Woman who showed her cup full of ice after being left in burning car gets offered new car by company
The Stanley cup brand has offered to replace her car
Unless you've been living under a rock, you'll know that Stanley cups are everywhere at the moment.
The large tumblers that keep cold drinks cool and warm drinks hot are all over social media at the moment, and apparently they're worth the hype.
The price of the cups start at $45 for its 40z H.20 FlowState Tumbler - the same one TikToker Danielle appeared to have.

Danielle, who goes by @danimarielettering on the video sharing platform, shared a clip that showed the aftermath of her car after it set on fire.
The Kia vehicle is burnt to a crisp but, by means of a miracle, her Stanley tumbler sat in the cup holder went practically unscathed.
Picking up the tumbler, Danielle shakes it to prove that is still had ice in it.
Stanley promises that it makes 'tough bottles', and it's safe to say it's done just that.
Danielle's video has since gone viral and has amassed over 30 million views.
She captioned the clip and tagged the brand, writing: "Thirsty after you catch on fire? @Stanley 1913 is like no problem i gotchu."
People have since commented on the post and shared their amazement.
"Stanley surviving a fire with ice in it is crazy," said one person.
"I don’t think stanley will ever come up with a better ad than this one," quipped another.
And a third echoed: "Stanley needs to use this for an ad because this just convinced me to order one."
In light of the impressive and free marketing Danielle has accidentally given the brand, dozens of people called on Stanley to buy her a new car - and it has answered people's demands.
Stanley's global president Terence Reilly stitched the TikTok video and shared the brand's hopes of getting her a new car.
"We've all seen your video. Wow what an ordeal, and we're all really glad you're safe," he said.
"I've seen a lot of comments that we should send you some Stanleys.
"Well, we're gonna send you some Stanleys, but there's one more thing and we've never done this before and we'll probably never do it again, but we'd love to replace your vehicle… yeah, all of us at Stanley we'd really like to replace your vehicle."
In light of their kind gesture, lots of TikTokers said that they're now going to buy a Stanley cup for themselves.
Also, Danielle's video proves that you get your money's worth with the tumbler. I mean, that thing survived an actual fire.
