Jonesin for Refreshment

 Jones Rainbow

So while I was cruising through the new Shaw’s flyer making my grocery list I noticed that Jones NY soda 12 packs are 4/$10 while the regular Coke/Pepsi is 3/$10. When did Jones soda get to be cheaper than Coke/Pepsi?!?

Not that I’m complaining mind you, I’d prefer the flavorful, real cane sugar varity of Jones to Coke or Pepsi any day but it used to be a premium beverage that was more expensive. Now it would appear that only the glass bottles have kept their higher price points. I know what I’ll be adding to my stockpile. Mmmmmm…fufuey.

Cherry Tootsie Pop in a Can

   Diet Dr Pepper Cherry Chocolate

Thats right. The new Diet Dr Pepper Cherry Chocolate flavor is like drinking a cherry tootsie roll pop. I find it rather yummy although alot of the ladies I talk to find it yucky. I don’t drink much soda though so one lasts me all day and is like a beverage and dessert all in one. I really like this flavor. I liked the cherry vanilla flavor as well, but never got around to trying the berries and cream. Unfortunately like every other limited edition it will eventually be replaced. Until then I plan on hoarding $1/1 coupons and stockpiling it in my closet.
