Title: 8oz bottles in los angeles

Any members of the Los Angeles chapter know where you can buy the 8 oz bottles (or 12 oz) bottles of Sprite? Coca Cola? in at least six packs. I am aware of bevmo, but they do not sell any 8oz bottles and sell 12 oz bottles that fit in my vendo 39 individually, which can get very expensive
Let me know-
Thanks
Shawn

I have 8 oz bottles of Sprite and Diet Coke sent to me from a friend in Michigan so I know the glass bottles are produced. I have pleaded with some of the managers at my local Coke plant to carry them as well here in California.
Nothing has happened, If you do find them, please post again

I have asked the "Ralphs" that is close by my house (San Pedro) if they can maybe special order the sprite. Currently they have a six pack of 8 oz coke special ($4.00 a pack), however they are the "American Idol Season 2" special labels. Nonetheless, I bought four packs and today I was able to use my Vendo 39 for the first time for Mothers Day!
Additionally, the folks at "real soda" got back to me and gave me a phone number and contact for someone to call (Eric at 310 326 9202 x102) and I can set up a time to go to there warehouse (3171 Fujita St in Torrance. It's across from Torrance Memorial, off Early Avenue, between Hawthorne & Crenshaw) to buy soda from them. They make 12 oz Dad's root beer, cream soda and Bubble Up, and a few others. They fit in my vendo 39. They offered me "warehouse" prices, just have to buy them by the case, which will most likely be cheaper than buying individually at BevMo. They said they are trying to get BevMo to carry their bottles in at least six packs-

one more thing - it does not have to be sprite, 7-up will do, slice, basically lemon lime type drink, so any of the above readilly available in 8 oz or 12 oz bottles that will fit in vendo 39 in Los Angeles please post
Terry - I have tried the major grocery stores around me and will try the target, walmart, etc..
Thanks for the help
