minus-square@NotMyOldRedditNamelink29•11 months agoAbout a year ago I was at a grocery store and bought one of those 473ml bottles of pop at the till. It rang up on the till as $2.99 I told them to remove that, it’s ridiculous, went to the pop section, and got the exact same 2L pop on sale for $1
minus-squaresquibletlinkfedilink20•11 months agoOh yeah, small bottles in convenience sizes are absurd. Same for water. You can buy 1/2 a quart for $2.00 or an entire gallon for $1.50.

minus-squaresquibletlinkfedilink5•11 months agoWell, technically you do pay for tap water, but sure, it’s like 2 cents. I use bottled water when I’m camping or otherwise away from my faucet.
minus-square@ChickenLadyLovesLifelinkEnglish2•11 months agoI pay something like $5 per 10,000 gallons, so for me a bottle of water definitely rounds down to $0.00.

Those mini-cans of soda are more expensive too. So nuts.
