    I was browsing a site today, and I came across some various pictures of coolers and such, and I could swear that I see Jones in 20oz squatty bottles in this picture. Can anyone confirm or deny that Jones was ever produced in PET? And what is the product that is right below the "Jones"? I can figure everything else out, but that one stumps me.

    I wonder if thoes are old or not? Jones used to have 20 oz pet bottles about 6 years ago. But interesting if they are new bottles.

    Wow. I have seen that type of cooler with checkered borders. Somewhere in the Puget Sound. not sure which one, but certainly in King County. The bottles below the "Jones" sure looks like 7up, but the bottle on the far right looks like Welch's strawberry. Interesting. RC does that in much of this region. (Crush, Welchs, etc) Brian

    Ron, it's definately an old picture. Cherry Coke is in a bolt bottle (it's in a contour bottle now), plus those are the old graphics for Minute Maid Orange, Nestea, Coke, and Diet Coke. I'd say the picture is at least 2 years old, if not older.

    7-Up and Welch's Strawberry do make sense for the three facings I couldn't identify.. thanks.

    I agree Fusion, but I think it's probably closer to 5 years old - Jones gave up on those bottles for good years ago.

    Not to mention the prices.. $1.29 for a 1 liter! More like $1.79 now.. and $1.29 for a 20oz (in convenience stores).
