Clever little gift. Fits over any coffee mug or short glass and all your pens, pencils etc fit right in. Functional as well as clever. I bought one of these for each of the 25 office staff and they love them. Visitors to our office always ask where they can buy them. A great deal for only a couple bucks.

I am a Financial Advisor, so the "Mug Boss" on my desk is full of pens, pencils, highlighters and a big eraser. As a result, I have uncovered several other woodworkers in my client base when they notice it. I am an enthusiastic "other time" woodworker, so this reminds me of the pastime I love and helps me share it as I work.

I might have to try and find some miniature tools to slip in the pockets. I wonder if a prybar would work on portfolio allocation .....

Most of the time my desk is cluttered with one job on top of the other. I keep thinking a credenza would solve that problem but it doesn't. The frustration is when you need a letter opener or a pen, and they are buried in the pile. Or I need the mini razor that slides back in the plastic holder. That baby really lays flat, and can get lost under most anything.
This Mug Boss is great for all of those problem. Pens, pencils, letter opener, and whatever else you may use on your desk, are always at the ready. It looks really cool. Has a handy look to it and hints that things are under control. Great material, sure to last a long time, and fits a standard size coffee mug.
It's cheap. Buy a few and give them out to your friends. It's an upfront desk reminder of you. Great conversation piece. I really don't see any down side to it. Makes a great compliment to the Bucket Boss, and the rest of the line. Highly recommended.

Two ugly coffee mugs will do the same job, but how cool is your accountant's logo and maybe a Local 1030 Environmental Workers of NJ mug gonna stack up to a BucketBoss?

Look, you worked hard to get off the jobsite and into a chair. You wear shirts with buttons. You have a slight crease in your pants. Your shoes are relatively clean. But you still remember eating lunch out of a box, wearing work boots, and having your own nicked-up hardhat. The BucketBoss lets people know you still know how to kick someone's behind for slacking on the job.

And it keeps the pens separated nicely from the pencils, and doesn't let the Sharpies get mixed up with either of them.

I gave two of these as a gift to my fiancee who is part of the Bucket Boss faithful after he got a full size one from his sister for Christmas and used it extensively during our house remodelling project. He had never seen anything like it and immediately went looking for a mug so he could put it on his desk at home. The second went to work the next day and he says he still gets compliments on how cute it is.

My wife and I purchased 3 bucket bosses for stocking stuffers, they all got a great laugh and will use them alot

Got this as a stocking stuffer for xmas. At first I thought "well its cute, but what good is it?" Found out that it is more useful than I thought it would be. Holds those pencils and pieces of chalk, I use for woodworking in my shop, that I use to have to search for. Now, (if I remember to put em back) I have em all in one central location. Did have to go to the local coffee cup store to find one that it would fit on. Most of my cups are of the large variety (fewer trips to the pot). It also has enough room to hold a small sliding caliper,a 6" rule, two small screwdrivers, three allen wrench's I use a lot, a small crescent wrench, a big pink eraser, and my spare pair of reading glasse's. May have to get another as this one is proving to be most useful. I can carry it from bench to work table and have all the small stuff handy in one container. Recommend this one.

I own two of these, one for the shop and one for the home office. I'll probably get one for my business office as well. This is one of the greatest inventions of all time. I can't believe Bucket Boss is discontinuing these.

When I first saw this on amazon.com, I immediately purchased it. It's a great, sturdy gift for pencil pushers like myself. You can fit everything from scissors to staple removers in it. People have seen it on my desk and laughed. Makes a great gift...especially for those who are hard to shop for. Definitely worth the money.

This is a great little gift, which has some practicality to it. The little outside pockets work pretty well... great for the carpenter (or those that dream to be one!)
