Der Geizhalz
I am one cheap motherfucker. I mean it.
I'll buy the generic shit without thinking twice, and will save my money for the really nice shit - automobiles and video games. Everything else is perishable and therefore quickly replaced - shampoo, toothpaste, underwear and food.
In this case, diet soda.
It turns out the Commissary is having a sale on Sierra Mist Free - an imitation Diet 7-Up or Sprite if you will. I've tried all 3 and can't tell the difference personally.
What I do know is that this shit is on sale for 39 cents a 2 liter. YES. THAT FUCKING CHEAP. Considering a 12 ounce can of soda costs 37 cents, this is a fucking steal!
So what did I do?
I bought 20 cases of the shit! Six bottles come to a case, so if you do the math, that's 120 bottles of pop. Four fucking months worth! A little over $48. That's pretty fucking cheap!
The Germans have a word for cheap fucking bastards like myself - Der Geizhalz. It's the first word I learned over here, thanks to Sabine. I swear, if she wasn't married I'd nail her 9 ways from Sunday. Eh whatever.
Now I can have those all-nighter video game sessions and not worry about running out of something to drink. Now if only they had a special on pizza.....

Diet Sierra Mist is my favorite. I can't stand Diet Sprite, and Diet 7Up is too hard to come by anymore.
Yay for Machine!
Or I can find a chick who will bang me and then buy me my favorite video games as means of payment! Let's put the shoe on the other foot here!
WHOA! Holy cheapness. Awesome sale though. I thought I was all hoity toity with the BJ's Wholesale Club card!
