Abstract
A cup or glass is able to retain currency, either folded or unfolded, or a flat planar object, such as a standard-sized credit card or business card, in a slit located in the side of the cup or glass. Alternatively, two slits can be located in opposite sides of the upper rim of the cup or glass for permitting the two slits to jointly retain the credit card, business card or currency, or similar object, in the upper rim of the cup or glass. The cup or glass may have multiple slits for simultaneously retaining more than one credit card, more than one business card or several currency bills or, simultaneously, a combination thereof.
