Can you buy Orange and Lime Crush Soda in the DC area?

[Sen. Walter Sobchak]

My employer is hosting a party in Washington in a few weeks and Orange Crush and Lime Crush are part of a long-running inside joke. But it occurs to me I don't recall ever having seen it on the East Coast.

Is getting a couple cases of each flavor likely to present a problem? Traveling with cases of soda is not something I would prefer to do.

1. What they have to bring it?

No orange crush in DC?

2. Orange 🍊 yes, not so sure about lime 🍋

3. They were bought up by Dr. Pepper years ago

and you should be able to get them nationwide. You might check with Target, they advertise the full line frequently, and find out the availability of Lime Crush. I know I've seen Orange Crush all over the east coast and here in NM. I just haven't seen the lime flavor, although I've seen their cherry and strawberry flavors.

4. Yes to orange and grape. No to lime. N/t

5. The OP might be able to order a case for DC pickup at Target

That would be the best bet, IMO, a lot cheaper than paying to ship it across the country.

Lime Crush shoulds pretty good, actually. I was never nuts about any of their other flavors.

6. Does it bother you to shop at Walmart?

It doesn't bother me. You can do an online check of inventory at Walmart. The stock varies from store to store.

What the store doesn't have in stock, you can order online and have sent to the store for pickup.

Where are you going to be staying?

9. Theoretically we're staying at the Trump International but that is likely to change

to a suburban location if there are concerns of unrest.

Being booked there is just a fluke because it came up as the least expensive according to the travel policy.

7. I think you're going to be SOL on the lime unless you go to Canada

Orange Crush should be no problem in the DC area. Lime, OTOH...I went to http://www.crushsoda.com (the US website) and found they make for us:

Orange
Grape
Strawberry
Diet Orange
Grapefruit
Pineapple
Peach
Cherry

...but absolutely no lime at all.

I also checked http://www.crushcanada.ca (the Canadian website) and found they make for Canadians:

Orange
Lime (eureka!)
Grape
Cream Soda
Diet Orange

It's only 504 miles one way between Washington, DC, and Kingston, Ontario - straight up . Up for a road trip?

8. Apprently it has been discontinued in the US

Which doesn't surprise me, it is really quite gross.

Getting it from Canada isn't a problem as I work in Calgary, it's just annoying for the purposes of a gag.

10. I work down the street from the Embassy of Canada.

Why not ask them where they get it?
