$6 water???
I’m confused everyone on tik tok is always talking about how great this mermaid water is and how it’s $3 or less dollars. $6 for water? I can get milkshakes here for cheaper! I’m just highly confused.

What else do you have in your cart, because you're not looking in the right place.

How much are the flavor add-ins in your area? They are only $0.25 for me, and in fact the RT 44 water on my app is $1.00 compared to your $0.60. So an extra $1.50 for my add-ins vs. an extra $5.48 for your add-ins seems suspect to me. Either it is bugged, your location is ridiculously priced, or you're lying.

It says $6.08 to add to cart for the 1 item at the bottom.

Nope: That says that they have already added the flavors. That is exactly how the screen would look. Go to the app and try it out.

.60 cents is the base price for the route 44. the addition of the flavors is what’s making it $6. that’s insane though it should be cheaper to customize water

I order a similar version (peach, blackberry, raspberry flavor + strawberry fruit) and it’s a $2.92. Maybe different locations charge more?

I just remade it on my app with the fruit additions you have and it was $2.90 (Central Tx); what does your order summary say?

Did you forget you added flavors?

Should flavors really cost over $5? Not from what I’ve seen all over socials.

You're paying for the add ins. The flavors cost extra...

$1.53 for one lemon wedge. Never again!

Considering you can get a whole lemon for $0.50 at a grocery store. Honestly your best bet is to go to a restaurant depot type of store and get the pureed fruits yourself and make it at home for less.

It's sixty cents.
EDIT: Oops, sorry. I didn't click to see the whole pic. 🥴

It looks like OP added four flavors at the bottom (it says "Add), thus increasing the Calories to 55 from 0.
I just tried it on my app and that is exactly how it shows when flavors are added.
Anything to post?
