when i was a teen
we used to go to THE POP SHOPPE
and the whole store was row after row of sodas

all sorts, all flavors, all brands

they gave u this CUP HOLDER type of cartoon
and u took individual bottles off the shelf and stuck them in the holes
and when they rung u up
they just counted up the sodas

i havent seen one in years

do they still exist??

I remember those. There was one inside a local mini-mart when I was a kid, and I loved it. I haven't seen one in about 20 years, though.

i used to LOVVVVVV to go
id whine and pitch a fit until they let me get extra sodas
id always pick out weird flavors

never heard of it, but it sounds really awesome.
