Lucozade is rank since they changed the recipe.

I was saying as it is short dated it might be the old full sugar one. It was in tesco for a good while afterwards, but only in overpriced single bottles.

Probably in other 2euro type shops. I am surprised the old one is not back, I was hoping it was all just a marketing scam.

COMIC-CON 2010: Wonder Woman’s invisible jet for sale…not!
July 23, 2010 | 11:25 p.m.

Wonder Woman Invisible Jet
This is one collectible you’re going to want to keep mint-in-box.

Mattel’s Wonder Woman Invisible Jet isn’t just invisible, it’s nonexistent. The Hot Wheels packaging suggests that the jet is nestled within the cardboard and plastic molding (pictured on right).

Gullible buyers can be forgiven for thinking there’s a miniature jet in the box — Mattel’s designers had weights hidden inside to make it feel as if it actually contained a toy.

The joke continues on the back of the box, in the place where Mattel usually provides quick facts about the vehicle inside, such as its make and model. Here’s an excerpt:

Designer: The Amazons

Birthplace: Paradise Island

Specialty: Created by Amazon engineering, Wonder Woman’s Invisible Jet can make transatlantic flights without refueling.

The idea was spawned April 1, when Mattel’s social marketing team came up with a prank post on Facebook that announced it would start selling the jet. Its artists mocked up a box and posted the picture. Most got the joke, but many didn’t. So many people asked the company where they could purchase the item that Mattel decided to make it a limited-edition collectible.

Mattel is selling the $5 non-toy as a Comic-Con International exclusive item on the show floor until Sunday, after which the invisible jet will disappear. For real.

Mr price have orange and pink lucozade and lucozade sport 8 for €2

If people see the lucozades could they please check the total carb content.

The old one would be around these figures, best to check the "per 100ml" as the other will vary.

the new one is 8.9g total carbs

Cans would be the best bet, as PET bottles lose fizz a lot faster.

I would have no problem drinking cans of lucozade a few years out of date.

I used always use lucozade as a hangover cure but lately it definitely wasnt working and didn’t seem to taste the same either. Guess I know now why.

I get a 6 pack in Mr Price for 2 euro but I’ve just checked the ingredients and they are the new recipe.

I'm pretty sure Snake Plisken knows that. :pac:

It was still open 2 weeks ago when I was there, can't confirm if it's still open today though.

Yep it’s still open and busy as hell, asked staff and they have heard nothing about it closing, maybe Dealz are going to re-appeal the decision. I hope it stays open as the nearest for us would be Tallaght or blanch.

dealz had matchmaker eggs, I only noticed orange colour boxes, but was not really looking. You could contact them on facebook as most shops tend to reply faster that way.

"pointy" shows a shop in clontarf had them, maybe ring them

Spotted Breaking Bad final season Blu Ray today in local Dealz

When Tesco was clearing out the entertainment stock outta their stores back then, i got BB final season on BD for €2 inc Die Hard dvd collection too.

Although 1st season of Fringe on BD was cheaper in Cex, funnily enough i saw another copy in Cex was dearer too
