Anyone else have Zayres growing up?

 

Was it a New England business?

 

Yes, based in Massachusetts. We had them in western Pennsylvania. Basically a regional K-Mart knockoff.

Nor I, but I saw it at 7-Eleven and bought a can. I'll report back on it when I get a chance.

 

Salt Life files for bankruptcy. Middle-aged men across the South and Midwest rush to stock up on stickers for their vehicles.

 

There were numerous stores in Chicagoland. Shoppers World was a similar store.

 

Thanks for the heads up. Got some shopping to do.

Never had it, but it annoyed me because the label looked exactly like Cherry Coke, which I love and is awesome.
I've accidentally pulled a Diet Mountain Dew instead of regular plenty of times and didn't realize it until I tasted it. No idea how I never got a Spiced instead of Cherry Coke because I wasn't paying attention.

 

I tried the Spiced and it was actually pretty good! Not really spicy at all, and the raspberry flavor hits the spot.

I sure am anxious ... but not economically.

Capitalism baby! Long may we suckle at its teat.

 

I hope all the dockworkers voting against a contract because of potential automation are driving hand built cars, buy all their meat from a local butcher, and have pretty much not a single electronic device.
