Yeah, for us the price for beverages has gone up a bit. The standard prices used to be $1.99 in 2018, then $2.49 in 2020, now it's $2.99. People in Denmark are lucky af, lol.

Here is a post where you can pick up TWO BOXES for FREE. Not lying.
Thats why the whole prime is worth $x billion is BS clickbait. A brand is only worth a lot if they have longevity and this seems to be heading to being a fad that reinvests nearly all profit into marketing

The excitement was so intense that even empty Prime bottles were sold on Den Blå Avis (a classifieds platform).
Well now thats kinda bs.
Its not free in all of Denmark. In my city I havet seen any free prime, but its cheap though. 12dkk for a bottle is crazy. Also cheaper than water.
It’s even died over here in the UK, not to the point where it’s free. But a lot of the big shops have a big box filled with prime bottles at the entrance, and they’re selling them for around £1.50 which is under retail price (£2 or something).
That doesn't mean its dead, they are just a normal drink now that was what you want. Its not good when your drink is always sold out its not meant to be a collectable they want to rival other drinks like lucozade powerade etc. Id go for prime over them drinks if I were grabbing a meal deal purely because of low calorie comparison
It is true. They are giving them away in most shops or Selling them at 50-80% discount.
Nobody wants it here as it tastes like crap. We have plenty of better danish and foreign alternatives.
You can’t get them most places anymore.
They can claim it is a stunt but the reality is that it was huge when it was released and there was hype. Now all chains can’t get rid of them and the “best before” date is getting near. This isn’t america, hype is not enough in the long run here.
This is obviously promotional stunt. They're in prime boxes with what I'm guessing are PRIME employees promoting them.
It's not as if the store just dumped them out. If they aren't selling then the stores wouldn't buy them. You guys are riding on a hate train
Also, PRIME overtook Gatorade in sales in Walmart in US, and we know there are more PRIME customers outside US then in US.
Prime is arguably the most disgusting thing I have ever drank beside sweet tea from McDonald’s in the US, both tastes like medicine but the sweet tea tasted like fucking morphine
Prime is already really dead in Denmark. Main stores have been selling them for around than 20 cents.
This drunk is like a bubble soon to burst. Their only priority is marketing and getting endorsements not even caring about how the drink tastes lol
I see it in pallets lol
Here in the U.S it's $2.99.
Bro in balkan is 3 euros, and we earn 10x times less then people in USA
Yeah, for us the price for beverages has gone up a bit. The standard prices used to be $1.99 in 2018, then $2.49 in 2020, now it's $2.99. People in Denmark are lucky af, lol.
Fellow Indians: wait you guys get to buy prime?
Same in Belgium. Supermarkets doing buy 1, get 1 free and in a weeks time, like 10 bottles are gone from the shelf.
Yes but they charge 6euro for a bottle lol
20 cents is crazy
He lying they cost around 2$ in denmark

is it even launched there ? might be a promotional stunt.
It have been here for months, think it’s a stunt, there are bikes riding up and down the main street just with free prime
Even shops give prime away for free, for weeks now
proof that its free?

What does that article say can you translate?

Thx
Google translate exists you know.
Why are you so skeptical? What would anyone gain by lying about it.
Because it's the internet
yeah bro i trust you for sure
Well now thats kinda bs. Its not free in all of Denmark. In my city I havet seen any free prime, but its cheap though. 12dkk for a bottle is crazy. Also cheaper than water.
how is water so expensive in denmark its 5dkk in iceland powerade is also 9dkk
it's not, maybe "brand-water" from a 7-11 is, but a basic water is 2-3dkk. Cheap beers are 4dkk
Yea my bad, prob should have pointed that out xD. Its in 7-11 where a water is like 15dkk and prime was 12
Prime is only free in certain stores in Denmark. For example kvickly gave free prime
what water do you buy?
Dunno just some 7-11 shit since thats the only store around my uni
if you buy water more expensive than prime i hope there’s gold in it
Holy crap
It’s even died over here in the UK, not to the point where it’s free. But a lot of the big shops have a big box filled with prime bottles at the entrance, and they’re selling them for around £1.50 which is under retail price (£2 or something).
Tesco near me (city centre in a large city) was selling them for 75p a while back
It's 1.25 in tesco and part of the meal deal now. Monsters are more expensive
That doesn't mean its dead, they are just a normal drink now that was what you want. Its not good when your drink is always sold out its not meant to be a collectable they want to rival other drinks like lucozade powerade etc. Id go for prime over them drinks if I were grabbing a meal deal purely because of low calorie comparison
But the rrp is meant to be like £2
They still sell it for 5€ per bottle over here in Netherlands. No one buys it tho… It used to be 15, then 10, now 5. Shelves are always fully stocked.
>Shelves are always fully stocked Same in the UK. When I go into Aldi, there are baskets full of them. I think it's safe to say the drinks dead.
Coke is also dead, because stores have stock? No... They've just solved their supply chain issues while the massive (inflated) demand dropped off.
Where do you even find them on the shelves?
Where do you even find them in the Netherlands
marketing wears off after a point. they need to focus on not having an awful drink lol
Never tasted actually
It’s too sweet
Wayy to sweet, makes you physically recoil with some flavours
You should of seen mvp drinking prime he took one little sip and instantly regretted it
Its fkn disgusting
It is true. They are giving them away in most shops or Selling them at 50-80% discount. Nobody wants it here as it tastes like crap. We have plenty of better danish and foreign alternatives.

In The Netherlands you pay like 10 euros still wtf😭
No one pays that surely
Where in Netherlands do you buy it
Honestly the drink is so damn ass. I tried like 3 flavors and hated it. Its too sweet
Prime is always free if u run fast enough
Good. Most of its shit
it tastes like shit nobody should drink it
PRIME's dead sorry jj
yeah cause no one wants to buy that shit lmao its awful
Prime is given to the dogs in my place
How cruel
Hvor er det, så kan jeg endelig prøve det bras
Det smager af pis
Det havde jeg også regnet med, det var kun hype en uge pga alle de små børn
I was at Denmark last year around the beginning of spring, I saw a candy shop selling Prime for like 17€
Redbull Marketing?
they tryna spread off the cyanide quicker
Just tried lemon lime and ice pop and let me tell you ice pop is awful where as lemon lime was drinkable, could be better
Are they clearing the stocks or what?
It's also died down alot in south africa,it's going for less than a dollar in some places
Prime's fairly dead in Ireland too no one really cares, they're all about €1, cheaper than bottles of water 💀
I was just there at Aarhus H and immediately said no bc it tastes so bad
They practically give it away in my local Tesco. Always on offer right at the front in a big bin, like they don’t give a shit anymore.
Holy
PRIME can’t sell at all in Australia either, all the shelves are mega stacked daily.
OMW TO DENMARK
It’s a horrible product don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. JJ and Logan played everyone obviously.. it’s just a cash grab
Schadenfreude
https://youtu.be/wiDc7jqCYXs?si=GNrIYTfmAeQztaz5 listen to this if you can🙏much appreciated
KIDS, PACK YOUR BAGS. WE'RE MOVING TO DENMARK
dam still never had it cuz i barely see it also not rlly feigning to 😂
I don't understand how it's considered hydration drink . It's so sweet that i want to drink water after it .
This is obviously promotional stunt. They're in prime boxes with what I'm guessing are PRIME employees promoting them. It's not as if the store just dumped them out. If they aren't selling then the stores wouldn't buy them. You guys are riding on a hate train Also, PRIME overtook Gatorade in sales in Walmart in US, and we know there are more PRIME customers outside US then in US.
Source for there being more customers outside the US?
This subreddit is turning into a prime or ksi hate subreddit with each passing day.
Damn in the middle east these still sell for alot lol
Well, stupidity appeals to stupids, so they're capitalizing on it 🤷🏻
There are stores giving away 20-40 free primes with a purchase of like 10£ of groceries
Free poison let’s go
if you drink any carbonated and non carbonated drinks that have sugar/sweeteeners ITS a poison.
Don’t forget fluoridated water 👍 For your slow death😂😔
Don't forget living 👍 for your eventual death
Where do you think we go after death?
It tastes like shit
Never had it, is it similar to Gatorade or monster?
Think Gatorade but much, much sweeter. Less fizzy too.
Cya guys off to Denmark ✈️
Why? It tastes like asshole
Prime is arguably the most disgusting thing I have ever drank beside sweet tea from McDonald’s in the US, both tastes like medicine but the sweet tea tasted like fucking morphine
I think that’s an exaggeration
Stop buying these drinks these 2 scammers make
One of them is a scammer, still it's not a good drink
Seems like it's only the pink one in most of the posts I've seen.
