+1 I think I got mine from a Sportsmans Warehouse or something. Awesome cups though!

Yep, I probably have a dozen of them laying around.  Totally hooked on them.  After using MIL canteen cups for years, you will go crazy over these things.

Yep.  Had one for 6-8 years, at least.  They seem to be around $8.00 locally (middle TN).
Have picked up another one or two at garage sales for $1 or so.  

IIRC, some of the newer GSI cups are a wee bit too small for the 32 oz Nalgene bottles; I know a Coleman
version I picked up at a yard sale is; be sure to test fit!

The only thing I don't like about them is they're a little unstable on an Esbit stove, even when it's folded in
a bit.  I addressed the problem by driling 4 holes in the stove (beneath the interlocking tabs) & running
steel skewers through, to make a stable "grate" on which to place the cup.  Much more stable, sits
closer to the flame, & allows using other, different cups/pots with greater ease.

My son likes making tea in his when we're camping.

I've been looking for one of those to heat up water in. I'll have to look at Bass Pro or Dicks next time I'm there.

Hit eBay. There is a couple of places that sell the GSI Alpine Cup. I have been very lucky with a couple of shops there that have given me a great price.

after I found these cups, I gave up my East German mess kit for good.

I always carry some folded heavy foil to make a lid for the cup.   I carry the cup  on the outside of my pack on a clip.
