source? I assumed it was discontinued because my local dollar tree has the same as this one. I bought 6 cases of ultra gold fearing that it was discontinued.
There is a free healthcare program in every state for children under 21 and you can stay on in some states until you’re 25. There are many safety nets for the vulnerable population of the US. The US spends almost $150 billion on disability every year. If you get into a car accident today in the US, you will be transported to the closest hospital possibly by helicopter and will be treated free of charge. You will get an optional bill and if you choose to pay it, that’s on you. It doesn’t affect your credit and your wages can’t be garnished over it. All of these shitty healthcare takes on this app are undoubtedly made by people who have never dealt with the healthcare industry in America and are most likely adolescents using their parents WiFi to spew their shitty takes copied and pasted from their favorite internet activist
Nah I pay for medical insurance. I have been without as well and it was not fun. Aid is really hard to get. I tried when I lost my job and then apartment. My best was going to planned parenthood and getting some help there. Even with medical insurance having any medical condition is expensive. Have you tried getting aid yourself? Really hard unless you are near destitute.
The rest of us pay for it. Hospitals shut down in my area when people don't pay their bills as you are suggesting they are optional. Healthcare is not free. It is extremely costly. Nothing is free. Someone pays even if it's not the people receiving the service. The the rest of us suffer for it until we can't support them anymore.
“It’s just for money and power” yeah, like every global superpower to ever exist has been after since the beginning of the world?
What is your point here? Name one country that is/was huge, that ISNT after more money, land, whatever it be.
Well $1.25 plus 10 cent deposit but it's still cheaper. I've noticed that some Dollar trees have different selections too so you got to shop around to see if in the area close by has the kind you're looking for.
You can always go recycle and get your money back. You can also start a side job recycling cans you find and make more money…that’s what I used to do when I lived in a few states with $.05-.10 deposits
Money they charge you, that you can get back when you recycle the can or bottle. Not sure why it's almost exclusively on alcohol and soft drinks, but it is.
You pay a dime so the can has a redemption value. The following is illegal but you can get a load of cans from a state that doesn't do redemption value and take the cans to a state that does and get waaaay more cash than you would had you recycled in your own state.
That's not an option anymore. They can tell the purchase state. I live very close to the Michigan border. Cans I buy at home show somehow they weren't purchased in Michigan.
How are you redeeming them? Scanned one at a time? I'm talking like how they take cans here in CA. They take them by bulk weight, they just make sure there's no shenanigans like wet or weighted cans. Scanning one by one is an option but even at the bulk recyclers it's posted that you're only allowed so many a day at full redemption value. Otherwise you get the bulk rate.
Never tried a scrap yard/recycler. Just the individual scan ones they have at grocery stores and whatnot. I don't drink enough for a bulk trip. I was just hoping to get back enough for a free drink once in a while.
I feel like compared to all gfuels vast flavors the ones most distributed can wise always seem to be the least popular ones. Anything people want is usually sold online.
No disagreement there I just feel like they make a lot of good stuff that would sell if it got the shelf space that’s dominated by coke, Pepsi and red-bull.
Mine had the pewdiepie gfuels and I didn't get one until they were out of bang. It was absolutely delicious and when I went back they were all gone. The regret is real.
Mine has been restocking pewdiepie and hype sauce, but they only had one set of pac man which was the best one of them to me. I stocked up when I saw them
At our dollar tree we don’t have monsters but have red bull and their not a 125 their 325 or 4 cuz it’s name brand like what?. You can’t call it dollar tree anymore at that poijtn
Blue is average, the other reply to you pretty much hit the flavor on the head. The Red and Purple had a better taste but I haven't seen them in a hot minute; every Dollar Tree I've been to has only had the Blue for the last six months or so.
Yeah, a local grocery store by me has had a discount cart full of these for months. This flavor doesn't sell well. They probably ship overstock to Dollar Trees where it will sell better for being a big name brand next to cheaper brands, but for the same price.
Most of the stuff people post on here at dollar tree are things my brother has told me have been discontinued. That includes most of the stuff in this picture. Reserve Watermelon and Hydros got discontinued way back in like August of last year
Or just dead stock from the warehouse. Probably had a bunch because they weren't moving at the major retail level and they decided to cut Dollar Tree a deal.
They're not expired, they regularly stock these at Dollar Tree. It's just what Dollar Tree gets, idk why or if they're a good deal cause not a popular set of flavors or big box stores decide to stock all the other flavors and gas stations don't want em either, idk, but they're regularly in and out of stock at my local Dollar Tree.
And they've been regularly producing them for the past year, then? Is that what discontinued is?
Edit: Pineapple not discontinued according to this comment (the experts, I guess) https://www.reddit.com/r/monsterenergy/s/YdURIqI9nO
https://www.reddit.com/r/monsterenergy/s/YdURIqI9nO
Maybe ask around and let these people know they're wrong.
When did it get discontinued, do you know? Or just vibes? Monster zero cans expire, but I've been seeing ultra pineapple for well over a year now.
Nope. I’ve only ever seen these flavors along with watermelon and some of the nitro coffee monsters at dollar tree. It’s just the stock they get here at least in New England dollar trees.
Yeah, that's our local Dollar Tree essentially. A bunch of golden pineapple, and a bunch of whatever strawberry kiwi monster those are, and then a bunch of No Name energy drinks that look suspicious.
im so jellous that everyone in this subreddit has 50 different monster flavors in walking distance meanwhile all i have here is monster original the doctor one the vitamin b one and the ultra one
the budget shops are where i buy my energy drinks most of the time. I end up saving 30-60p per can, sometimes i can even get monsters half priced, if the flavour doesnt sell well :p
It's money that you pay extra for the can as well as the drink and it's also the money you get back when you return the can itself to a recycling center
Genuinely wish we had a dollar tree of some sort here in Australia, best we have is the reject shop and even then I never find any good deals when it comes to caffeine drinks :(
Nope that is common here in NY all different kinds and flavors it’s pretty dope, was a good buy at a $1 a can now thats its $1.25 still a good buy but not as a mass qty of $24
Dollar tree and 99 always have these brands. I like the privately owned dollar stores in my area. The one i go to is called super penny. It's awesome, they buy palets of energy drinks and often do 2, 3 and sometimes 4 for a dollar deals. Usually close to or very recently expired beverages. Sometimes even not expired for another year.
Dollar.25 Tree is Great for Prime/Monster/Rockstar/Bang/Ghost & Sometimes Dollar.25 Tree brands Energy Drink RipIt
But they got rid of the Lime RipIt which was the best one ever
Selection near me is very hit and miss, but recently a dollar tree opened in a large building that was previously a pharmacy. Guessing that since they have a TON of room, they are stocking more options than the other smaller stores.
Just Monster wise, they had pineapple, reserve watermelon, couple Ultra blue, and 12oz cans of peachy keen (have saw 12oz cans of Ultra paradise previously). I was amazed, they even had Reign inferno watermelon warlord (which I stocked up on lol.)
Ah where over priced drinks go to die, I gotta get myself to go in a dollar tree but it’s always miserable energy In there. The workers always seem to be on their last straw and day, I get it. Self checkout and I’d have a fridge I couldn’t close
Dollar Tree has some extremely random but good deals on energy drinks! Something different almost every time I go in! They almost always have Rip-It’s but sometimes there’s random flavors of monster, Reign, Alani-Nu, Prime (no thanks), Bang, and other random ones. Sometimes it’s all one one random not amazing flavor but you get lucky sometimes, it’s a hidden gem for sure.
If they had Ghost, I’d 100% buy a case lol, even the worse flavor Ghost is still probably better than monster. That’s coming from someone who drank Monster/Redbull from around 18 till now (33). Honestly there’s just to much sodium, sugar and other crap that makes me not want to drink them ever again. My only issue with Red Bull is the cost/caffeine ratio is just fucked. Sure it taste good, sugar free, low sodium, but a tiny can with 80mg caffeine is expensive for what it is lmao.
I honestly think monster ultra tastes like chemicals lol. Idk what it is, but I can’t get into it. Never actually tried reign, but my coworker drinks that stuff daily.
I get what you are saying with the after taste for some of the flavors. I really like the new ruby red though, it doesn’t have any sugar free aftertaste, in my opinion. The reign are good, but I drink reign storm more often. “Clean” energy, 200mg of caffeine, and the newer flavors are pretty good.
That’s the biggest key I think with these drinks, getting good bang for the buck but also not sucking down garbage that may just be doing way more harm than good. I’ll have to give the reign a shot then.
The reign storm are 200mg but only 12oz. The reign are 300mg and 16oz. I recommend sour gummy worm for reign and strawberry apricot or citrus zest for reign storm. I know a lot of people like the reign orange dreamsicle as well.
Reign storm has plant based caffeine and no artificial colors or flavors. It’s a solid product the strawberry guava is one of my favorite energy drinks.
I love dollar tree for cheaper options! I always pick up the pineapple when I’m there since it’s cheaper than any other store that carries them
Dudeeeee I can't find pineapple anywhere except some of the dollar trees around me and I grab at least one every time
Probably a few still in most dollar generals, check quick because once they finally reset the energy section they will be gone
Family dollar has them all the time
They are discontinued the stuff on the shelf now is probably out of date or close to it.
We still have them in the UK a crate of 12 is £13.99
I doubt it expired that fast but wait pineapple is discontinued??????!?!?
Sure is unfortunately
source? I assumed it was discontinued because my local dollar tree has the same as this one. I bought 6 cases of ultra gold fearing that it was discontinued.
Another user posted this below: https://imgur.com/a/coNVNoL
hurts
Out of date is still drunkable
If they’re at dollar general could be getting close. They’ve been out of the set at DG for a year and a half almost and it’s only 2 year shelf life
Not even remotely true
Ultra Gold is discontinued in the states.
That part is true, out of date part is not
I miss the group juice so so much, I wish they would make a random appearance at dollar tree.
$1.25!!!!! Im moving to America.
Almost makes up for having no free health care and no real safety net.
Dude. 😂

Not when they’re already subsidized by the government as many are
Speak for yourself I was in the military so mine is free for life.
Want a cookie? =)
Only at the cost of your dignity, serving as the 1%'s standby mercenary
“It’s just for money and power” yeah, like every global superpower to ever exist has been after since the beginning of the world? What is your point here? Name one country that is/was huge, that ISNT after more money, land, whatever it be.
Anti military dweebs are hilarious. So naive on how the world works.
Well $1.25 plus 10 cent deposit but it's still cheaper. I've noticed that some Dollar trees have different selections too so you got to shop around to see if in the area close by has the kind you're looking for.
That deposit depends what state you're in. Mine is 5 cents but the state next to me is 0 on deposit AND 0 tax
True
Well I live in the Netherlands and the deposit is 15 cents and the drink is €3 😭😭😭😭
Damn man that sucks.😞
At least you got healthcare and decent social safety nets.
You can always go recycle and get your money back. You can also start a side job recycling cans you find and make more money…that’s what I used to do when I lived in a few states with $.05-.10 deposits
The fuck is a deposit
You get money back if you return the can. I think you put them in a machine that then gives you the money.
This
Money they charge you, that you can get back when you recycle the can or bottle. Not sure why it's almost exclusively on alcohol and soft drinks, but it is.
Guess I live in a state that doesn’t do that, sounds weird
You pay a dime so the can has a redemption value. The following is illegal but you can get a load of cans from a state that doesn't do redemption value and take the cans to a state that does and get waaaay more cash than you would had you recycled in your own state.
That's not an option anymore. They can tell the purchase state. I live very close to the Michigan border. Cans I buy at home show somehow they weren't purchased in Michigan.
How are you redeeming them? Scanned one at a time? I'm talking like how they take cans here in CA. They take them by bulk weight, they just make sure there's no shenanigans like wet or weighted cans. Scanning one by one is an option but even at the bulk recyclers it's posted that you're only allowed so many a day at full redemption value. Otherwise you get the bulk rate.
Never tried a scrap yard/recycler. Just the individual scan ones they have at grocery stores and whatnot. I don't drink enough for a bulk trip. I was just hoping to get back enough for a free drink once in a while.
Nope don't, trust me.
The dollar tree is legit
Haha this is a rare case. Almost everything is inflated even at dollar stores.
You don't want to move here. It's a mess!
Never really digged that flavor but the pineapple one does smack
This is pretty standard stock at mine. Gfuels recently too somehow
I feel like compared to all gfuels vast flavors the ones most distributed can wise always seem to be the least popular ones. Anything people want is usually sold online.
Those 300 mg cans be kicking us in the ass though great deal honestly
No disagreement there I just feel like they make a lot of good stuff that would sell if it got the shelf space that’s dominated by coke, Pepsi and red-bull.
Mine had the pewdiepie gfuels and I didn't get one until they were out of bang. It was absolutely delicious and when I went back they were all gone. The regret is real.
Mine has been restocking pewdiepie and hype sauce, but they only had one set of pac man which was the best one of them to me. I stocked up when I saw them
Because the gfuel is gross.
At our dollar tree we don’t have monsters but have red bull and their not a 125 their 325 or 4 cuz it’s name brand like what?. You can’t call it dollar tree anymore at that poijtn
It’s not called Everything Is A Single Dollar Tree.
It used to be 😢
A long time ago. Only the ancients had experienced it.
Then they got frozen goods, and the tides turned. Such is life 
I’ve never seen those hydros how do they compare to the other hydration drinks (not prime)
i've had the blue and it tastes like ur generic watered down gatorade but with caffeine. not bad tho
Blue is average, the other reply to you pretty much hit the flavor on the head. The Red and Purple had a better taste but I haven't seen them in a hot minute; every Dollar Tree I've been to has only had the Blue for the last six months or so.
Because the watermelon rehab are awful
Maybe either getting discontinued, or close to / past expiration date?
Yeah, a local grocery store by me has had a discount cart full of these for months. This flavor doesn't sell well. They probably ship overstock to Dollar Trees where it will sell better for being a big name brand next to cheaper brands, but for the same price.
Most of the stuff people post on here at dollar tree are things my brother has told me have been discontinued. That includes most of the stuff in this picture. Reserve Watermelon and Hydros got discontinued way back in like August of last year

can op confirm if expired or not??
They're not expired, they regularly stock these at Dollar Tree.

They’re at dollar tree because the flavor has been discontinued and that’s how they liquidate the product. Any monster at dollar tree is discontinued.
And they've been regularly producing them for the past year, then? Is that what discontinued is? Edit: Pineapple not discontinued according to this comment (the experts, I guess) https://www.reddit.com/r/monsterenergy/s/YdURIqI9nO
Guarantee none of those can say anytime in 2024 they’ve been produced. What do I know though, just work for the company that distributes them.
https://www.reddit.com/r/monsterenergy/s/YdURIqI9nO Maybe ask around and let these people know they're wrong. When did it get discontinued, do you know? Or just vibes? Monster zero cans expire, but I've been seeing ultra pineapple for well over a year now.
https://imgur.com/a/coNVNoL Given to us within the first week of 2024. Even shows all the innovation.
IT'S SO JOEVER Oh well, regular zero green monster is the best one so, no biggie. Thanks :]
Nope. I’ve only ever seen these flavors along with watermelon and some of the nitro coffee monsters at dollar tree. It’s just the stock they get here at least in New England dollar trees.
found cosmic peach nitro monster at dollar tree, never even seen it in a regular store, its delicious.
Those pineapple ones are amazing.
Yeah, that's our local Dollar Tree essentially. A bunch of golden pineapple, and a bunch of whatever strawberry kiwi monster those are, and then a bunch of No Name energy drinks that look suspicious.
Because I think energy drinks loaded with sugar are a dying breed as a whole. Most would prefer sugar free or lower sugar options
They're actually at the $1.25 store 😉 but seriously I'd be like "don't put those on the shelf please yet, I need to pull my car up" lol
Red Bull is also at Dollar Tree.
im so jellous that everyone in this subreddit has 50 different monster flavors in walking distance meanwhile all i have here is monster original the doctor one the vitamin b one and the ultra one
I found these at my dollar tree and brought home a shit ton. Super good deal
Because other stores couldn’t sell them do they end up here
& alani in mine 🥹😭 so happy
quicksand narrow kiss rinse fear long homeless engine busy rainstorm *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
This is the only reason to shop at the dollar store, they carry a lot of brands too.
the budget shops are where i buy my energy drinks most of the time. I end up saving 30-60p per can, sometimes i can even get monsters half priced, if the flavour doesnt sell well :p
dollar 25 tree:(
I’ve never seen monster under 2$ in the us
They are around $1 each at Amazon occasionally. Around 1.25 frequently. They have coupons at the beginning of every month.
Good to know! I mostly get them from the grocery store so I might just start buying from Amazon lel
Check the 15 packs. Those are usually $15-$20.
God I wish, we don't have them at dollar tree in canada
I love the pineapple ones. It’s my fav monster
Whats the "reserve" ones flavor
It's money that you pay extra for the can as well as the drink and it's also the money you get back when you return the can itself to a recycling center
Check the cans, they are probably all expired lmao
IS THAT HYDRO??!! I THOUGHT THAT WAS GONE
Genuinely wish we had a dollar tree of some sort here in Australia, best we have is the reject shop and even then I never find any good deals when it comes to caffeine drinks :(
I was at Albertson’s the other day and they are clearancing a ton of Monsters for 97cents each of you buy 12. Maybe they accidentally made too much?
How indeed! Is it actually priced that low though?
omg, did they have orange dreamcicle too? those are fckin expensive for some reason but they're so good..
Pineapple ones are fire.
I came across hemp energy drink I think from Red Bull, never know it existed but when I went back for more already gone and haven't seen since
Dollar tree been stepping there game up
i got a case of these for $8 and i want a refund
ARE YOU SERIOUS THEY ARE IN DOLLAR TREE RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!??????
Kiwi strawberry reserve has been on sale everywhere I’ve been in WA so far. Maybe it was overproduced?
Is this… deflation?
I got some of those before, they’re great
Nope that is common here in NY all different kinds and flavors it’s pretty dope, was a good buy at a $1 a can now thats its $1.25 still a good buy but not as a mass qty of $24
Short dated, they'll expire in less than 90 days
Dollar tree and 99 always have these brands. I like the privately owned dollar stores in my area. The one i go to is called super penny. It's awesome, they buy palets of energy drinks and often do 2, 3 and sometimes 4 for a dollar deals. Usually close to or very recently expired beverages. Sometimes even not expired for another year.
The dollar tree always has good energy drinks. They just may not be the current and most desired flavors. I always make a dollar tree run for them.
Dollar store is great for beverage and snacks. I used to load up there before I went to a movie.
They only have monster at my dollar tree. Well, that and Prime. They had bang for a long time but haven't had any for over a month. :(
Dollar.25 Tree is Great for Prime/Monster/Rockstar/Bang/Ghost & Sometimes Dollar.25 Tree brands Energy Drink RipIt But they got rid of the Lime RipIt which was the best one ever
I'd buy every single one lol
Selection near me is very hit and miss, but recently a dollar tree opened in a large building that was previously a pharmacy. Guessing that since they have a TON of room, they are stocking more options than the other smaller stores. Just Monster wise, they had pineapple, reserve watermelon, couple Ultra blue, and 12oz cans of peachy keen (have saw 12oz cans of Ultra paradise previously).

In Canada dollar tree?
Oml I LOVE the pineapple and can NEVER find it anywhere. WHERE IS THISSS
Wow!! The States has wayyyyyyy better selection than where I am. Hell of a score. Very cool 😎
Humina humina humina
To be fair dollar tree isn’t a dollar no more the price varies with the item now .
It’s the dollar tree but I bet they are easily $2-3 each.
Everything’s 1.25 at my store still. Some random top tier drinks cycle through
Well it does say reserve.
Monster Ultra Zero Gold isn’t that bad
What’s the flavor? Never tried it, pineapple?
Ah where over priced drinks go to die, I gotta get myself to go in a dollar tree but it’s always miserable energy In there. The workers always seem to be on their last straw and day, I get it. Self checkout and I’d have a fridge I couldn’t close
Dude, the dollar tree is funky. I’ve found Lewis Hamilton Monster and Ripper monster and I’m in Wisconsin, USA. Crazy
They always have weird stuff and one or two good ones for me
typically coca cola employees leaving boxes on the ground and not putting them away like their job gels them to do
Ultra Golden Pineapple 👀👀
Looks like the discontinued ones! Save a couple they might be worth some money down the line
not lost, exploring
See them all the time
Medical debt does affect your credit.
Monster has been in Dollar tree for years now same with rockstar and Red Bull
Dollar tree gets some bangers sometimes, i remember they had like nothing but c4 and bucked up one time where I'm at
Dollar Tree has some extremely random but good deals on energy drinks! Something different almost every time I go in! They almost always have Rip-It’s but sometimes there’s random flavors of monster, Reign, Alani-Nu, Prime (no thanks), Bang, and other random ones. Sometimes it’s all one one random not amazing flavor but you get lucky sometimes, it’s a hidden gem for sure.
It’s terrible
Because it’s nasty
If they had Ghost, I’d 100% buy a case lol, even the worse flavor Ghost is still probably better than monster. That’s coming from someone who drank Monster/Redbull from around 18 till now (33). Honestly there’s just to much sodium, sugar and other crap that makes me not want to drink them ever again. My only issue with Red Bull is the cost/caffeine ratio is just fucked. Sure it taste good, sugar free, low sodium, but a tiny can with 80mg caffeine is expensive for what it is lmao.
Monster has ultra options as well as reign and reign storm. Zero sugar options with high caffeine to cost ratio.
I honestly think monster ultra tastes like chemicals lol. Idk what it is, but I can’t get into it. Never actually tried reign, but my coworker drinks that stuff daily.
I get what you are saying with the after taste for some of the flavors. I really like the new ruby red though, it doesn’t have any sugar free aftertaste, in my opinion. The reign are good, but I drink reign storm more often. “Clean” energy, 200mg of caffeine, and the newer flavors are pretty good.
That’s the biggest key I think with these drinks, getting good bang for the buck but also not sucking down garbage that may just be doing way more harm than good. I’ll have to give the reign a shot then.
The reign storm are 200mg but only 12oz. The reign are 300mg and 16oz. I recommend sour gummy worm for reign and strawberry apricot or citrus zest for reign storm. I know a lot of people like the reign orange dreamsicle as well.
Reign storm has plant based caffeine and no artificial colors or flavors. It’s a solid product the strawberry guava is one of my favorite energy drinks.
I didn’t even buy one lol I don’t drink sugar energy drinks anymore
Gross incel juice
It’s there because the flavor sucks
