civilian casualties of the cola war
There's always a price difference between Coke and Pepsi. It's the way of the world, and I almost always buy Coke and fork out the extra few cents. it's my small donation to teach the world to sing, apparently.
The deli down the road from work has Coke for $2.40 (which is a rant in itself) and Pepsi for $1.65. Now as much as I like the red bottle and despise those tv ads with David Beckham's sissy 'pepsi!' tagline, I can't justify an extra 75cents. So today I bought a Pepsi Max, which seems to be the closest Pepsi can get to Coke without a very unsexy courtroom fight.
Urk. What's going on? I feel like I'm supporting some kind of evil dictator.

You are!!!!
I frequently pay $2.75 for the "black gold", paying $2.40 is like winning the lottery
