I was in Wal Mart on Monday and there was not a single can or bottle of diet Coke. My neighbor said Costco has been out for a couple of weeks. 2 weeks ago I noticed Kroger had no 12 or 24 packs of Coke Zero. First it was TP now diet Coke. I drove by a Big Tex trailer lot near house today and almost no trailers on lot.

We heard something about this in Costco the other day where there were no cans of Diet Coke either. It has to do with the Aluminum for the cans being in shortage. Had to go with the 12 oz plastic bottles. I don't drink it but my wife does.

We scored on 4 large Lysol Spray cans the other day at the wallmarks. They must have just opened the case and ran. We felt like criminals. I was zigging and zagging in and out of traffic. We unloaded fast into the garage and slammed the door before anyone saw us.

When stockpiling drinks like Diet Coke. Pay attention to the expiration date. They will deteriorate.

I once worked with a dude that was never without an open can of diet Dr Pepper. He drank 8 per day. Our company subsidized the drink machine so they were only .$25. He would even finish off one that was sitting all night on his desk. Back when you could smoke in the office my boss dropped a half smoked Marlboro in his can. I tried to stop him when he picked it up the next morning. I wish I had a pic of his face when he took a drink.
