    Well in my area, there usually is no difficulty finding coke zero in 2l bottles....however, there are many stores, and I'll never understand this, who don't carry coke zero cherry and those stores that do carry it, it always seems to sell out almost as soon as they put the bottles out. Coke zero cherry is one of the best products they have....yet in many of these stores we say sugar laced coke cherry bottles all the time and little coke zero cherry....and let's not even mention coke zero vanilla where I haven't seen a 2 liter bottle in more than 2 years in the NYC area...don't know what's doing with it.....and since I believe in the New York City area cce controls Dr Pepper, have never seen a 2 liter bottle of Dr Pepper diet cherry (or the previous diet cherry vanilla).....twelve packs are available sporadically but they are far less economical (especially since I have to pay a 5¢ deposit on each can and am too lazy to bring the cans back...just put them out in the recycling bags.

    Cool

    that's exactly how it was at c-town today. the cherry coke zero was almost gone and then i bought about 1/3 of the coke zero 2L's... but there was plenty of cherry coke... and everything else for that matter.

    i don't know why, but it just seems that coke is holding coke zero back for some reason.

    It's those Coke brand managers from the commercials; they finally succeeded in suing Coke Zero.

    I've also noticed that the Coke bottlers in this area that have Dr Pepper don't have Cherry in 2L. Just 20oz and fridge. Maybe it's because they converted to contour 2L, or they just chose not to run it in 2L.

    Pepsi has plenty of it in Maryland, though. Reg and Diet.
