    Red Bull wings clipped?

    I cant buy my Red Bull in 330ml bottles anymore...well I havent looked real hard, but the normal places I go (servos, super-marché) only seem to have 250ml bottles and cans. Whats the deal? Is it the evil-doings of the cafeinne nazi's?

    250ml is not enough.

    I know man!!! but if you buy a can or bottle they are both the same size, but they reccomend only 1 bottle per day or 2 cans. it is quite strange really. I also admit im a caffine addict.

    Red Bull girls... they'd be the ones to know.... not much but they're at least nice eye candy! Try 021 425108...

    Buy the concentrated stuff in the little bottles from asian supermarkets. I don't think it has too much english on the bottle, but you'll recognise the symbol. Knock a couple of these back and you'll be off.......

    I read a piece of paper the other day, and i believe it said they were taking them out of circulation. Not sure why, possibly it was cheaper to make them one volume only.

    Shit loads cheaper as well. Only $1 a bottle. Although its not fizzy but good for mixing drinks
    You know you had a good nite when you have to ask someone if you had a good nite.

    Put some Vodka in it to make it up to 330ml. All good.
