystopian thriller "The Long Walk" (Sept. 12) – with Mark Hamill torturing quite a few members of young Hollywood – and Edgar Wright's new take on "The Running Man" (Nov. 7) starring Glen Powell. And on the book front, King's latest novel "Never Flinch" is new in stores while "Hansel & Gretel," his children's book with Maurice Sendak, is out Sept. 2. In honor of "Chuck," here are the most essential King movies, ranked: 15. 'Gerald's Game' (2017) Carla Gugino and Bruce Greenwood play a couple who go on a romantic getaway to rekindle their marriage. The wife gets handcuffed to the bed, hubby has a heart attack, there are no neighbors to call and she struggles to maintain her sanity in a stressful situation. (Also, good luck trying to unsee the super-duper creepy Moonlight Man.) Where to watch: Netflix. 14. 'The Running Man' (1987) So what if this futuristic action flick isn't exactly faithful to the '82 King book (written as Richard Bachman)? It's an enjoyable time watching Arnold Schwarzenegger as a framed military man on a brutally deadly game show, tackling over-the-top bruisers and TV host baddie Richard Dawson in a movie that's more WrestleMania than social satire. Where to watch: Paramount+, Apple TV, Amazon, Fandango at Home. 13. 'The Monkey' (2025) Gory and gloriously absurd, the horror comedy stars Theo James in a dual role as twins who thought they got rid of a cursed monkey toy when they were kids until it comes back into their lives and brings a whole heap of bloody death. Sure, it's extremely demented, but this wacky film also has something deep to say about mortality. Where to watch: Apple TV, Amazon, Fandango at Home. 12. 'The Green Mile' (1999) The sentimental prison drama based on King's serial novel gets its hooks in thanks to the one-two emotional punch of Tom Hanks and Michael Clarke Duncan. Hanks plays a death row prison guard who doesn't know what to make of a gentle but enigmatic giant (Duncan), convicted of murdering two girls, who exhibits strange abilities. Where to watch: Apple TV, Amazon, Fandango at Home. 11. '1408' (2007) In the most underrated King movie, a supernatural skeptic (John Cusack) who writes about haunted places takes interest in the legendarily creepy room of a New York high-rise. It's astoundingly kooky but also a thoughtful study of cynicism and belief. Where to watch: Apple TV, Amazon, Fandango at Home. 10. 'Doctor Sleep' (2019) Ewan McGregor stars in "The Shining" sequel as a grown-up Danny Torrance, decades past surviving the horrors at the Overlook Hotel, now sober after years of alcoholism and helping a young psychic girl (Kyliegh Curran). It mines familiar ground by carrying over "Shining" themes and characters, but it's best going its own way as a reluctant hero's journey. Where to watch: Apple TV, Amazon, Fandango at Home. 9. 'Stand by Me' (1986) King is as much a master of Americana as he is frights, and Rob Reiner's coming-of-age tale of four misfits and their adventures to find a dead body is top notch at capturing the unbreakable bond of friendship and the fleeting nature of childhood innocence. Where to watch: Paramount+, Pluto TV, Apple TV, Amazon, Fandango at Home. 8. 'The Mist' (2007) How do you make a King novella even more bleak? Director Frank Darabont manages to do that rather well with this story of small-town Maine folks stuck in a supermarket, thanks to a mysterious mist and monstrous hidden creatures outside. Come for the paranoia and tribalism, stay for the gut-punch ending. Where to watch: Paramount+, Apple TV, Amazon, Fandango at Home. 7. 'Misery' (1990) A modern take might have nutty Annie Wilkes making a TikTok or simply sliding into the DMs of author Paul Sheldon to profess her fandom but it wouldn't have been so malevolently perfect as this pre-Internet chiller. Kathy Bates earns her Oscar and then some, taking Annie's terrifying adoration for James Caan's Sheldon to a disturbing, hide-your-eyes level. Where to watch: Apple TV, Amazon, Fandango at Home. 6. 'The Dead Zone' (1983) Christopher Walken is a psychic schoolteacher who 'sees' someone's secrets if he touches them, including a vision of a nuclear holocaust after shaking the hand of a senatorial candidate (Martin Sheen). More than 40 years later, the film's political bent seems timelier than ever. Where to watch: Pluto TV, Apple TV, Amazon, Fandango at Home. 5. 'Carrie' (1976) Sissy Spacek exudes quiet, tortured grace as a teenager just blossoming into womanhood, leading to bullying from classmates and her abusively religious mom (Piper Laurie). The last 30 minutes is a jaw-dropping transformation from childhood innocence to murderous hysteria. Where to watch: Max, Apple TV, Amazon, Fandango at Home. 4. 'It' (2017) Taking the friendship stuff from "Stand by Me" and weaving in a deliciously evil clown in a poufy wardrobe, "It" works magic on a lot of different levels and leaves you desperately seeking more Pennywise. Warning: May not be for those skeeved out by buckets of blood shooting out of a sink. Where to watch: Max, Apple TV, Amazon, Fandango at Home. 3. 'The Life of Chuck' (2025) A more life-affirming, dance-filled Stephen King movie than you probably expect. Featuring Tom Hiddleston as a businessman with some sweet moves, it's a proudly unconventional flick that begins with the end of the world and ends with a haunted attic, and everything in between is a thought-provoking delight. Where to watch: In theaters. 2. 'The Shawshank Redemption' (1994) There's not much scary here other than some jail guards. Instead, what makes "Shawshank" an all-timer is the core friendship of two inmates (played by Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman) who figure out they'd better 'get busy living or get busy dying." Where to watch: Apple TV, Amazon, Fandango at Home. 1. 'The Shining' (1980) King notoriously disliked Stanley Kubrick's masterpiece, but it's the best of the entire lot. Come for the infamous scenes – 'Heeeeere's Johnny,' anyone? – and stay for the exceptional exploration of isolation, one man's descent into madness, and the terrifying effect on his family. Where to watch: Max, Apple TV, Amazon, Fandango at Home.

Cozy sleeper sofas for your living room, guest room or home office
If you're short on space, sleeper sofas are a versatile addition to any home, offering comfy seating and a convenient solution for accommodating overnight guests. If you don't have a spare bedroom, no problem, because a sleeper sofa can transform any room into guest quarters. They come in various styles, including pull-out sofas, futons and sectionals, catering to different decor styles and budgets. If you're in the market for a sleeper sofa, it's essential to consider factors like room size, how often you think you'll use it and personal design preferences. You'll also want to ensure the mattress is comfortable enough for a good night's sleep. Here are 10 sleeper sofas to consider. Futons aren't just for college kids. This Novogratz Brittany futon combines a modern design with functionality and comes in several colors. The futon easily converts from a sofa to a bed, making it ideal for small spaces. Its foam cushioning provides firm support, ensuring comfort for both sitting and sleeping. The futon is more affordable than many other sleeper sofa options because it doesn't contain a mattress, so you may want to pick up a plush mattress topper to have on hand when you need to use it for sleeping. If you're an Amazon Prime member, you can get these items to your door ASAP. You can join or start a 30-day free trial to start your shopping today. Another stylish and modern futon choice, this Andora coil at Ashley Furniture features foam padding over independently encased coils for superior comfort and a split-back design. The tufted back and seat cushions add a touch of elegance, while the faux leather upholstery ensures durability and easy maintenance. If you have pets, it might not be a wise choice, as their nails could puncture the upholstery. You also might want to invest in some Leather Honey cleaner spray so that the white surface stays nice and bright! Another unique option is this Her Majesty daybed and pullout trundle bed at Mattress Firm, which strays from the traditional sleeper sofa but offers plenty of options for sitting and sleeping. This L-shaped polyester sectional from Jayden Creation at Home Depot offers a pull-out sleeper bed and the bonus of a chaise with hidden storage. It features square arms and overstuffed back cushions for added comfort. The sectional also comes in several color choices if you'd prefer something other than white.

Williamspace's 104-inch sectional at Walmart gives you lots of bang for your buck with a pull-out sleeper bed, storage chaise and two stools, providing ample seating and sleeping space. The charcoal gray chenille upholstery adds a touch of sophistication and is easy to clean.

This Serta Augustus sofa bed at Home Depot offers a queen-size sleeping area in a stylish couch design. The couch is encased in a solid wood frame and legs and the cushions provide high comfort foam that easily convert to a bed. If you prefer a more traditional option with an actual mattress, consider this American Furniture Classics style. This Altari sleeper from Ashley Furniture at Walmart has a minimalist design, plush cushions and two decorative throw pillows. Upholstered in polyester fabric, it seamlessly blends with various décor styles while the pull-out queen memory foam mattress provides a comfortable bed for overnight guests. While Walmart is a convenient shopping option, you can save a little by getting this directly through Ashley Furniture. This sectional sofa from Latitude Run at Wayfair offers a pullout sleeper bed in durable linen, but it's not just a place to sit or sleep. Lift the seat and uncover spacious, hidden storage space, perfect for stashing blankets, throw pillows and other essentials. Its flexible design allows you to swap the storage seat and pull out bed to fit any room layout. Another option by Mercer41, offers hidden storage, built-in cup holders and USB ports for charging phones and other devices. This Serta Princeton sofa bed is a budget-friendly option that doesn't compromise on comfort. It pulls out to the size of a full size mattress so you can rest easy on its plush cushions. The darker chenille upholstery is perfect for high traffic areas. If you like the chenille fabric and space-saving element of the Serta, also consider this Latitude Run compressed version which tucks into a corner and sits flush with the floor. This multifunctional Homefun piece at Home Depot is designed for contemporary living spaces. Besides its pull-out bed and chaise with storage, it includes a hidden table under the side armrest, providing convenient spaces to store essentials and keep the living area organized. Its compact design makes it suitable for small apartments or rooms where space is at a premium. If you want to protect the soft chenille from pets or kids, then you might considering picking up this stylish couch cover at Amazon. For more deals, visit This 55-inch convertible sofa bed is upholstered in soft velvet and has an adjustable backrest that allows for multiple reclining positions.

It's a Father's Day Father of Mine giveaway weekend
Michael Holley has spoken. The once-per-week PFT Live co-host has read Father of Mine. And he likes it. He shared a surprise review of the book during Friday's PFT Live season finale. (The video is attached to this blurb.) You can get the ebook for a mere 99 cents on Amazon. It's an incredible bargain. A stupidly low price. It's the continuation of a misguided New Year's resolution to make the Father of Mine and Son of Mine ebooks available for less than a dollar for all of 2025. I don't care about the money, obviously. The goal is to give you something to fill the space between football games. And with fewer than three months to go until the next football season starts, you can pass the time by diving into both books. And since it's Father's Day weekend, I'll be giving away three signed copies of the print edition. Send an email to florio@ with this subject line: 'Father's Day weekend 2025 giveaway.' I'll get them signed and stuffed and sent later this week. Send the email. Download the ebooks. Take it from Michael Holley.
