I popped to my local B&M store in Tiverton, Devon to get some pig out food for a Sunday afternoon film & I spotted that Coca Cola life was reduced from 69p down to 55p for 1.25L. The shelf was full, but this may go quite quickly, but I know it's not to everyone's taste. I would guess this is national as it's on their website.

I was about to post this as well but spotted that the Best Before is September 2015 so I don't think this a good deal. What is on yours?

Are you sure that was not a 1.75l bottle?
I remember seeing the 1.75L bottle of this for 69p last month in the Worcester store with a BBE Sept 2015, but they were all disappeared by last weekend.
(not sure if that's a mis-print though, despite it giving the qty twice, as I can only find B&M selling that size coca cola - perhaps it is 1.25l.)

Not really a fan of Coca cola but I have tried this when it was on sale ages ago, I couldn't tell what the difference was supposed to be either.

Why is this called "Life". It still has refined sugar in it, which is still associated with Diabetes and Obesity which contributes to reduced life span. It may reduce life span less than normal coke. Maybe it should be called Coka Cola Reduced Reduced Life.

Refiners sugar isn't a problem because there is no difference between that and natural sugars found in food. Sucrose is sucrose, it's not healthier if it's honey instead of coming from a packet.
When consumed to excess, like with any food whether fat, protein etc, you will consume excess calories and gain weight which is the biggest risk factor for diabetes. A direct link between sugar and diabetes is tenuous at best.
You can't attribute a single product to something like that. Plus it has less sugar than other alternatives like pure fruit juice.

100 % this is 1,25l. I have spotted best before when I came back home. This shouldn't be on sale after september so I'm considering to go there tommorow and ask why is still on.

Our local B&M was in our local paper with someone complaining about them selling out of date items.
I thought companies were allowed to sell out of date items, just at a reduced price.

The B&M website now shows a 1.125l bottle for 55p (reduced from 69p)
