Coke Zero sold out all over the place?

Hey all Anyone noticed in Tesco Hertford that they have no Coke Zero whatsoever anymore? bit odd.... wonder why that is, was the same in Potters Bar Tesco when I last popped in there, bloody annoying, I hate drinking normal Coke and I'm not a fan of Diet Coke anymore. And I hate Pepsi! My fault for being fussy I guess :)

Doesn't look like they do it online either, which comes from Stevenage.

I was in Hertford Tesco this afternoon, and unless I am very much mistaken, there was Coke Zero on display!

Bet the person that bought it has ebay'd it off now for a few quid :P Seriously though, I know its not a big deal but still, it's bloody strange, why would they stop doing it? My business head says maybe they are doing an offer on Diet Coke & Coke at the mo? Cant recall if they are, will look on the website later :)

I know what you mean, it can be very irritating when an item you like is lost from the shelves. I have noticed that things often disappear but then come back with a change of packaging so it may only be a temporary situation.

Is the clue in the name of this beverage perhaps?

I think I remember reading when Coke Zero was launched that is just Diet Coke relabelled to appeal to the Male market.

Not so sure that's true, Coke Zero & Diet Coke tastes different to my tastebuds :O

Different chemical used to sweeten the phosphoric acid, perhaps?[:D]

It is still available in other supermarkets, looks like Tesco have decided not to stock it.
