remember the other day when i only had one diet coke?
well, yesterday i was at my fave retail establishment of all time, target, picking up a few grocery items. moving from the produce section to the aisle with the bread and the pickled things (i know, what a strange combo for an aisle), i noticed an end cap featuring a sale on diet coke. and you know what it said?
12 packs, coke products, now just $4.50.
that was the discounted price. four and a half american dollars.
am i taking crazy pills? does that seem high for a discount to anyone else?
yeah, i didn’t buy any on principle alone. i won’t say this dismal economy hasn’t given me anything. it’s helping me quit diet coke one grocery run at a time. on the other hand, i sound really old complaining about this (when cigarettes are up to a dollar a pack, i’m QUITTING!)

Sadly, last night Diet Coke was not on sale. I paid $4.89 for a 12-pack. Certainly cheaper than the $10 I seem to spend in a day when I don't have any at home.
Plus, in addition to the ridiculous price of a 20oz ($1.59) or a Big Gulp ($1.29), having DC at home typically saves me about 300 calories a day. How, you ask? Because when I'm at the gas station purchasing my icy DC, I see the candy bars. I have no will power. I cannot say no.
