My Holiday Luncheon Door Prize

Our annual holiday luncheon at work was held recently and there was a wide selection of beverages.


But the one I had my eye on was this Sprite sporting a new can design. It's a limited edition can celebrating 50 years of hip-hop.

I haven't drunk any soda for 5 years so how would I get this lovely beast without wasting the soda inside?  I asked my co-worker for hers when she was finished with it.  She knows about my collection and has offered a few cans herself.

The last can of 2023!  And now let's see how many cans I can collect in 2024!  Happy New Year!

Christmas Eve

Santa Claus came a little early this year,

A few weeks ago I was given this year's Coca-Cola holiday can.  I couldn't wait to put the Christmas tree up so the Santa on the can could relax in a familiar environment.

Another Can Rescue

A couple weeks ago I was at work and glanced in a trash can as I walked by.  What did I see?


Someone had thrown away this perfectly good Celsius Peach Vibe can!

Celsius is a sparkling energy drink and this particular flavor sounds really delicious.  But to avoid strange looks and many questions, I didn't ask around to see who drank it to ask for their review.

Instead, I rescued it from impending recycling and now it sits with the other cans in my collection.  It found a good home.

Fill'er Up

Running out of gas during those long video gaming sessions?  Mtn Dew has a solution.


Many Game Fuel cans have been featured on this blog in the past and this is another one.  This flavor is Citrus Cherry and features characters from HALO Infinite on the can.  My son saved it for me from one of his gaming sessions.

Come on, Playstation!  Where's your fuel?

Waterloo at Work

At work last week someone brought in a few flavors of Waterloo for people to drink.


There were two cans I didn't have yet, so I grabbed one of each.  Blackberry Lemonade was one of them.  The other will be featured in an upcoming post.

Waterloo is a brand of sparkling water that... let's just say there isn't much flavor.  One co-worker described it as a can of carbonated water that someone waved a blackberry over and declared it to be blackberry flavored.  While I heard many grumblings from people who tried the drink, it just meant there was more for me because I actually like it.

I'm still not sure why someone would bring all that water to work to just give it away.  But being such a flop at work I suspect it probably wasn't a big hit in their house, either.
