Title: anyone find Mexican 7-UP? Post by: darktone on November 20, 2007, 07:54:14 pm None of the Mexican stores carry it or can even get it in my area. I contacted the 7-UP main office a couple of years ago about getting it in a glass bottle and they said it was not made anywhere in the world in a glass bottle- I told them about the Mexican variety and they thought I was lying or something..........

Not to say it isn't available... Title: Re: anyone find Mexican 7-UP? Post by: loman4ec on November 20, 2007, 10:19:55 pm Well I can shoot down their claim that it isn't done anywhere in the world because it is bottled in all sizes of glass returnables in Thailand :)

Title: Re: anyone find Mexican 7-UP? Post by: darktone on November 21, 2007, 08:18:33 pm Thanks for the link Dr. That's quite a drive for me though- must be close to three hundred miles one way. I wonder if there is any good stores like this in the Chicago/Milwaukee area?
Title: Re: anyone find Mexican 7-UP? Post by: dr galaga on November 21, 2007, 10:16:07 pm I get stuff from Retro Soda (http://www.retrosoda.com) at the Chicagoland Show. I just looked and they have American 7up (http://www.retrosoda.com/seup.html) made with sugar!

They used to be located in Arlington Heights Illinois, but I believe they are now out of Niles Illinois. You can email them with a pick up order and they are very accommodating.
Title: Re: anyone find Mexican 7-UP? Post by: darktone on November 22, 2007, 07:27:10 am Neat website but they are very expensive! I can get Mexican 12 ounce Coke for $21 a case- Retro soda wants $34! Plus I can get the $21 case price two minutes from my house. I was hoping to find a place I could get even better prices if I bought in Quantity- say 20 cases at a time.
