PF> PF> The rest of California is usually 2 bucks cheaper. In 2023, I followed US 66 all the way across California to Santa Monica. It was $6 just off I-40 in Needles when I visited, so I did not buy any there. While it was cheaper in other places, it was not $2 cheaper in most places I visited. I did find a Walmart somewhere between Barstow and San Bernardino where it was just over $4, but that was the cheapest I found. Most places were very near or over $5, which was around $1.75-$2 more expensive than it was in my part of Kentucky at the time. I have never visited Big Sur and have no MAGA agenda.

Don't know what's going on, but I'd look at my PF> local grocery stores, and they'd have lots of Coke, Cherry coke, PF> Vanilla Coke, caffeine free coke, and an empty space where all of the PF> Diet Coke used to be. It may ultimately cause me to stop buying certain brands. Local favorites Ale-8 and Ski are not sold in 2-litres here. --- * ScorpioWeb * Project Scorpio TEST ----------------------------------------------------------- [Voltar]
