Someone earlier mentioned Odd Lots.  I tried Big Lots (don't know if it is the same chain) yesterday and they had zilch.  Dollar General sounds promising.  I never go, but it isn't far, so I might run down and check for Chocolate Soldier.  Someone said it beats YooHoo.Other than IBC, I can't find much in glass.  Boylan and Jones soda I can get at World Market, but they run about 3.99 for 4. WalMart had Crush, but not in the last year or so. '<img'>

Is it a Super WallyWorld?  If so, check the other food isles, like the bargain and seasonal.  My local store does not keep the Crush with the other soft drinks!?!

Adam101,
Do you know of any good websites relating to bottling your own sodas?

All,
I picked up some Orange Crush and Stewart's Root Beer in 12 oz twist-tops and some 8 oz Cokes that need a bottle opener.  All at Walmart.  They had other Crush flavors and IBC, too.  I might go back and stock up on some to try.  I didn't see any diets.  Here are the prices I paid.

Crush 6pk - $2.50
Coke 6pk - $3.98
Stewarts 4pk - $2.50

I've got a Dollar General about 3 blocks from home.  I'll have to check for this Chocolate Soldier y'all are talking about.  I've heard of them before but never had one.

Solder rocks. Like a Choc-ola or a Yoohoo.

Hello

Public's has 8oz coke classic bottle 6 packs for about $5. I think I would just buy beer at that price.

I have been checking out the small beer bottles & have found Bud, Bud lite & Corona in the small 8 oz bottles.

Paul No not really you could try googling it But doubt their is Much, their is a Lot on Botteling beer tho and its basically the same Idea. Just use a Store bought Coke to know how far to fill the bottles.  

OH yea I was at Sams Club today and the Coke/diet is 8 oz 24 pack for 11.00 IN Embossed glass( Thats new, usually its  with painted on lettering)........Paul if you have any other questions just reply back.  '<img'>

Since we have another baby on the way, a friend joked that we could put the bottles of milk/formula in my Vendo, so that when we need to feed the baby, I'd just drop in a dime and down would drop a chilled bottle for the little one!'<img'>

I can't believe no one got a chuckle or responded to that. ':O'

To refill I dispense the soda pop into a large measuring pitcher and then use a funnel to get it into the bottles. Its not that difficult once you get the hang of it and if you have others that can help all the better. Especially if you have kids you can use them as cheap labor. then you get a bottle capper and blank bottle caps and your all set. Of course you need to clean the bottles beforehand ':p'

Adam101,
Hey check this out. You could get 100 unused Diet Coke bottlecaps for your home-bottling process:

Ends on Feb 20th.

Actually, now that I checked to see what else he's seling, I see he has TONS of unused bottlecaps! But then you may even know about him already.

Like this auction of literally 8,600 assorted unused bottlecaps!
