    SoBe

    I just tried a citrus SoBe. It's pretty good. What other flavors are good? I am going to need the extra energy now that it is the final 3 weeks of the semester...

    If you're trolling for a welfareloser, I think you're using the right bait!

    j/k about "trolling" - I know you're not really doing that.

    They charge what the market will bear. It's capitalism. If it was too much for their product, no one would buy it and they would lower the price. Soda is cheap because there is so much competition between nearly identical products. There isn't a drink out there that really competes with Sobe (not in the same league anyway) so they can charge whatever they want for it.

    The worst thing is the "quality" of the packaged "coffee" that most places supply. Concentrated bitterness is what you brewed.

    That was my version of parenthetical notation to give credit where it's due. Besides, I'm trying to pad my post count in a semi-legal way...

    Speaking of liquid crack, I just had one of the original Red Bulls from Thailand. A friend picked 'em up in Chinatown. They come in small glass bottles that look more like elixirs than a soda bottle. That stuff should come with a warning.

    I dig on the SoBe, especially the 'Energy' version... mmm.. and I don't drink coffee or tea so both those arguements are blown outta the water . Althought i remember when red bull came out and it was like 2.50 almost 3 dollars at some places... it was good.... not THAT good tho...

    Are all you guys talking about the 20 oz bottles of SoBe? I get them here at work for $1.50 which is a bit better. How much caffeine does that energy version have? I feel pretty wired right now haha.
    Is there a decaffeinated version? I noticed it has other stuff it in for energy too. But caffeine gives you an artificial high. Do they have one with st. john's wort? that stuff really works.

    sobe a-rush isn't just caffeinated soda - it really does have some fairly expensive ingredients. isolating and purifying amino acids isn't cheap, and it also has quite a few vitamins. and it DOESN'T have dangerous heart-attack-in-a-bottle stuff like epinephrine knock-offs - ephedrine, etc.

    i really do feel like it gives me a hell of a kick, and i've tried every other energy drink on the market and not gotten anywhere near the same result. and it tastes so good...

    And, if you go to big lots right now, you can pick up several flavors for 75 cents each
