<div>We met almost all of the drink requests on the wiki page, minus Honest Ade that Costco did not have so variety is not an issue, the Mexicoke is proving to be quite popular. </div><div><br></div><div>I would have to echo Christie in not putting food in the fridge, some of the things inside of there haven't been eaten in awhile and were simply taking up space to be used for things that not only more people would be interested in but also things that help out the space financially. Someone mentioned that a few of the European hacker spaces sell drinks as a significant portion of their income. A certain amount of non-pay for drinks can be expected but last time it happened it was a serious discrepancy. As Christie mentioned, we calculated the best price for each drink that we bought and put them on the fridge along with a "please support the space" statement.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I hope that this second drink run will prove more fruitful than the first and I do hope that everyone enjoys the varied beverages that we acquired. We did make an effort to go for healthier things by avoiding things without high fructose corn syrup (besides the Coke/Sprite) and getting things like fruit juice. Over time we'll get a better idea what people actually want, the Pepsi went unloved last time for example and we didn't get any more. </div>
<div><br></div><div>You should all try the Mexicoke if you haven't already, give it a shot. Not only does it have pure cane sugar but its in bottles!</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Cheers,</div><div><br></div>

<p>So Ani and I made a big Costco run for drinks. We got a lot of great things to drink and the fridge is all full up for your hydration pleasure.</p>
<p>People need to stop putting food in the fridge. I respect people's frugality and willingness to share food, but more often than not it just sits there and gets gross. We really need the space for all these great dinks, anyway.</p>
<p>I would like to call attention to the fact that the till was short from the last restock - not by a little, but by a wide margin. If you think your payment is not being missed, you are mistaken.</p>
<p>We have come up with a new price list that reflects what we paid for the sodas. If you aren't paying that, then you're relying on your friends to buy for you. We're not some faceless corpotation. I'm personally embarrased that my friends are such cheapskates. </p>

<p>I refuse to put away childish things</p>
