One of my duties at work is to take care of the soda
machine. Coke sells us the 20oz bottles for $0.74
each. Of course, the soda machine will only take the
20oz bottles (not the 16, or other common sizes).
This is by design, because Coke does not sell the 20oz
bottles to supermarkets, but to places that either
sell them cold from the fridge or a soda machine...
Coke makes the extra profit, not the quick-E-mart.
