No Tricks, All Treat

Today is one of the best holidays of the year... Halloween.  And what does that mean for can collectors?  Dr Pepper/Seven Up has released their annual Halloween-themed cans.  I was a bit lazy this year and only collected two of them.


In years past the themed cans included 7Up, A&W, Sunkist, Sundrop, Canada Dry, and Welch's.  But, as seen in the picture above, I only got 7Up and A&W.


Enjoy the spookiness!

A Squirt of Fall

A few people in my family have birthdays in October, so several years ago we decided to have a fall bonfire and weenie roast to celebrate all those birthdays at once.  And last night was our annual Fall Weenie Roast.

One of my takeaways from the party was this Squirt Zero Sugar can.  One of my kids had never had Squirt before and asked if it was good.  My mom said it's one of the few sodas that really quenches her thirst.  Later, upon closer examination of the can, I noticed it even says that right on the can, "Thirst Quencher."

And coming next week... Halloween!

More Fruit

 A couple of new cans this week that belong in the fruit family.

Here we have a wild cherry flavored Pepsi with zero sugar.

There's also a strawberry banana V8 V-fusion can.

Ok, that's one of the five basic food groups.  Are there cans for the other four food groups?

The Little Things

There's nothing special about these recent additions to my can collection other than they're all small 7.5 oz cans.

Cherry - Regular - Diet - Zero

Don't worry, next week's post will make up for this week's short post... as soon as I figure out what it's going to be about.

Big Bear, Little Bear

Looking through cans I've recently acquired, I was trying to find cans that shared a common theme.  It was unexpected, but I realized two cans had bears on them.

The first can is Golden Bear lemonade which is actually an AriZona tea can.  It's a strawberry flavored lemonade that sounds delicious!!

The second can is a Polar seltzer water can that's lime flavored.

And the big coincidence with these two cans is just last night I drank a strawberry-lime drink.  All the connections with these two cans are nearly unBEARable.
