They have this offer at my local Woolworths every couple of weeks. You can get two 4 x 500ML can packs (8 cans) for $15, which is a saving of $6.98. This works out to be less than $1.90 per can.

Woolworths also currently has 20% off 3 x 500ML bottle packs, they are available for $6.99, which is a saving of $2.

4 x 250ML V cans are also currently half price, at $4.57 (they are always a rip off at their usual price).

These prices are at Woolworths Chancellor Park, though I imagine that other stores have the same promotions running.

    Not that great, Mother (4x500ml) is often on sale for $4-6 at Coles and Woolworths.

      But when?

      And even half price is around 6 so 4 is impossible.

        They have never been available for less than half price at Woolworths, which is $5.49.

    A little background: (humour! )

    In 2007, evidence emerged that Coca-Cola’s inept marketing department was getting closer to understanding the bogan. Accompanied by a $15 million advertising campaign, they launched “Mother”. The can was covered in tribal tattoos, had an aggressive font, and the name of the product allowed the bogan to make endless jokes such as “I’ve got your mother in my mouth lol”. Despite these improving lures, the bogan did not like the taste, and there was still something missing. It failed.

    The next product launch worked, even though they only repackaged the Mother brand. Why? They reverted the taste to one of their previous unsuccessful attempts, and kept the tattooed aggressive can design. They slightly upped the obnoxiousness of the rhetoric, including phrases such as “our lame legal guys made us warn you”, which appeals to the bogan’s desire to break all the rules of people who usually tell the bogan what it can and can not do. However, the thing that caused the success was the doubling of the can from a slender 250ml to a hulking 500ml. At the end of the day, the bogan requires the widest TV, the loudest jet ski, and the biggest bicep. It will routinely overlook all other details of a product, and prioritise sheer size. Mother had become the energy drink that was clearly the most likely to help bogans win a fist fight, jump a dolphin on a Jet Ski, or successfully negotiate hordes of other bogans at DFO.

      The first version of Mother was unsuccessful because it tasted like what 'Wicked' tastes like today (basically pee with caffeine).

      • ronnknee on 13/06/2012 - 15:50

        How do you know what pee tastes like?

        • blackrider89 on 13/06/2012 - 19:45

          It is a lame joke though…

      I was just over in NZ and was surprised to see that one of their earlier attempts at an Energy Drink, Lift Plus, was still on sale (and seemed to be sold pretty much everywhere!). Definitely a better tasting drop than any version of Mother on offer.

      • yaziyo on 13/06/2012 - 16:06

        Lift Plus rocks! And everyone over there seems to agree :P

      I liked the taste of the original Mother because it had a completely different taste to everything else out there and it had a bit of a kick to it. I don't even bother drinking the new ones because they taste like generic $1 energy drinks.
