Some Pics Of My Stuff

[Dave]

Hi everyone,

I only found this board about a week ago, and I must say it is excellent. So many memories have come flooding back. I can't wait to see more.

Anyway, I thought I would share some pictures with you all of stuff that I have here. I collect Coke cans and bottles and have been doing so since 1985. I got so much stuff that I have now decided to just concentrate on UK cans and bottles only. Along the way I have also kept some older cans of other brands.

I know there has been talk on the board about an old soft drink called Quatro, and I have seen people mention TaB and Fresca. I have some of these cans and would like to share them with you all....if you are interested.

Re: Some Pics Of My Stuff

Thanks Sixtyten, here are some TaB Clear cans that I have as well.

And a special 2 pack of Sprite and Diet Sprite Trial Offer when it was first released in England back in 1989.

Got any of the Original Tab?

[Dave]

Re: Some Pics Of My Stuff

I don't have any of the original TaB from the UK although one of my mates who is also a Coke collector has one. I have a picture somewhere I will try and find it.

There is a South African grocery store near to where I live and they sell TaB in cans as it is still made in some African countries. It is also still available in Spain. I will try and post some more pics over the next couple of days.

I can still get it (and Mountain Dew) from my local Cybercandy branch, but it ain't cheap

That does not suprise me.But people will pay inflated prices.

Re: Some Pics Of My Stuff

I think the TaB is £1 a can, we also have an ethnic grocery store nearby that has soft drinks imported from Saudi Arabia. They sell Mountain Dew in cans for 69p and glass bottles for 79p.

Any Cresta? or Corona stuff?

Re: Some Pics Of My Stuff

No sorry, my mum used to drink gallons of Corona Coola Cola and Lemonade when we were growing up. She also used to drink loads of Top Deck Shandy. I remember the small Cresta bottles used to have a styrofoam label on them as we always used to peel the labels off.
