i'm pretty sure they don't because i can't find it either. of course, in
my town (i live on a college campus) Coke has a monopoly on the soda
market here so we can only buy Dr. Pepper in the grocery stores and
restaurants OFF campus. they sell NOTHING but Coke in the dorms, in the
dining halls, and in the university convenience stores, and in all the
vending machines on campus. it's enough to drive one batty

laura, who needs about a gallon of DP right NOW.

I think it varies wildly, even in the same general region. I used
to live in the suburbs of chicago, and could get regular, diet, and
diet caffeine-free (but not non-diet caffiene free). In champaign-urbana,
illinois, I could get anything. Now I'm out in california, and have
only seen regular and diet.

All I can suggest is to keep looking in different stores, and tell
store managers exactly what you want.

Good luck!

They have it here in Vermont, packaged under the label "Transmission Fluid".

But seriously folks... "diet caffeine-free Dr Pepper"??

I always thought that it was plasticizers in the DP that made it taste
awful; the default condition is what it tastes like in glass.

But I prefer the taste of Dr. Pepper in cans myself. (Hmm, beer too, I
wonder if there's itty bitty bits of aluminum suspended in the liquid;
maybe the human body subliminally craves metals?)

I have been looking for the same in my area in Ohio for a month and can't find it all of the sudden. Don't know what's up. Nobody seems to know.

I'm having the same problem here in Phoenix, AZ. Just called the local Coca Cola warehouse from where the product is delivered to stores and was told all the store in the region have discontinued ordering it. The only way to get it back in stock is to speak with store managers and request they stock it. Walmart also.

I live in Sacramento, California, not only can I not find Caffeine Free Diet Dr.Pepper in the 5 stores within a 4 mile radius of my home but Diet Dr Pepper in a 12 pack is also very hard to find.

What’s up Dr.Pepper?????
