A Monster energy drink is $2.37. I've had about 6 so far this semester. So I've spent $15.00 on energy drinks that I drank solely for the caffeine boost. This might be a good deal. Can't decide....

If anyone in the Cincy area wants to split an order, hit me up via PM. otherwise, I don't wanna try it if I'm stuck with 69 more bottles of something I tried and didn't like.

Even if the stuff tastes like liquid ass I suppose it's worth it. LIke it states, it's a shot. So what's the buzz in this stuff anyway? Straight up Caffeine or like Guarana, Tuarine, and mexican bull nut extract or something?

Tempting. I rarely ingest anything that can be classified as an energy booster (no coffee, rarely eat snacks/candy, no soda, etc) so I imagine one bottle of these would provide me with quite a boost...

I've seen other posts about picking them up at a store, but after 2 hours and more than a dozen stores, no one has any of these. Tried CVS, Walgreens, Wal-Mart, Big Lots, Dollar stores, Freds, every gas station and 2 supermarkets. Dozens of other brands of energy drinks, but no one selling these. Could it be they are discontinued and simply selling off some old stock, or generating some quick cash before they close the doors?

I don't know, how much money you think they are "making" when selling them for basically the cost of shipping, which is literally what they claim........ Seems they would be better off auctioning them or selling them to like a East Coast Marketplace/Ocean State Job Lot or Building 19

Don't get me wrong, I ordered 3 cases, then 4 days later ordered 6 more cases.

However, after seeing these missing from store shelves that they list on their website as selling the product, the thought did cross my mind that these were old expired product that should have been tossed out. Reading posts at SD, they claim the expiration date of Feb 2009 should have been printed as Feb 2010, which is why they are giving it away. I don't know anyone in retail or bar ownership that would buy a product to resell with an expired date. That does limit what they can do.

Or worse, if they are closing up shop, then just like some other Hot Deals, they deliver a few to get the excitement going, as well as reorders, then withdraw all PayPal funds and leave 1000's of orders unfullfilled. (cyberwings if I remember the name correctly, was one that got me in the past). The ordering method was a little strange.

Another strange thing to me is a different product they sell, Red Devil, can be bought "retail" at Big Lots for less than 60 cents a can......

SD thread about Red Devil for 60 cents

It is probaby all legit and I can't wait until my orders arrive.
But in the meantime, where can you find a store that sells these so that I can get a sample of what to expect?

Hmmm. That is odd. And I'm kind of just the opposite with the taste thing. I could care less. How's the buzz? Is it like a nice strong cup of coffee?

I drink too many energy drinks (4-6 servings of Red Bull a day), and am trying to cut back, so I can't speak much for the buzz; I could drink a large can of Red Bull right before bed and then fall right asleep. Downing 3 of these while tasting all 3 flavors didn't do much for me, aside from upset my stomach a little. These things have a *lot* of sugar in them.

If you're looking for an energy boost, the best kick I've gotten recently was from HiBall's from Whole Foods. Avoid the "Original" flavor.

Not really when compared to non-energy drinks.

About the same amount of sugar found in 1/2 a can of Coke.

Quite a bit when you consider that it's only 4oz. For comparison, just looking at the cans within arms reach at my desk:

Amp Energy Shot: 4.5g sugar per ounce
Amp Energy Drink (original flavor): 3.625g sugar per ounce
Red Bull: 3.25g sugar per ounce
Bawls: 3.2g sugar per ounce
Nos: 3.36g sugar per ounce
HiBall: 0g sugar per ounce
Sobe Adrenaline Rush: 4.125g sugar per ounce
Coke, according to a label I found via gis: 4.625g sugar per ounce
Headshot: 5.25g sugar per ounce
