Sobe Lifewater

So I've started drinking all the various flavor Sobe waters and really enjoy them and I want to 100% kick my pop (Mtn Dew and A&W mainly) habbits. Target seems to have the best deal i have ever seen on water in general with buy 10 for $1 each and every now and then they offer a $5 gift card with the purchase of 10, so it's $0.50 each which for anything bottled is wacky cheap. When they don't have that deal price for the 20 ox bottle varies from place to place; ranging from $1.50 to $2.50 for the same 20oz bottle.

Question of the day is, has anyone seen other areas to buy Sobe in bulk. Anyone have any other good water drinks they would suggest that are similar?

I like the Vitamin waters...regular or 10 cal varieties as well as the propel flavored waters, I haven't tried lifewater yet but will probably give it a shot.

Have you checked to see if Sams Club or Costco carries it and if so what their price is like?

Fuzes have a slenderize brand that is low in the sugar area. I use to drink those alot when doing to soda.

There alot of things out there that are 'not' soda... but when you read the label they are just as bad for you. Try to find things with low calories and low sugar :)

Are those beverages really any better than soda or diet soda? The more I'm reading, the more I'm thinking artificial sweeteners and sweetening ploys like "sugar alcohols" should be kept in check as well.

Some of them at least provide some amount of vitamine or nutritional value, and are generally less acidic which is a plus. Many are just as bad in terms of sugar content though, all depends on which one you're looking at.

The '10 calorie' VItamin waters are 25 cals for a whole bottle which is far better than a can of soda, and they taste far better than a diet soda IMO.

James, yes, alot of artificial sweeteners have been proven to be bad for you :p

Water is what you should be drinking. But when trying to kick a soda addiction, whatever you drink needs to be sweet some how to be more appetizing :) It is easy to go to water then from there if you want to make that jump.

The reason I like the Sobe brand is the mix of flavors, 0 calories, naturally sweetened, 0 sugar, and they actually contain shit fairly good for you; anitoxidents in some of them.

The one I have right now is yumberry pomegranate and i was shocked on how good it tastes. This one also has some herbal content such as Ginger and Dandelion wish is weird.

Lifewater are good :) They do have lots of other stuff in them. Dandelion can be found in a lot of salad mixes to :) They are also good for you :)

Costco doesn't carry the SoBe stuff, but they do carry VitaminWater.

Personally, when I decided to kick soda, I started drinking flavored but unsweetened sparkling water. Target and Rainbow store brands were not bad, especially the lime flavors.

For me though, it was the fizzy beverage, not the sweet that I craved, so I don't know if this will help much.

I've tried most of those flavored waters, but I really haven't been able to get into the sugarfree ones... but then, I already know I'm sensitive to the flavor of a lot of artificial sweeteners like aspartame.

the Zero Cal Lifewaters aren't too bad, i usually go for the Black & Blueberry or the Fuji Apple Pear. Also the standard Sobe Lean items aren't too bad, the Green Tea and Cranberry/Grapefruit in particular.
