Prices go up up up Never come back down down down
The invisible hand job economy
when they do go down economist scream that its the worst thing to ever happen (deflation)
I mean it sucks and I drink coke (it's my mix for booze) but it's a welcome change (price increase). Soda pop should not be drunk as frequently as it is by people and anything to make it less common is a welcome change IMHO. If becoming more cost prohibitive to people makes them drink it less that's not a bad thing
Now the challenge becomes, because America is becoming a 3rd world shithole it's possible that coke is the only safe drink because thanks to the EPA being gutted over decades water isn't safe in many areas due to contamination. That's not cool.
You know that has a lot of sugar, which is a poison and will kill you right?
Everything will kill you in excess. Live life and don't be a Debbie Downer.
Hey friend, I'm not the one complaining about the water or people drinking too much.
It's friday and I'm going to have plenty of drinks, there will be no soda in sight.
I wish you a good weekend.

I wish you a good weekend too
with or without sodas
Not only do they cost more, the greater surface area means your cold drink warms up faster.
Neat.
Greater surface area also means more material for the same product, which leads to less effective transport, more waste and increased polution. Non-standarized can size means every can storage system and cup holder which have taken can size into consideration will be worse. I'm sure a lot of vending machines will have to be modified or scrapped for this can design.
Everyone are worse off because of this, and it's all for attempting to trick consumers and increase profits. Shit sucks.
Is this a new thing in the US? We've had these in Europe for years - and I mean 10-15 at least.
Hey we get this revolutionary super can which is supposed to keep your beer cool.
The ribs are supposed to reduce the contact area of warm fingers.
It doesn't work obviously since they aren't big enough and skin on fingers are flexible enough to touch everything.
You only pay 30 to 50% more for this nonsense.
Everyone tries to avoid them but somehow the normal cans are more than often 'sold out' in stores.
That's what you get for drinking jupiler

Hey Stella snob, it's not like you always have a choice.
Also it's standard thirst or get drunk gulping beer, not a fancy trippel or geuze.
Doesn't really matter that much.
Dickflation.
Where is the one on the left no longer available? I live in the US and see those all the time.
Just straight up stop buying shit. Drink filtered tap, and live off only what you need and shrug off ppl that think buying expensive shit will make them cool.
A lot of the world can’t just drink tap water with a basic filter
How do I fit my coke addiction in your filtered water?
People with vending machines aren't going to be happy, those new ones won't fit.
As a consumer you should have thought about the consequences of your habits. Because of you they now have to replace all the vendig machines.
Its the consumers fault. Companies have absolutely no responsibility.
Huge /S if there ever was any doubt.
