Just did our Tesco order and was adding my usual Coke supply to the basket when I noticed the price of a 500ml bottle - £1.08!

And if that's Tesco, I'm guessing it's a lot dearer in smaller shops... As you can probably tell, it's been a long time since I bought a 500ml as I tend to have access to bigger bottles or cans no matter where I am ;) , but it got me wondering how much such items cost local to you :?

Compounding the silly price was the fact you could get a 1.25l bottle for a quid :roll:

^^^Which is what I've been doing. Local supermarkets have the 1.5l or whatever it is for £1 on the label.

Stop drinking expensive sugar water, that's my tip.

Nothing else tastes as good, especially cold...

Have you tried beer? Or just fresh water?

I drink mainly water, or red bush tea.
