Coca-Cola enthusiasts may want to head to their local Home Bargains location to purchase a rare, lime-flavored version of the beverage that has returned after 17 years of being discontinued.
The price of the drink, which is only available at Home Bargain stores, has recently fallen by an Eagle-Eye shopper. The discovery was shared by Jo, who posts under the TikTok username @millennialdiscoversstuff. In a one-minute video, which has since gone viral with over 60, 000 views, Jo takes viewers on a shopping tour of her local Home Bargains.
The video, captioned “Shopping at Home Bargains Today”, showcases a range of bargains, from food to pyjamas and home accessories. However, what really caught everyone’s attention was the rare Coca-Cola Lime, priced at £1.99.
The video quickly sparked a flurry of excitement in the comments section, with one user saying, “Need to try that Lime Coca-Cola”, and another adding, “Amazing Home Bargains finds. Need to go”. Home Bargains, known for its motto “Top Brands, Bottom Prices”, has gained popularity for offering branded goods at lower prices than many of its competitors. The store has gone viral recently, with shoppers spotting rare items and even designer-inspired homeware.
According to reports from Grocer, Coca-Cola Line flavour returned after a 17-year absence in the market. Despite the zero-sugar free version remaining available up until 2018, it was discontinued in 2007. It was introduced in 2005.
After almost two decades, the Lime flavoured was brought back earlier this year in 300ml, 500, 1.75L and 8x330ml formats. Coca-Cola Senior Brand Manager, Charlotte Walsham said: ‘ We’re always looking to innovate and offer fans more of the flavours they love. With the release of Coca-Cola Lime, we’re excited to continue expanding our flavor portfolio in the wake of the wildly popular relaunch of new flavors last year. Coca-Cola fans can now enjoy their favorite original beverage with a tangy, citrus twist.
For those looking to grab a bottle, the 1.75-litre Coca-Cola Lime is priced at £2.50 at Sainsbury’s, which appears to be the only supermarket stocking it at the moment. Additionally, the zero-sugar version is available for £2 in Tesco, though it comes in a 2-litre bottle.
