Has your local supermarket been out of Dr Pepper or of Brisk iced tea sold in 6-pack bottles?

Please only answer this question if you have encountered this shortage locally.

The Pepsi Bottling Company is in charge of Dr. Pepper and Brisk iced tea and I don't see it on the shelves for the last 2 weeks. I bought the last miniature six packs of Dr. Pepper. I bought 2 miniature six packs at Walmart and two miniature six packs at Safeway. I have checked many other locations and haven't found them. My daughter drinks Brisk iced tea. Please only answer if you have also encountered a shortage at your local supermarket or drugstore. I still see the individual bottles for sale at Little Caesars Pizza and sometimes at a drugstore but I'm not going to pay top dollar for these.

I live in a city of 1 million people. Edmonton has a ring Road freeway like Washington DC and light rail and Subway. We are not in the middle of the boonies and we do not live in igloos. Just wondering if this is a sporadic problem. Normally I can go from plastic bottles to aluminum cans and 12 or 24 packs of 12 oz but I normally buy them in 16 oz bottles as a six-pack. I have not seen them for weeks because I bought a bunch on sale and they were not in short supply a month ago. I noticed this phenomenon about a week ago.

Don't know, and don't much care.

Yes. Walmart has been out of Brisk Iced-Tea and Dr. Pepper for about a month now.
