Although I don't consume energy drinks on a daily basis (I like to think of myself as one with enough energy already :-)), I know of friends who've confessed to be addicted (to V especially). Every so often though, I'd be in the need for a quick fix and that's when the hunt for V begins.

Unfortunately, the hunt isn't nearly as simple as walking up to the nearest service station or the known corner shop that does sell V. Almost always, I have to visit several shops before I can find what I am looking for. It's not that the first and other shops where I didn't find V had run out of it, it's just that they didn't have the original V. They never run out of the fake V, the Berry flavoured one. I personally hate the Berry version. It simply tastes terrible.

What the hunting experience shows, is that I am not the only who perfers the original V. I am just always late. I hope this lesson is being learnt by those responsible for marketing the product in Fiji. Stop stocking the fridges with the Berry flavoured ones and make more room for the originals! You'll have more customers...occasionally ;-)
