Title: Dr Pepper going Throwback
Post by: Kilroy on July 02, 2010, 08:09:48 pm
In honour of Dr Pepper's 125th anniversary, they are  releasing a Cane sugar version  w/  retro labels. Look for it to hit the shelves  September

That is awesome! I am going to have to stock up on that. Now I can have the real sugar Dr. Pepper in my machine without spending a ton of money to have a case sent to me from texas.

I agree with Kilroy!  Would love to see that in glass bottles at Costco!

My bad - It is releasing this weekend   and available through September.

"Cans and bottles will feature old logos in the company's deep red, and colorful designs with lions and bright swirls of color harkening back to the 60s. Popular phrases such as "I'm a Pepper" also appear."

I'm guessing  2 liter bottles, but one can have hope

Yeah, I saw it at Wally World today.
$2.50 a 12 pack.
Their Coke Pepsi and Dr pepper
products are priced lower than the local supermarkets
weekly 3 for $12 deal.
And full cases are 5 bux!

Is there a place to find out where to get this stuff? I can't find it anywhere around me. I'm thinking of just calling the distribution place here in town and asking them about it.

Soda is about the only product I know of that has remained consistently priced over the last twenty-five years. I remember selling Coke products for $4.50 a case so the local super markets could turn around a sale it, on sale, at $5.50 a case. And that was twenty years ago.
