And Arizona iced tea has been $0.99 for 30 years
Not in the last few years. They took the hard price off the can designs and now they're 1.39-1.69 depending on the place.

Walmart lists them at $1.
The official website also claims they're still $0.99: https://drinkarizona.com/pages/about-us
I think it's the fault of the retailer wherever you're seeing that price.
I've always gotten them at walmart for $0.88? in different states too
that's always been the case, even when they had that shit printed on the can. it's a matter of the individual retailers doing that. I think there was some system to report them to the company but obviously the arizona tea company doesn't really have any control over the prices that retailers decide to sell their shit for. which is partially why I think the whole thing that they're only supposed to cost a dollar everywhere is kind of lowkey just a marketing ploy.
30 years ago, Arizona iced tea was made with cane sugar. Now it's all high fructose corn syrup.
