That's why you shoplift it from a chain 
You probably shouldn't shoplift it, either: Stores already factor losses/shrink into the price, so unless an item gets shoplifted so often (e.g. through a coordinated effort) that stores just stop stocking it, all that will actually happen is (1) the store will just buy more to restock; (2) the act of shoplifting provides data about demand for the product; (3) you still promote brand recognition.
Shoplifting Monster is still preferable to buying it, but the real best thing to do is to either switch to a different energy drink brand, or perhaps for your own wellbeing to cut out energy drinks entirely.
FUCK
GODDAMMIT
Edit: It feels bad to unwittingly break BDS, at least cutting this out of my diet will be a good thing.
魔爪, not 怪物
They're all so bad I can't imagine thinking one is the best
They almost all taste the same and they never say what the 'flavors' actually are.
White Devil. It's like a white monster, but you can only find them on indigenous lands
I stopped drinking it because I found out it's BDS
This is me finding out now. I've been drinking it fairly regularly for work.
For a daily driver, zero ultra. For an occasional treat (or a pairing as recommended by your Monsterlier) green. Do they not get Ultra Violet where you are? That's one of my favorites and is this morning's breakfast.
do you actually drink it daily lmao
because ive been doing that for a few months n im starting to get chest pain n nosebleeds so i must be weak
means i either have to stop or keep going to build up tolerance, probably the latter
also ultra violet is indeed goated
Not anymore -- I've been cutting back since I learned (thanks to Mexico's labeling laws) that it's really high in sodium. The caffeine isn't off the charts if you're replacing coffee/tea but you might want to get a checkup or at least check your BP.
Werewolf. 
I just knew somebody in this thread would give me a reason to share this
lol, I'm afraid you're too late. For I have already depicted myself as the Chad smut books enjoyer and yourself as the Virgin energy drink consumer.
What, like their cocks?
Oh, you mean the energy drink?
Idk, even when I was addicted they all tasted bout the fucking to be same. Mild differences at best.
Down the drain
miss me with that poison tbh. i drink water, coffee, tea and booze and that's it
The white one because it tastes like battery acid and gasoline, but makes me feel normal when I don't have ADHD meds.
is that the one where they measure caffeine in rads?
The shrek one
The mango one.
I only get energy drinks once in a blue moon though. Caffeine is one of the most addictive substances and I’ve done a good job avoiding it. Still like the battery acid taste of energy drinks though so it’s a guilty pleasure
Ultra Fiesta. I can't find it anymore and it was my favorite.
It all tastes the same to me
The reformulated zero sugar one that tastes a lot like the OG monster is my go to when I still get it. But I've moved on Celsius since I "make" my own at home now with a home carbonizer.
Yup Zero Sugar green or OG when I can't find the former. Ultra Violet and Zero Sugar White slap too
Zero ultra. Though I haven’t been able to drink any energy drinks in a few months since I went back on vyvanse.
You see this is why you should switch to OLOSMAD: One Liter of Soy Milk a Day. Like me.
white, but simply for the meme potential and because it looks like cum. this garbage all tastes the same and i'm honestly glad i'm not using caffeine atm.
Lando Norris
i like the green one and the purple one
whichever one I didn't get last time around (time span: 2-20 weeks depending on sleep deprivation level)
Tangerine Mango Guava Strawberry Rockstar
The apple one is the worst kind of sugary garbage but it tastes like a fizzy caffeinated snapple so I kinda like it.
Also the lando and the passionfruit one and the ruby one.
Regular monster is not good but it is the best vodka chaser on earth - completely neutralizes that shit.
Mango, no question.
yeah this one with day of the dead graphics
That's the one. It kinda sucks that it's not sugar-free, but damn is it not tasty, tasty heart palpitations in a can.
They used to make a Moscow mule one that was heavenly. Lando Norris is my new favorite.
Making an actual Moscow mule with monster energy should be a magic potion that immediately teleports you to rehab
I used to drink the sugar free white can in a darker time of my life.
Peach for sure
I like the peach one
I like the violet one because of the color. 
It tastes good too.
Ugh. None. I hate the taste and smell of them. I had an ex that drank the OG flavor all the time and I couldn't stand the smell on their breath, it was insanely repulsive.
Never had a Monster, don't even know how they taste or smell.
Everything about the branding screams "stay away from me!"
