I have to agree with you that the whole Soda Stream model makes no
monetary sense to me.
My kids and I don't find the cola taste from coke all that much different
from the Soda Stream taste - so I don't think they have an edge on taste.
So, about the only thing that the Soda Stream can sell on, at least to
me, would be on price or on convenience.
I figured I'd have the price part licked by building my own carbonation
machine (which was a fun and super easy project) - but the syrup is now
the stumbling block.
I'm still working off the leads you guys gave to lower the price of the
syrup - but your store has it for the exact same price as Bed Bath &
Beyond did - so that's the biggest snag for me.
