Many stores will special-order things for you if you ask... :D

Yea. I think im gonna look into this. I look on gatorades website and propel water was 1.39 a bottle. I paid 1.49 from a gas station for a bottle over the weekend, so I bet I could find the propel cheaper at a grocery store or with a coupon. I'll have to look into it. The other plan is to just walk into a gas station and then ask who they get their drinks from and see if I can place an order directly through the distributor.

The makers of Aquafina which I believe is Coca-Cola has FlavorSplash. I'm drinking a berry flavored one right now. I'm not sure what other flavors exist but it's 20 ounces and I bought one at Kmart. It's got a very light flavor taste and 0 calories. I love these kind of drinks.

For liability and tax reasons, unless you have a permit, most manufacturers and distributors will not sell directly to a consumer. Most retailers will, however, place a special order on your behalf. You can usually work in a small price break from the normal retail markup if you ask nicely.

Good luck! :thumbsup::)

Dasani makes something similiar as well. They have a rasberry and a lemon flavor. Subtle flavor, not to harsh.

There's something in the water. Flavor! Flavorsplash from Aquafina.

God I hate those commercials.

Theres a mountain spring near me that has water that tastes like dirt. Maybe you can find one that has peach flavored water. Of all the flavors to get stuck with... I got dirt :(
