I actually prefer the store brand sodas. They cost half as much too.
Now, if you are complaining about store brand Pringles... It's not like the product had any integrity to begin with! Mmmm dehydrated potato paste.

That pussy name brand tho...
Dr. Perky is Food Lion's own-brand Dr Pepper knockoff. Knock-off cereal and soda names are the best. Prongles were real, but apparently more of a gag product co-packed by a board game company.
Right? "This bitch reeks of fiscal responsibility and informed procurement" is a wild take.
OP even paid for X premium pro+ or whatever
That's the reddest flag
I couldn't date someone that gives money to the richest piece of shit in the world just to have a blue icon nearby his username
Not all off-brands and discount stuff is good, but trying some and finding which one is, is the price for saving money. And besides, people can't act like a fucking Coca-Cola sommelier, coke pepsi discount or whatever, it's basically all the same.
Dr. Pepper is pretty different, though. Definitely leaves more room to fuck up than standard cola.
Dude, she got you two flavours of prongles and you're walking out on her?!
"Once you pop... THAT'S GREAT!"
Bet you can't eat any!
I have the song on my phone for some reason
Prongles "once you pop, that's great!"
Salt and potato is the best flavour
Original. Like the Creme and Onion ones.
I’ve been giggling like an idiot at this for 5 minutes now
I cannot claim any ownership over that. Enjoy
Thnx, I was part of the lucky 10000 and didn't know about this
I'd use prongles as a name for characters in games after I already had a character named prangles or prungles.
I mean... on the one hand, any brand of these kinds of foods are... not very healthy as snack foods.
There are alternative snack food that are in the same price per volume range, and... jfc stop drinking soda, its fucking bad for you to drink it regularly.
On the other hand...
Prongles and Dr. Perky are absolutely hilarious off brand names, would definitely try them at least once, purely for how incredible the names are.
Name brand in this economy!?
I like a frugal girl!
That’s marriage material if you ask me. Get that girl a (frugal) ring!
Quartz set in brass should do
I got some lock washers that are about ring sized in my hardware drawer thingy in the shed.
Be sure to polish a pea pebble and have it set in the split
@Track_Shovel@slrpnk.net this the girl you need to marry. She can manage a budget like a motherfucker.
Looks like a keeper to me.
At least that soda has an education. Pibb is some kind of dropout flavor.
Dude didnt even get his degree
