Does a can of Coke still set you back 25 - 30 pence?
I've always wondered because when I left Yorkshire for London, I was suprised how expensive London is. 50 pence for a Coke.

Thanks

Oh man! The good ol' days of cheap Coke has gone.
Does anyone remember those rediculously low priced Coke cans for 30 pence. It was the normal size too!

I almost expected you to say something funny/silly/sarcastic (delete where appropriate) like nearly all of your posts!

buy them in multipacks or from discount stores like B&M or Home Bargains. I don't drink it myself, but my friend buys it for her kids and she seems to save a wodge not buying them in the regular stores.

unless you work at nacanco in wakefield, then it's free.
(they make coke cans for the coke cannery next door)
which is probably fair as that's almost exactly the cost of production anyhow.

it's around 50p a can around here. I never pay that of course, get down to farmfoods - 5 for £1 or cash and carries sell em for 18.5p each in a case of 24.

otherwise BOGOF at supermarkets.

Hi there I am in Derbyshire and we are like Little Yorkshire, we have hills and are just as illiterate and vocally incomprehensible. And I think I just paid 40p.

j00ni · 8 Jun 2006 at 15:43

There are still a good few places where you can get cans for 25-30p if you know where to look
