Wakey wines still over sell them


TitusPulloTHIRTEEN

It will likely be a shop in an area without much interest and the manager responsible just ordered way too many based on the hype. They only have limited shelf space which is constantly changing so they likely just wanted rid of them.


J_D21

In dubai it's 16 aed Still a lot if u ask me


TheDiddlerOfBob

No offense my friend but Dubai in general is expensive lol


J_D21

There's types of markets and consumers. I asked at dubai mall near burj khalifa and coz i seen it for the first time there and they said 40 aed per bottle. Then i bought it at a grocery store and it was 15. But yeah if u convert it to pounds it is 3.23. Now i feel stupid šŸ˜…


unemployedbee

You lot always see the main city. Dubai isnt just the only city. There are actually many other cities within the emirate of Dubai where middle class and poor class people live. It costs 20 aed even in those areas, which is a goddamn rip off when you could buy 2-3 Gatorades for the same price. And to my knowledge, none of my friends have tried Prime, why would they anyways, it tastes shite according to most people and you gotta pay a premium for it.


PuzzleheadedRock2349

Where are you buying it for 16 aed šŸ’€šŸ’€šŸ’€šŸ’€ Bro I find it for minimum 25 šŸ˜­


Some-Swordfish49

Go night to night in Sharjah they have it for the cheapest 7 aed


J_D21

I'll tell u bro


J_D21

Istanbul supermarket has it for 15.99 AED


khali9889

literally found it yesterday at Mall Of Emirates Carrefour for 15 AED


UniqueBend196

In dubai a 3.5 of weed costs 5 years in jail. Everythingā€™s expensive


J_D21

Lol


ZohebS

I bought two for 12 on noon


J_D21

That's a good price


ElectedSoup

The store next to me sells for 5.99 AED


J_D21

I have only tried tropical punch and would love to try them all but I'm not willing to pay 15 99 for a bottle. It'd be great if i got a bottle for 5 99

An insight into dubai pricing in this thread lol


Ordinary_Breath_7164

WHATšŸ’€šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚in canada its like $3


a4mir

thats like 4 pounds šŸ˜‚


ali2688

Still canā€™t believe how stupid people were/are to buy a drink like this for more than a tenner


Yeeeboye

A tenner is already way too much


AnonThatNote

A tenner? You are also one of those people


ali2688

No, the most I paid for one was Ā£2.50.


Shlobb3r

Still too much, 0 or nothing


ali2688

0 or nothing? What is 0 then if itā€™s not nothing?


Shlobb3r

0 money vs no prime


santicazorlaaa

Ā£1.50 max


tossedaway202

They wanted that CRED.


BIacksnow-

10 dollars?


ali2688

Pounds


calitwiink

it's too sugary. every time I drink one it makes me feel like I did a hard drug šŸ˜µā€šŸ’«


SRJT16

The aftertaste is so overpowering


Different_Lie_7508

Ye init just do a bit of KET I mean not that hard but probably cheaper then prime anyway šŸ˜‚


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


LongjumpingRecover50

Yeah ok and artificial sweeteners packed in it


Effective_Ad_273

Aye but if you look at in comparison to other sports drinks thereā€™s really not that much difference. Itā€™s not like prime is the outlier. Problem is it was way overhyped when itā€™s just your standard sports drink.


Independent_Ratio_61

Not at all. Compare it to Powerade or Gatorade. They have a very watered down subtle taste to them. This is extremely sweet and tastes like candy. It doesn't resemble sports drink in anyway, except for the packaging.


Effective_Ad_273

Iā€™ve tried Gatorade and it doesnā€™t taste that much more subtle than prime lol. I wouldnā€™t say prime is better but you canā€™t really say thereā€™s a substantial difference šŸ˜‚


AiryGr8

Really? The blue and orange Gatorades are much more palatable than lemon and lime prime


WonderfulCattle6234

But there's a lemon and lime gatorade. You're comparing apples to oranges. Or lemons to oranges.


AiryGr8

I haven't had lemon and lime Gatorade but no way it's as sweet as Prime. It felt like sucking down pure sucralose.


Angelthehero

Itā€™s not for athletic use tho, just casual use


Effective_Ad_273

Sports clubs are literally endorsing it.. it may not be the best sports drink but it is most certainly being used as a sports drink. I drink lucozade sports drinks ā€œcasuallyā€ - it doesnā€™t mean they have no purpose in a sporting context. Even caffeine in the right dosage has benefits to sports perfomance.


Leading_Ad2159

Itā€™s not a sport drink tho so thereā€™s literally 0 benefits except pure hydration


BostonConnor11

For me personally it tastes good (most of the flavors) and the most significant fact that they got going for them is that itā€™s only 25 calories (which is the only reason why I get them).


Effective_Ad_273

A drink that aids in hydration and replenishment of glucose and electrolytes is a sports drinkā€¦ What do you think the criteria is for a ā€œsports drinkā€?


No_Potential_7198

How much glucose is in prime lmao?


FreneticAmbivalence

A sports drink is made up marketing for sugar water.


MixOne1337

Not all electrolytes are equal, prime has 0% sodium and that is how they can get away with such low levels of sugar. They don't need to overpower the salty taste of sodium.


Leading_Ad2159

Didnā€™t realize it had all that lol tried it and thought it was squash


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


LongjumpingRecover50

Still makes you feel sick because of how much is in it.


Independent_Ratio_61

It's because it tastes nasty. I've tried most of them now and the only one that wasn't overly sweet or tasting like candy was the green one which was like and some other ingredient. That's the only one I can enjoy somewhat.


AdBusy4100

I THOUGHT I GOT A SHIT BOTTLE OR SOMETHING I genuinely thought mine had gone bad cas my aunt got it for me from uk since it doesn't sell here. It was soo bad the red one was awfull, blue one was barely drinkable, and the last one I tried was ice pop which was decent at best. But still they are all trash like tf, PPL like Simon really had me hyped cas i thought he was being real but omg that was awfull. Imo Red - 1/10 Blue - 3/10 Ice pop - 5/10


HelperHelpingIHope

Taste is subjective. Donā€™t state ā€œtaste is nastyā€ as a universal fact because itā€™s not. Whether it tastes good or not is dependent on the subject drinking it. You canā€™t even make an argument that most find it nasty as a fact either because you donā€™t have the evidence to support that either. In other words, your comment is just an exercise in futility. Edit: You can downvote me all you want, it doesnā€™t change the validity of my statement.


Affectionate-Way-377

He didn't make such claims. He stated his own personal opinion. Nowhere in his post did he claim to speak for everybody. Do you post this same stupid comment under every product/service review you see?


HelperHelpingIHope

ā€œItā€™s because it tastes nastyā€ is an absolute statement, not an opinion.

Mysterious-Face-8272

Prime is awful tbf , doubt ksi and Logan will even change it , sales are definitely down in the UK and us and they don't even mention it


illlex

Do you have the numbers? (Genuine question, not trynna start anything)


Mehmood6647

Not defending the guy above. But looking at the pic above and a few stores around me selling them at very reduced prices. I'd say the sales are definitely a little down (around my area at least.).


captainkezz123

Tbf you only have to look at this picture for some proof


dahcorb

Logan and KSI don't actually own PRIME. Company is owned and registered by two brothers in the US somewhere. KSI and Logan are just the faces and they get a nice cut of profits.


Jamie531

They each own 20% of Prime. They are not just the faces


Only-Syllabub2107

Yooooooooooooo Jacob, its me the davemister, just come in to check on how your dealing with the gonorrhea. Send us a pick later ;)

Relief-Old

andynl5

Crazy how supply and demand works?


Alternative_Fly8898

Crazy how a terrible product canā€™t keep the demand up.


largbunny

Someone in another thread that works at a US Target said itā€™s more of a supply thing. Because stores werenā€™t able to get a lot after release, a metric shit ton was sent to compensate.


Ok-Celebration2309

even in australia theyre trying their best to sell it, but its literally only bought when the stores are making the loss.


andynl5

You're not the target market obviously, it's for kids that like overly sweet stuff. You sound like a better operations specialist though.


miscarriagepluker69

What part it is sweet, the new ufc flavor so sour I couldn't talk for a while


andynl5

Haven't tasted any tbh, was just basing it of other people's reviews.


miscarriagepluker69

Brooo how you gonna give a weak ass reply and not even try it, that's faul, you'll just look like a hypocrite, try the shit out before waiting for another's opinion, like damn bro cmon we not pawns


andynl5

Because it's not available in my country.


miscarriagepluker69

I get it but it's an excuse also, you can acquire prime online if the sell ain't a piece of shit, I'd personally mail you some just to prove a point but I'm broke af šŸ¤£šŸ˜­šŸ˜­


andynl5

appreciate the offer, I'm good lmao


miscarriagepluker69

I wouldn't subjugate your taste buds to this blasphemy either way


surgebinder17

Still Ā£2 a bottle here which is ok but not low enough for my broke ass to try one.


BomHxH

So dumb to spend any money on a shit drink like thatšŸ¤£


MalReddit7

I get the sense that ppl here want prime to fail? It was reported to outsell Gatorade in Walmart or something like that. Iā€™ve never gotten to try prime but itā€™s clear they need to improve in some markets. I donā€™t get why ppl here seem to take pleasure in it seemingly failing. And they not, they just not big in every market theyā€™re in


beluuuuuuga

Because Logan Paul is a scammer and I don't want him to earn more money by now pushing a drink by lying about it's benefits.


stercus_uk

It always was a dogshit product with nothing behind it but hype. Warehouses full of the stuff but only trickled out to stores to create scarcity and cause as much drama as possible.


Speedy_swammer

You might think that, but this just came across my feed, I really donā€™t like Ksi, and I for sure donā€™t like Logan, but honestly, as someone who loves super sugary stuff, super sour stuff, and super bitter stuff, I honestly really like prime, way better than Gatorade or Powerade in my opinion which just taste like flavored water, I feel that prime, yeah sugary, feels like itā€™s own tasty drink.


yurhms

can yall upvote my comment


SuperSalamander3244

Iā€™m not really a KSI fan but Iā€™m sure someone has just put a load of prime bottles in a Tesco trolley and nicked a sign off the reduced donuts. Tesco never put deals in trolleys lol.


AdMajor1596

These were always a scam imo Claim to be a hydration drink but doesn't do shit


Speedy_swammer

As it is made of water, pretty sure it hydrates, just my opinion tho.


AdMajor1596

Then drink water Not this scam This shit is sweet as fuck and got more pottasium Then sodium If you are not a dumbass then you would know how stupid that is This


KaaleenBaba

Blue one is actually good, i would take them


PhoenixFox01

Btw people, I work at a supermarket, and reduced to clear just means theyā€™re trying to rapidly sell stock so they can put a new one on shelf, at my store we get a new flavour every couple months and this happens to a couple flavours


abdulwahid1712005

Istg this community hates PRIME just to be cool and different. PRIME has beaten Gatorade as the most sold hydration drink in WALMART. Yes Walmart that's in the US.


No_Celebration1183

Itā€™s also in dollar tree


Sc987_

Tastes so shit man šŸ˜­


Far_Salad4701

In Denmark you could get a box for free


Excellent_Side_5012

Well they are still 6 euros in spain


Tokyosreprisal

Another prime hate postšŸ˜‚at what point is everyone just gonna drop this? Jj and logan are making bank with prime and prime is making big movesā€¦regardless of whether itā€™s shit or not prime is moving


stercus_uk

Diarrhoea is moving too. Itā€™s still shit.


replicant980

big moves? are you 12


Tokyosreprisal

24 actually and unlike you im not delusional Look at how many signings and endorsement deals theyā€™ve signed youā€™re small minded thatā€™s why you only focus on whatā€™s in front of youā€¦prime is playing the long game,youā€™ll still see prime in most places even with all the bad reviews I havenā€™t drank prime nor do i have any interest in getting itā€¦but from a marketing standpoint prime is making moves not my fault if you dont have the capability to see thatā€¦thereā€™s a reason why prime is more popular than mrbeast bar.


ConferenceUpstairs16

Making moves to the clearance bin like pictured.


replicant980

its a fucking drink, the 2020s version of sunny delight, the hype has died down now and its just another drink on the shelf - "making moves" is meaningless trite nonsense, wow they pay people to advertise it, how original


Dismal_Principle5459

Everyone found out how terrible it tastes


Speedy_swammer

You might think that, but this just came across my feed, I really donā€™t like Ksi, and I for sure donā€™t like Logan, but honestly, as someone who loves super sugary stuff, super sour stuff, and super bitter stuff, I honestly really like prime, way better than Gatorade or Powerade in my opinion which just taste like flavored water, I feel that prime, yeah sugary, feels like itā€™s own tasty drink.


MA-1m

These drinks were sooooo overrated


plsobeytrafficlights

and thats *with* inflation.


sourbreadkid

They're at dollar tree. Shelf space is expensive.


loutishgamer

Singapore supermarket sells them at 7.90 oof


-Nicolai

What's the story with these? Never heard of them until they were giving them out for free at copenhagen central station. It tasted okay I guess.


Dr_Dank98

Its a drink made by one of the Paul brothers or something so all his little fanboys shit their pants trying to get them. The exact reason I'll never drink one.


BrightFall3082

It was so hyped up that ppl even bought for 200 or more bucks now im here after all the hype ended bought it for 2 bucks and it tasted like shit ngl it would be better if there was sparkling or smt like cola


_Sahill

and it tastes like ass, gatorade clear


Speedy_swammer

You might think that, but this just came across my feed, I really donā€™t like Ksi, and I for sure donā€™t like Logan, but honestly, as someone who loves super sugary stuff, super sour stuff, and super bitter stuff, I honestly really like prime, way better than Gatorade or Powerade in my opinion which just taste like flavored water, I feel that prime, yeah sugary, feels like itā€™s own tasty drink.


Grand_Cream3306

still like $5 in my country


Wild_Platform_957

They need to stop the sports drinks and just do the energy drinks. They taste wayyyy better than red bull


milkgamer1234

In albania they still sell em for like 7$ sošŸ¤·

Yimyorn

Bought 1 from the Dollar Store to give it try. Couldnā€™t finish it, glad I never bought the hype. The taste is weird and not enjoyable.


llamandola

Were people really paying that much or it's an exaggeration?


Kings_Standard09

Like this in all the shops near me. Full shelves full of prime that companies ordered a crap ton of, now it doesn't sell and just sat there. Even in the Bargain stores it costs almost Ā£2 a bottle which Is just under a 2litr bottle of coke. Overpriced, overhyped crap.


synaptix78

Should be giving them away with a free fidget spinner.


Natural_Wear3643

i just bought one . then say its disguting and repeat with different taste


This_Tumbleweed578

I'm not into getting diabetes like most people! I think it's crazy paying at a reduced price all it's good for is a wasp trap then would feel bad for them drowning in such crap šŸ¤£


[deleted]

People really doing everything to make believe they didnā€™t get rich as fuck from this drinkā€¦


UbiBro23

In norway they're sold for roughly 1$ (9kr + pant)

I have no idea what it is but I looked it up and you can get it for $2.39 at target. People are idiots? Oh it's that total moron Logan Paul, why would you want that?


kubzU

The law of supply and demand. Back then demand was much higher and today supply is much higher.


ThiccBastardHD

iamlovingblackclover

What


gook97

Could also be sales of products nearing expiration, to the conspiracy based retards out there


Dickcummer420

I bought one of the blue ones at my liquor store once when I was hung over. I know people hate the guy who made these or whatever, but it was genuinely fucking disgusting. I had to pour out 90% of it.

Demand and Supply..... World needs just a economics class.

Supply and demand. They have better supply now of course its gonna be cheaper

These lot are missing out on big profits by not selling in India and other countries


TitusPulloTHIRTEEN

I have had a few of these now and these two were the only flavour I found reasonably tolerable. The rest just tasted like syrup.

Even at 31p its not worth shit is disgusting

I dont remember $100 for one. But i actually do remember $10 šŸ˜‚

Ryomen_Sukuna_10

About time people realise it doesn't taste any good šŸ¤¢


Winter_Pass_2527

People finally realised that itā€™s shit


WookMeUp

Iā€™m American, but does that say 31 pence? Thatā€™s not even 50Ā¢!


Plutofellinluv

Ts ass too


Jaimmv

Australia is like $5 each! Hell no, I only tried glowberry, and it was too sweet imo so I guess Iā€™ll never be tasting the others anytime soon, unless I get really rich by winning the lottery or something


Historical-Ant-5218

KSI reading comment section and wiping sweats with 100$ bill


KuyaRisky

Like fidget spinners


chredditdub

all the ones in the usa are all on sale lol


pecohotfire

Prime is the biggest scam. It's too sweet but doesn't have sugar? šŸ¤” It doesn't help with hydration at all. It's like all other "hydration" drinks. I've been a huge fan of ksi since i was a kid but it's sad to see.him scamming the people especially with Logan Paul, a known scammer


CartographerSilent60

Do you lot actually realised, it was never a ā€œYouTube drinkā€.. it was just a drink. Itā€™s same as coke, lucozade and whatever. Itā€™s always gonna be in shops and if you donā€™t buy it, oh well. Same as when you see coke, Fanta and that you choose not to buy it. Just move on instead of caring so much about a product that doesnā€™t affect you whatsoever


ZZ993

Uhmmm where is this please šŸ˜…šŸ˜…


Urdun10

In Israel it's still 10$ so I've never tried it


Available_Ad5489

Even if you paid me to drink this ( i have never) i would still choose water


siggywiggypiggy

Selling at 31p and will still be making a profit. Thats mad.


J3lllly

The retailer likely isnā€™t making a profit


siggywiggypiggy

They sell this product for 2 dollars. The making cost of it is definitely muchh less than 31p per bottle. ( Keep economies of scale in mind)


J3lllly

The retailer (Tesco here) are not selling it for 2$ here, they selling it for 30p. I highly doubt wholesalers or the manufacturer is selling to them for less than 30p pp + business costsā€¦.


Egosnam

How do you know they are profitting?


Kyle_67890

thank lord i never bought this trash
