      Regular prices for my location in the US Midwest are around $11 for a 12-pack of Coca-Cola products — that’s twelve 12oz cans. Sales are frequently run for “buy 3 (12-packs), get 3 free”.

      You can get roughly the same per-can sale price by buying flats of 35 cans from warehouse clubs like Costco every day without waiting for a sale, but the warehouse clubs don’t carry every Coca-Cola product, usually just Coke, Coke Zero Sugar, Diet Coke, and Sprite.

      Pepsi products cost roughly the same.

        So that’d be $33 for 6 12-packs roughly $5,50 per pack or like 250% of the price in the image?

          In the states, $5.50 is considered a good sale now. I have seen single 12pks go for $12 not on sale.

        Yeah, for a very long time I refused to pay more than $3/12 pack. Now I consider it around $5-6.
