Because it was 'designed' by a couple of Youtubers and that is the world we live in now, sadly. |  |

I saw a video of a bloke in this 70's ripping a bottle from the hands of a child. All seems very bizarre. | |

£1.99 a bottle...we're in the wrong game. | |

Yeah it's madness.
Almost as mad as me paying £25 for two bottles last week. |  |

Is it like Willy Wonka with golden tickets placed inside the can?
If not, then they are f**ckin idiots.
Hope you had a good Christmas [Post edited 29 Dec 2022 13:13]

Staged viral marketing would be my guess! |  | | |

It's been lost on me, but I was just behind a young lad in the Spar and he asked for one and paid £9.99 I said to the lady next to me what is that all about, she said they are grim but some social media fad. |  |

I see Ed Sheeran is queueing like a regular guy, there.
Meanwhile Philip Schofield and Holly Willoughby were let in for a private sale last night. | | | |

I wasn't aware of this until reading this thread.
Just had a look and the drinks contain coconut water and other bits that can be obtained almost anywhere at almost any time.
I sometimes think I must be one of the few people left who still uses YouTube for music. |  |

Supply and demand Glassers.
Would have thought a good capitalist like you would recognise the free market in all it's glory. :-) |  |

Every day I am nagged more and more by the thought that a life of hermitry is the only real way to survive the nonsense that is modern life. The outrage machine is unrelenting and wants us all at each other's throats over trivial nonsense. Balls to it all, 2023 may be the year that I begin work on my underground love bunker/panic room. | |

I'm already sizing up the bath and pulling measuring jugs out from the cupboards as we speak. | |

I got excited but then I saw there was more to your plan than measuring jugs. | |

Made me laugh a couple of months ago when I watched the news on TV and they had story about this drink and people paying £10 a bottle for what's basically flavoured water.
But that laughter turned to sadness.
A lot of people laugh at my (old) generation and how we didn't have the awareness the Internet provides now to make it easier for people to make judgements. But many people are brainwashed just as much now as in my younger days, the Internet has actually made that easier, really sad.
I also find it mad that withball this financial crisis people keep telling us people are suffering with, those people are still happy to pay £1.99 for a bottle of flavoured water - what financial crisis? |  | | |

I look back at my time in Nigeria as quite a good guide to a free market with little/no constraints.
So when there were fuel shortages in the UK, the Brits just queued and the odd petrol station got stick for extortionate/opportunistic pricing. When there were shortages in Lagos, area boys would queue up with canisters and then walk along the line of queuing motorists offering for sale petrol at double the price in the station.
Which was all good, but the really entrepreneurial ones would water it down so you were paying double for petrol/water.
On the upside, when sitting in the traffic jam waiting for petrol on a hot day, quite quickly someone would be trying to sell you a cold drink, reasonable mark up on the supermarket and very welcome too.
Public transport was also largely unregulated so buses would add to their usual fares when fuel was scarce.
All good fun. | |

I had to pay over £10 for 4 litres of screen wash on the bloody M6 last week - I'm still recovering from that. | |

Do you think him and Buster Bloodvessel arranged to go together or it's just a coincidence he's queuing up behind him? |  | | |

Plenty of countries have very large industries producing bottled water with a few bubbles in it, for a small fortune.
And wtf is coke other than coloured carbonated water with some sugar? Yet the world over we buy into the brand.
Marketing bollox is very much a global phenomena when you look into it. | |

I've got a couple of cans of Red Thunder left from a six pack i bought a few months ago. Is that the stuff that's causing all this stupidity? | | | |
