 I store cans around the house. I keep a "stash'. I have had dreams that someone found my last emergancy can. I rarely drink coffee. I tryed to switch to Pepsi because it is on sale more often, but it goes flat too quick. If I get down to below 4, it's a mad rush to the store! At least it is not beer. I do try to taper off about 3 o'clock in the afternoon. I drink about 5 a day. What is your favorite drink?

Pepsi?! Blasphemy! I ? Diet Coke . . . there is nothing else that compares to it!
Netty B. Jan 14, 2009, 1:55pm EST
OMGosh Diane! You got it BAD girl! LOL
I WAS a "coffeeholic" but since the first of the year I have been limititng myself to 2 cups a day, then switch to water, then maybe hot tea in the late afternoon or early evening and more water.
So I guess my Fav drink is water...LOL
Netty B. Jan 14, 2009, 1:56pm EST
I ONLY have to occasional Coke now.
To me Diet pop and decaf coffee have no place in the world.
Vic Needs Coffee Jan 14, 2009, 2:01pm EST
Coffee.
juley g. Jan 14, 2009, 2:09pm EST
I have been drinking water like crazy lately! I am really trying hard to stay away from any sweet drinks...diet or regular. :)

I like the little flavoring packets that you add to water. Raspberry is the best and since I never drink plain water I imagine it is better than NO water at all.
Cindy R. Jan 14, 2009, 2:25pm EST
Diane, sweetie, you need help. Perhaps you should attend a Cokeaholics group? :) You know, maybe just until the Coke nightmares go away... ?
DIANE D. Jan 14, 2009, 2:28pm EST
I have one in the afternoon to get rid of a headache.
Monica H. Jan 14, 2009, 2:28pm EST
I am addicted to my coffee with Hazelnut creamer. I do sneak in a few glasses of water daily and some milk too.
DIANE D. Jan 14, 2009, 2:29pm EST
True, I really do dream that I don't have one to wake up to, about 2 times a week.
La Lady Lisa Westerfield Jan 14, 2009, 2:29pm EST
Diane, have you thought about switching to Coke Zero, it tastes much better than Diet Coke.

When I was in London ,I was hooked on Diet Pepsi and much to my dismay London is a Coke town. I kid you not, I was walking all over London, alone mind you, at 3:00 AM (their time, not mine) trying to find a damn Pepsi machine. I think I was finally had to settle for Diet Coke after an hour of endless wandering.

Yes, I was young.
I have no pride. I drink generic store brand diet cola. It's like liquor. After the first couple of sips you get totally desensitized.
Janet Somewhere Up On The Mount Jan 14, 2009, 2:47pm EST
I drink coffee all day. Not a soda drinker.
ashley a. Jan 14, 2009, 3:08pm EST
mainly water and ice tea but i do buy soda if its on sale i dont care if its coke or pepsi though i prefer pepsi:)
Debby C. Jan 14, 2009, 3:52pm EST
Water.....you gotta get off that stuff...it is soooooo bad for you!
Nancy L. Jan 14, 2009, 5:09pm EST
Water and green tea. I agree that Coke Zero tastes much better than Diet Coke- still no calories, but not that yucky after taste.
tina t. Jan 14, 2009, 5:13pm EST
I drink Dr Pepper. I have to have one stashed or kids will get them.
Janie E. Jan 14, 2009, 5:45pm EST
I love Diet Coke, too, but I only drink one with supper!
Kjersti W. Jan 14, 2009, 6:33pm EST
Diet Coke is pretty much the only thing I drink. I probably go through 3 to 4 cans a day. I do not have any problem with getting them on sale, as the Diet Coke in the 24 packs or some deal on the 12 packs is always cheaper than Pepsi where I live. I think Pepsi tastes fine, but it tastes horrible when it starts to get warm and definitely gets flatter way faster even in resealable bottles. Funny enough, though, my emergency stash is a bunch of Diet Pepsi 20 ounce bottles that I got for free from the stuff leftover at my mom's holiday work party she hosted and got to keep the leftover stuff from.
Elaine S. Jan 14, 2009, 6:47pm EST
coffee
Lisa B. Jan 14, 2009, 7:52pm EST
I am the same way with coke. Its my fav. I totally need it in the morning, especially now that I stopped smoking.
Larry H. Jan 14, 2009, 8:56pm EST
I like Dr Pepper don't drink it often though. My great grandmother had to have a Dr, Pepper, chew of tabacco and a shot of whisky to start her day.
chelsie t. Jan 14, 2009, 10:57pm EST
pepsi or mt dew
Nanci M. Jan 15, 2009, 12:26am EST
I'm not much of a soda drinker. Every onece in a while I will have a Ginger Ale. I mostly drink water, apple juice, and green tea with the occassion cup of McDonald's coffee. Thier coffee is the BEST!

Debra H. Jan 15, 2009, 1:49am EST

Krystal Harwell Jan 15, 2009, 2:42am EST

Coffee for the caffeine, Tea for the caffeine, and water for the hydration.

I also used to get rid of a headache by drinking Dr Pepper.

I drink soda and ice tea. It's catching up with me and I've had to switch to diet soda and shouldn't be drinking it at all. Here's 10 towards your next cash-out.
Lin B. Jan 15, 2009, 10:36am EST

Karen R. Jan 17, 2009, 12:30am EST
I like Diet Dr pepper and Diet Code Red Mtn Dew. I have one can of each when I am at work. I don't think I am addicted. I may or may not have one can of pop on my days off. I do like my ice tea, too.
Courtney C. Jan 17, 2009, 12:46pm EST
Sounds like my grandmother and her Diet Coke. I can't start my day without a glass of OJ, but that's about it.
Dove D. Jan 17, 2009, 8:34pm EST
