Post your Christmas gift ideas here.
 

As with anything of this nature (and soda in general) it is all about your personal preference. I really like them as does my wife and dad whom we bought this one for.

The feel, texture, and fizz is the same but the flavors are not going to be the same as Coke or Dr. Pepper. They have their versions of those drinks as well as all the other flavors of soda so it really is just a matter of discovering if you like the flavors they offer. The two I mentioned are my favorite. The orange is also pretty good.

I definitely wouldn't jump into it without tasting some of the flavors. I only invested in ours after tasting some at a store. If you know someone with one or see it at a store give it a try. You definitely won't find it gross and you may really enjoy it. It is a cheaper and "healthier" alternative.

Funny you brought up gifts. At work they came up with this stupid secret santa shit all the sudden and I felt stupid to bow out so have been trying to think of a gift. I actually drew the boss.

$20 limit.

After some thought, I decided to get a $20 Lowes gift card.

But I'm gonna make him work for it. I am going to send him on a mission. A letter with a hint to go to another spot to get a hint to go to another spot to get a hint to go to the gift. The gift will be huge. A box in a box in a box in a box in a box. Then a comment saying " you didn't think it would be here did you?" then send him to the glove box of his snow plow truck to get the gift card. He makes me work. It's his turn.

I'm a big fan of Izze, but it's a tad pricey. Also, I have a good juicer. How does the sodastream do with the basic job of carbonation, and how easy is it to just carbonate fresh fruit juice, or at least mix carbonated water with fresh fruit juice?

Have you gone to odditymall and searched for "condiments"? You could save $8 and your gift would be talked about forever in company lore.

I work at a prison.

There is no "Secret Santa" in prison.

Well, there is, but it's not a fun day...

handwashing? I'll be sure to let my wife know. lol

lol.

It does carbonation really well and it holds the fizz a good amount of time even after numerous opening and closings of the bottle.

You carbonate before mixing in the flavors so you would mix your juice with the carbonated water. I imagine people on out there have tried what you are suggesting so you may be able to get more firsthand information on it.

Where did you purchase this?
