Help a Canadian brother out!

[Caswell239]

Hey everyone. It's almost that time of the year for buying your loves ones gifts. My loved one is a Harry potter fanatic...(don't ask, I don't understand it my self) and has instructed me to do what I need to, to get her this mug. ... Wait what? A mug" you ask. Yes there's a coffee mug that transforms from black to beige to reveal a hidden message... Personally I couldn't care less but if it's what my 23yr old wife wants, I'll find a way to get it. Now your probably wondering why I'm still talking about this mug, haha, me too. Well the only place to buy it is the wbshop.com which does not ship to Canada.
So this is where one of you good people can help me! If I can ship this mug to your house (us adress) then when it arrives you ship it usps to me up here in the cold. And obviously I would pay for the mugs shipping to me. If you want to help make sure my wife gets this mug she's been harassing me for two years for, please respond! Lol

Depending on where you live, you could setup a PO box in the nearest US city or town. We have one

If this is a way to get me to ship coke to you, then no way, maybe, well how much?

Way just kidding. I'm glad someone responded quickly. Give us an update. I had a similar idea. I was thinking of getting one of you guys from the north to ship me a case of CocaCola made in Canada. Why? It has sugar in it, I think anyway. Coke in the US doesn't, it has high fructose corn syrup because it's cheaper. But other places around the world, including Mexico, have good old fashioned sugar.

So I've bought Mexican Coke here, that sounds all wrong. Anyway, you can find it sometimes, in the old fashioned glass bottles with a white sticker on it stating country or origin and ingredients or something. Was thinking one day, not now, getting some Canadian Coke shipped down.

But good luck. Repost if the one guy can't get it done for you.

If you want Mexican Coke, it is carried everywhere here in Phoenix. We even sell at the convenience stores on the University campus where I work.

I live 2 hours from the border with Canada and bring back 2 cases every 4-5 months and savor the flavor year round!

Fructose is sugar

Yeah, we have a good size Hispanic population in Birmingham. As such there are a decent amount of products made in Mexico available. I can get that coke.

Lucky.


See, what it is, my brother used to work for Coke, he's a chemist. So I gave him some Mexican Coke one year for Christmas. He was surprised I was able to get it. This year I got him socks, nice ones. But I thought in the future I might import him Coke from different countries just for the fun of it.

I tell you what, make some good headlines if they bust me coming across the border for 6 cases of Dominican Coke one year.

I used to use my brother's '00 Camaro to make Milo's Sweet Tea and Guthrie's Chicken Fingers runs down to Florida. All Smokey and the Bandit style. I'd load up 10 or more gallons of the tea here and head south, stop in Dothan, AL, halfway, to pick up the chicken fingers and make it to Orlando 4 hours later. You couldn't get either down there. And if I didn't have it, the guys I was supposed to take it to would get pissed.

I did not know that about American Coca Cola. Me and the she were in L.A to see Black Sabbath in Sept. and had some Coke . Tasted the same to me but I can't tell the difference between Coke and Pepsi either.

I did consume a lot of Coors while we were there. It's hard to find here and 15 bucks for a 6 pack when you do see it.

I know they have special editions around here with real sugar. Sprite as well.

I don't really think most people would be able to tell the difference. It's really just a novelty type thing to me.

My brother probably can. I don't know about that particular situation. What does bug him is any soft drink that is more than 30 days old. He won't drink it because it tastes gross to him. He picked that up after working at Coke. Specifically he worked on diet drinks and Coke Zero and what not. Oh, and believe it or not I think they did that Dr. Pepper 10 at Coke in Atlanta. One of the low or no calorie Dr. Pepper products was developed there in partnership.

I digress

The sugar coke doesn't have as harsh a taste as the high fructose corn syrup. You can definitely tell the difference if you are used to drinking a lot of Coke.

When I went to Canada a few years back, I grabbed a Coke on a road trip, and had to look at the label because it tasted different. That's when I noticed that they use real sugar. It's also slightly less calories as well.
