Jones Soda

Anyone else drink the many flavors of the rainbow known as Jones Soda? 90% of the time, I'll drink Blue Bubble Gum, and it rocks, but I've noticed this. Jones Soda is typically $1-2 cheaper than Coke or Pepsi, so I'll buy that when I'm on my own and such.
I don't necessarily want to try the Thanksgiving ones, though. It had like "Turkey and Gravy" as drinks. Bugh.

I dig Jones Soda.
But I don't know what you're talking about as far as price is concerned. $1 or $2 cheaper in what quantity...and where?

12 oz cans are generally about the same price (when bought in 12 packs), so I dunno what you're talking about cheaper :-P
That, and Jones is not very tasty in cans, and the REALLY good flavors (fufuberry and cherry) aren't even offered in cans...and they're not exactly cheap in bottles (4 12 oz bottles for about 3.75 is the best I've seen)

Jones Soda is awesome, and I really like the pictures. I almost thought about submitting a picture once.

Left that little detail out, didn't I?
At Target stores, Pepsi or Coke products are (2) 12 Packs for $7.
At Target, Jones is (3) 12 Packs for $8.
Thus, you can have another 12-pack from $1 more, about $2.50 less than the average 12-pack of Coke.
However, they have only a few flavors, but they are good. From what I saw (several flavors were sold out though, so there could be more) the flavors were:
-Black Cherry (Sugar Free), really good stuff.
-Green Apple, haven't tried
-Berry Lemonade, really good as well.
There were more, I'm just not remembering.

There's cream soda, and I saw a flavor called FuFu Berry? Or I dunno, something with FuFu in it. Kinda caught my attention. Haven't tried it, but I'm very intrigued to try it.

Fufu berry is the nectar of the gods.
I'm not entirely sure what a fufu is, but it's juices are
orgasmic.

i've tried every jones. i like them all so i go in order everytime i buy one. and for some reason everybody here collects the bottles. my band room has exactly 143. my church, in the arcade, has tons too. they sell a crap load in the cafe. but what i cant understand is, why do people collect the bottles?

the labels are made by voting on the site or submitting pictures...thus making 'limited edition' bottles...you can also get a bottle w/ whatever pic you want on it at a premium price

I collect the bottles...and I have no idea why. You can't get money for recycling in Indiana, so I guess it's for the pictures.

Target does it the other way around too, sometimes its pepsi products 3 for 8 and Jones products 2 for 7, it just depends on when you go.
I still stand firm in my belief that Jones is hardly drinkable in can form.
