Default Coke Contest

I often purchase those 20 oz bottles of coke where "1 in 12 winds free coke". I've won like 4 times now--a 1 liter bottle, but where on earth do you get a freakin' 1 liter bottle of coke? My local grocery store doesn't have it, the delis don't have it, 7-11 doesn't have it.

I can usually find them in the liquor aisle, with the other mixers: tonic water, etc.

Mr. LLCoolJ,

I have the EXACT same problem. I bought a Coke on a whim and won the free liter, so I went back to the store to get a new one and they didn't have 1 liter. I was tempted to bring a 20oz and ask them if I could substitute it. Do you think this would work? 20oz<1liter so it's logical they'd accept it but I don't know. Now I have the bottle cap sitting with me. This is an annoying contest! I searched CVS and 7-11 to no avail.

Redeem them for 2 2-liter bottles.

A lot of the gas station convenience stores around here carry the 1-liter size.
