Why in the name of Zeus's ########

Does one person need 25 cases of Clemson National Championship Coke bottles.
Other than to be a D**K and try to supplement their retirement plan by selling them on Ebay?
I am not sure about other parts of the state but around Cootlumbia that is what is happening. At multiple locations the managers or cashiers said one person bought the entire display.
I was lucky and got 1 (ONE, UNO) and was happy and done.
The main reason no one can find bottles are because of the peckerwoods buying all they can fit in their car and try to make a killing off of the Clemson fans/family.
Just buy one and maybe another for a family member or friend and be done with it. Let others enjoy having some
I'm going to probably get thumb downed for my rant but it just ticks me off the way some (not all) people are hoarding the new coke bottles and not letting others having a chance to enjoy the celebration.

A friend from college (Clemson) posted a picture on fb of a full display in their dining room. Considering they live in about a million dollar house it is incredibly tacky looking having a full cardboard coke display in their otherwise very nice dining room. Thankfully I found my six pack.

Nope gave you a thumbs up. Same thing is happening down here in the Charleston area. Friend of mine saw someone buy the last 20 cases from a convenience store in Walterboro of all places. My daughter just went back to Clemson yesterday hopefully she can find me a 6 pack.

Places around Clemson had a one 6 pack per person rule and sold out quickly. I got a few for family members but had to do a ton of driving just to get those.
I did hear from some of the managers of Bountyland that someone went to the Seneca store above Clemson with hand trucks and tried to buy their whole supply but they wouldn't sell them to him.

were going for over a grand. Supply and demand. I'll laugh though if Coke does like they did with the cans and do a second run because of demand.

Would not like to downgrade my natty display with that bottle. Prefer The national championship logo afixed to a full Orange Crush glass bottle. Just make silk screen and print it on. Custom amber Orange Crush would be the only fitting bottle.

That's the store's fault. I just bought two six packs from Bi-Lo where they were limiting two six-packs per person. There was one six pack left when I left so they didn't have any problem selling them all.

And people can buy however many coke cases they want!
Just another classic example of the liberal bullies trying to stomp on my rights.

I think you answered your own question. It sucks that people are so greedy, but that's the world we live in.
With any luck, karma will bite these folks and they'll be stuck with 24-1/2 cases of Coke bottles that they can't sell for more than 2-3 bucks apiece.
