I've drank 4 cans in one night of sparxxx it didn't seem to do much. it's not really worth it IMO.
ive had it. it's okay at most. just buy booze.

Absinthe isnt that good, I have tried the real stuff before nothing special.
But I could never finish a full sparx before, its some of the nastiest crap ever.

It's okay. It doesn't have enough alcohol content for me to buy it... it's like five bucks a can! I think there's a new one called Tilt that has a higher alcohol content, but don't quote me on that cause I'm not entirely sure.

they have a 6% and a 10% alc. by volume sparx how much more alcohol do you need, otherwise drink liquor? and you can get 4 cans for like 6 bucks at walmart. but you're right the tilt is cheaper and more alcohol.

I've definitely never seen 4 cans for $6, and I've purchased alcohol from Walmart plenty of times. I'm fairly positive that you can get single cans for about 4-5 dollars plus CRV and tax, so it ends up being like $5 per can. That's pretty expensive when you can just buy a 1.75 liter bottle of wine that's 12-13% for less than $10.

I could swear its 6 or 7 bucks. I only bought it a few times and I've forgotten. Maybe california prices are a lot higher?? good call on the cheap wine.

hey, keystone isn't that bad. i'll keep buying it as long as wal-mart keeps selling it for $12.80 for a 30 pack.
anyway, i know my buddy sure likes this stuff, i've never had the desire to try it, but he gets really hyper and it's just annoying.

No you can't. Down south and out west you would be able too.

In NJ and parts of PA like Philly you can’t get alcohol at convenience stores, general stores, even grocery stores. And you can’t buy bottles of Hard Liquor after 10PM.

Ah, it's not as serious as people make it out to be. Millions of people drink red bull and vodka or Monster and vodka... It's not enough of the opposite to counter act with each other and do serious damage. Relax a little.

Yeah, but Bars around me are open 24/7 because I live right outside of Atlantic City. So it isn't that bad.

The issue is that the caffine and sugar in the energy drinks causes your heart to beat faster and a spike in Glucose while the alcohol thins your blood. Even still, unless you have a serious heart condition it's nothing to be concerned about.
