So they jack up the prices of their products

How much can they jack up their prices? It's already like $10 USD for a 12pk of soda.

The middle man is taking you for a ride there. Soda is not that expensive.

Are you, by chance, a Sherpa stationed half way up Mt Everest?

Where you work is the problem lol, not coke in this instance. A can is like 50 cents

Same machine have water fo $1 by chance? I've heard of some places doing that as a health promotion, they offer the junk food but make you pay big for it vs something more healthy.

Who the fuck is buying coke at $10/12pk as it is. That's the real Avocado Toast. Holy shit.
