No, I don't buy the 12 can pack for $2.50 - that would mean I would have it around and drink it all and just think of all that sugar! No, I buy the 1 liter bottles (one at a time) for $1.00-1.69 every week. One bottle. Spread out over a week. Suck out the extra air before replacing the lid keeps it nice and bubbly the next day (and the next!) I think it's the carbonation I crave...
Routine: Empty bottle over a few days, decide to never do that again (sugar-wise), go to store for weekly shopping spree (sometimes I even use a push-cart instead of hand-held basket!), and leave with another bottle. Repeat...weekly. How sad is that? Something reserved for only special occasions, like upset stomachs and flights - always the drink of choice on an airplane...like it's tradition or something) is now being used and abused on a regular basis as if it was a basic Coke or normal Sprite. I don't even know what's in the stuff. I should just buy a 12-pack. Or I should just have willpower. This is not helping me get back into shape!
And don't get me started about Raspberry Ginger Ale!!!!! It's like liquid crack!
At least it's not a nightly glass of wine or a shot of tequila, right?

I LOOOOOOOVE Ginger Ale! Like A LOT! I don't have it that often so that I can still LOOOOOOVE it. But...it is on sale this week. Hadn't thought of that, thanks a lot!
Must be something in the air! I've been doing the same thing with Fresca! I bought one this past Saturday. Was that possibly the same time you were stocking up on Ginger Ale?
