It was just one. I got the other three.
I don't want to tip anyone off. You would have to explain the reason why a sea of easy to get to red caps won't do. I would say the odds of finding any more in the next few days would go down if anyone working there knew what they were.

Well, I'm on a road trip to UT/NV/CA and back to WY. Didn't see Throwback anywhere except Nevada. (Reno area) I got some... not bad, not great though. Still wondering what an eyedropper of citric acid, some of Zabe's Magic Ice Crystals and some extra carbonization might do for this "formula"

I with on your wanderings. Besides flavor, carbonation is what makes soda ...POP.... (yes I'm a corn ball). LOL

pepsi and moutain dew throwback
For the Central Florida members, I have found Pepsi TB and Mountain Dew TB in 20 oz bottles at Publix Supermarkets and Walmart. I know in the Target ad for today, they are advertising the 8 pks., 4 for $10, but at a Hess Gas Station near the Univ. of Central Fl., they have 8 pks., of Pepsi TB and Mountain Dew TB, for $1.99/ 8 pk.
I agree with the other members, the Pepsi is good, but could use a little more carbonation.

I saw the Pepsi Throwback for the first time today in 20 once bottles at the 7-Eleven in Phillipsburg, N.J. I did not notice if they had the Mtn Dew throwback, sorry. :-(
I went to other places in the area (Wawa next door to the 7-Elev in P'burg, N.J.), 7-Eleven in Nazareth, Pa., and Sheetz in Bethlehem, Pa. None of those places had any throwbacks at all. Neither did Wegmans in Wilson, Pa.

I thought the carbonation in both the TB Pepsi and MD I had last week in 20-oz bottles was good -- better than the usual flat-ish corn-syrup versions.

I was able to buy a 12 pack (thats all that was there) and I had a can of it so far, it tastes a little less carbonated than regular Pepsi, and maybe a little sweeter. Just like most people already said.
Both Pepsi and Mountain Dew Throwbacks are very hard to locate! I dont know why Pepsi only distributed this in very small amounts. Originally this was supposed to be a limited edition 8 week long product, I dont know why they decided to cut back on it so much, and only made it available in select stores. With the way Pepsi went about doing this not many people are going to know this ever existed.

I was in one convenience store where they had a generic sign for the two Throwback products on the cooler, with a 2/2.50 price, but in the cooler, no product. I asked about it, and they said "it's on order.."

Some stores won't authorize a limted product if they have a strict planogram, others are jsut slow at getting it done.
