10) Check out this easy solution when you don't have a cup holder

No cup holder? No problem. Find a spare workout shoe in the back of your car and tada! Place your cup in there for an instant cupholder. Or, if you don't have a spare set of shoes and are at a place where you can sit down, and you don't want your drink to spill, take your shoe off and put the cup in your shoe temporarily while you eat.
