Do you stock up on sodas? Stores have sodas price at 3 cases for $11.00 (with a limit) and baskets are full. Do you do this? If so, how long does it take to drink 3 cases? I don't drink sodas often. I may buy a 2 liter once every 6 weeks.

I dont, and when I did drink alot of soda rarely did I do that. But being I have Diabetes 2 I drink a can maybe once every other month
-
I can't drink soda anymore because I have such problems with tooth decay it is insane. Since, I have stopped drinking soda, my problem is much better.
-
i usually buy it if it's on sale. I don't drink alot of soda, but I like to have it on hand for company.
-
I never buy soda anymore. I like the taste, but the sugar gives me a stomach ache. For some reason, Mountain Dew specifically makes my joints ache.
-
I used to drink a two liter of Cherry 7up every single month or maybe sometimes two. I drank much more pop when I was younger and every chance I went to a restaurant I would order some sprite, 7up or mountain dew. Of course like everyone when I would get some fast food I would order a pop then too. I think drinking 3 cases when I was in my pop drinking prime would have taken me a few months though.
I rarely drink it since I've heard it's not as healthy for you. We stopped buying it altogether and I just drink water just about every time we eat out now. I also skip the pop for lemonade when buying fast food now and don't really miss it.
-
i stock up when on sale i bring one can to work each day so 4 days a week is 5 sodas a week i go thru on average
-
nah we buy aabout 6 for the week and maybe go back and get a few more toward the end of the week..depending on who may have been over...or coming over..
-
I love Dr. Pepper so I usually buy enough to last me at least a month at the time. I buy the 16.9 oz bottles by the six pack so I can close them up.
-
Always stock up when they are on sale. I drink about 1 soda every other day so I go through them pretty fast.
-
Our household kicked soda December 2017.
-
Sparkling water is a great alternative.

If they are on a super sale I may buy like in this case the 3. Otherwise I buy maybe 1. I don't drink them all the time though so they last a while.

Nah? Then you say you buy about 6 cases for the week and then go back for more before the end of the week? And you say you do not drink a lot?
-

If you drink one a day at work - how is 4 days a week equal to 5 sodas?
-
When you see a sell, go for it, I have stocked up on stuff.
-
I don't drink soda too often. I like sprite but that's about it. I only have it to treat myself here and there.
-
The prices of sodas have skyrocketed. I look for special deals.
My nurse told me to avoid sugary drinks...they are nothing but trouble.
Very important: I read the labels...and look for the listed ingredients.
If they have: High fructose corn syrup, too much sugar or more added sugar
or other dangerous ingredients like artificial flavors or colors, I just do not
buy them. Colas, Dr. Pepper and root beers are, for these reasons, excluded.
-
"Cream sodas" are my favorite sodas.
I love that bubbly vanilla flavor.
-
We drink diet soda and stock up when it's on sale, but lately I just order sugar free Crystal Light single servings and keep a bottle in the fridge.
-
No, I am not a soda drinker but my Mom is so when I visit her if I see a good sale I will purchase for her; since she does not get out like she use to ; so I try and stock up her house when I visit.
-
never really stock up. I drink one a day whch I should not but when i drink soda i drink black tea with it. I do this to kill bacteria since i too had cavities or tooth decay;since I started this no issues.
-
I don't drink any carbonated beverage because I have never enjoyed that feeling as I drink and swallow. But most of my family does and they stock up every time there is a great sale. Guess I would too if I drank it.
-
I used to buy in quantities when I drank it. But I stopped drinking that about 10 years ago.
-
I drink very little soda, mostly water.
-
I don't drink soft drinks any more but my husband does. I will stock up when they are on sale. I have 7 12-packs stocked up at this moment.
-
will buy when on sale if not they are as much as 6.99 for a 12 pack. I drink some once a week or so but only with the sugar. my husband asnd son drink one can a day the diet one.i remember years ago pepsi had a 10.00 rebate that was good.
-
I do buy it when it is on sale and usually the 3 cases which last for months unless we have company or it is around a holiday. Try to purchase regular and diet to have on hand.
-
I drink a diet Pepsi once in awhile. A 12-pack lasts me a long time. But I try to find a good price when I buy it.
-
I avoid soda as much as possible
-
I try not to drink sodas it has way to much sugar. I like drinking tea or water.
-
Unfortunately I am addicted to coca cola and it is fattening and destroys enamel on the teeth not to say the lining in your stomach. I still drink it knowing all of this and still stock up on coke.
-
We don't usually because we usually buy 2 liters and can usually find them at a decent price.
-
Used to have soda practically with every dinner as a teenager. In more recent years I've been having water as the default instead and saving the soda for meals it really "goes with" (burgers, pizza etc). Probably 1 can per week for me now.
We get the store brand because it's about half the price of Pepsi but 95% as good.
-
No I don' t stock up because the only soda I drink now is the kind in glass bottles with real sugar and no HFCS. And I really don't drink that very often because of type 2 diabetes. I do love it but I just know it isn't good or me.
-
I rarely purchase soda from the store... although I do on occasion indulge myself in bottles of Coke Zero when they are having great sales, like 1 bottle for .69cents if you purchase 5 at once. But other than those great sales, I stay away from soda buying.
Like you, I do see people load up their carts when they have sales. Wasted calories if they do it on the regular, I try not to judge.
-
Sparkling water is a great alternative.
Especially if you add fresh lemon and/or lime to it. Love, love, love it. :icon_rr:
:fish:
-
I'm trying to cut back on soda but will indulge every now and then.
-
i just bought 4 12 packs for 10.00.
-
I have to stock up on soda. My husband goes through a case of mountain dew a day. Crazy, yeah I know.
-
i do not really buy soda as the people i live with buy them. but yes they stock up on them. they buy shasta
-
has anyone tried the cocacola orange vanilla it is good
-
I rarely drink sodas anymore...
-
I stock up if there is a sale because soda is high.
-
I usually buy it on sale. Hubby drinks it, But he only drinks one can a day. Me I have not drank a soda pop in 65 years. I don't like the taste on any of it. And I don't drink sugar in my tea of coffee. I could save money every month if he quit drinking it. And he would feel a lot better but just getting him to do it is not going to happen.
-
Stop & Shop has been having sales on them lately. 88 cents each, but you have to buy 5. It's a pretty good deal & I stock up for like 2 weeks worth.
-
No I don' t stock up because the only soda I drink now is the kind in glass bottles with real sugar and no HFCS. And I really don't drink that very often because of type 2 diabetes. I do love it but I just know it isn't good or me.
I don't know if any of the ones I drink are available with real sugar. I would like to try one to see if I can tell a difference in the taste. The only thing I really remember seeing that on was Coke and I don't drink it much.
-

That stuff is awesome. They had free samples at our Walmart right after it came out.

I use to have a neighbor that drank 2 of he 2 liters a day of the Pepsi....by himself. I assume he still does it. haha
-
Don't really stock up but I try and keep some for company.
-
We don't buy a lot in our house. I drink one every other day on average.
-
I use to stock up, when the kid were teenagers, never knew who was coming to stay. Know we only drink fuzzy water.
-
We don't drink soda in our house.
-
I am addicted to soda, I drink it daily , usually at least 3 cans. I have been trying to cut down and drink more water. I do stock up occasionally if there is a sale.
-
OMG, when I was in my 20's & 30's, I drank soda like it was going out of style. Now, I've since slowed down and hardly drink it at all.
-
I do not drink sodas anymore. I drink only water and juice with less sugar in it.
-
Our household kicked soda December 2017.
I quit drinking soda a number of years go during Lent......but somehow, I have gotten back to drinking it. I know it isn't good for me, yet.....grrrrrr, I still drink a bottle several times per week.
-
The only soda I love is Ginger Ale!
-
I'm terrible in the summer - all I drink is pop. It just feels more refreshing than water to me.
It does depend on how warm it is for how much I drink. 70s? Maybe 2-3 cans a day. 80s and 90s? Probably 1 can per degree :P
-
When it is a really good sale, but not normally.
-
I can't afford to stock up on soda but I by 2 liter or 1 liter once every other week.
-
I'm trying to stop drinking sugary drinks, but I enjoy sunkist orange soda.
-
I do not buy sodas anymore because I drink more water and less sugary drinks.
-
Yeah, I tend to get multiple cases of Coke. It's just so much easier getting a ton of soda in one sitting than to have to return to the store to get more soda in a week.
-
I only drink diet soda.
-
whenever it goes on sale i stock up on soda
-

I do stock up when they're on sale. My local grocer has them on sale every six months or so @ 5 for $10. I'll buy 5 or 10, according to how much cash I have.
That's enough to last me til they go on sale again.
-
Soda is getting more expensive every year! I usually buy soda as needed. I usually buy a liter or 2 liter depending on the price every other week. I usually buy diet coke & sometimes none diet sodas.
