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:

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.
