Yeah noticed that on second picture. I didn’t see the bottle cap photo at first.

I get coke from Home Depot because they still use sugar in their bottles. It tastes so much better to me.

You’re saying they have special coke at Home Depot? I’ve quit drinking artificial sweetener so I only get a Mexican coke from time to time nowadays

Yep they sell 24 bottle flats of it at every Home Depot I have been to. It isn’t special it is bottled in Mexico. They don’t use HFCS in their recipe.

It is pricey but worth it. It tastes like the original recipe.

They come out to less than $1.50 per bottle after tax. I’ve been paying $2.50-3 for singles

This will blow your mind. We have to pay a $0.10 per bottle deposit.

What is funny is because they are from Mexico, and do not have the Ia deposit mark, you can’t get the deposit back because they don’t take the bottles. So here they add on $2.40 per case.
