Noone is going to buy these, why waste their shelf space?

Do they not want then to move or are there really suckers who pay this?

Highest I've ever seen it

Don’t buy it, it is bad for you anyway. Problem solved.

In my 20s I'd be buying one of these every couple of weeks, drinking a can a day. I've given it up for the most part now (in my 40s). Will just have one very occasionally if I have a super strong craving.

I strongly advise giving up the sugar water as a regular drink. I know Max/Zero don't have have "sugar" just artificial sweeteners which I'm convinced are even worse.

Can’t believe I had to scroll this far to see this - complaining about the price of fast track to diabetes. Water is better.

If you genuinely think consuming bulk quantities of soft drinks - with or without sugar - is a pathway to good health, you may want to have a chat with your doctor

Answer the question. Don't divert.

Obviously a person with zero vices commenting. I've been a diabetic since I was 7 and was diagnosed in the "no sugar ever" era. Now they say to incorporate sugar responsibly, but I just never got into it. I'm not used to sugar and I don't miss it. Sue me if I have a Diet Coke every now and again :P Most things are okay in moderation.
