Wow. That's a lot. Here, I can get the Mexican Cokes at Costco. Sometimes I see Crush at the supermarket, but the bottles are too round to fit through the holes of my machine. Only a few grocery stores carry the 8oz Cokes and for the price they charge it isn't worth it, so I stick w/ the larger Mexican ones from Costco. I can get Cheerwine 12oz glass at Wegman's. That's about it.

Vendo 63. They used to work when they were taller and skinnier, but now they are shorter and have a larger diameter, kind of like an IBC bottle.
