I do the same when Woolies or Coles have cheap Cokes ;-)

When you eat in a fast food outlet (Oporto) and they don't have Coke? What do you do?

I drank a bottle of Coke today (1.25 litre).

I've been helping Jessica packing, and being extremely thirty. I don't usually drink that much Coca-Cola in one day. Today is an exception, I drank a whole 1.25 litre bottle of Coke by myself.

I've been known to down two-liter bottles of soda in a day. :wink:

... and two coffees + two teas yesterday.
It was a record for me. I don't usually consume that much caffeine in one day.

wow wish i could say that there have been days where i have had and upward of 10-12 cups of coffee and 2 or 3 591ml bottles of coke, and then a couple red bulls on top of that, talk about a
caffeine high. but i also can work a 23 hour day that way, and when your in the middle of harvest season and working in town full time you still have to get all your work done right. :wink:

Going through southern Quebec on a bus trip to Montreal, once past the border, farms are everywhere, with corn planted as far as the eye can see!

The only Canadian produce I have seen and purchased locally, marked "Produce of Canada", has been greenhouse (hothouse) tomatoes.

For Mandrake,

Coles has 24 cans of Pepsi (and its varieties) for $7.99, it seems like a good value.

The bad thing is that discount does not apply to Coca-Cola.

Around here, when a supermarket has Coke or Pepsi on sale, it's usually one brand each week. This week, Pepsi might be on sale, the next week it's Coke.

No new flavors from either company have been introduced in the Boston market as of late.

That's not bad at all! Woolworths had them two for $20 last week, so I grabbed four then. Plenty to last a while. :)

I don't like Coke or Pepsi. Cola drinks make me feel rather sickly. I much prefer a good old fashioned cup of tea. My younger brother Jeff drinks a lot of regular Coke though, and sometimes Pepsi. But not the low calorie or sugar free varieties though. He can't get enough of the sugary stuff! I keep telling him that horrible syrupy gunk will rot his teeth eventually!

I don't know when I had a Soft drink, or as you call them
Soda's last.
I never touch the stuff.
I drink hot tea.
