The taste of a new generation

Before coming to Dubai - the last time I paid 15 pence for a can of Coke/Pepsi was over 20 years ago in the UK. However here in Dubai said can/bottle costs 1AED be it from a vending machine or shop. I can't even begin to imagine how cheap soft drinks are if brought in bulk from somewhere like Carrefour.

It seems however that petrol is even cheaper than the coke here!
