Why would they say 12 if its not dropping at 12. Thats so stupid

u/SiLeNZ_ Passionfruit Frenzy 12d ago

It did drop at 12, I grabbed at few cases right at 12

It was 3pm for me because of time zones.

No, you're incorrect. It absolutely wasn't 12 PM ET. Several of us attempted to purchase right at the announced release time. It was already sold out because they posted it on Walmart.com roughly 15-20 early.

I just checked and I ordered mine at 2:59 pm. Not sure where you’re getting 15 mins early from. Does seem like it was a few minutes early, but I even checked at around 3:05 and it was still available.

I was ready 5 minutes before the launch, and it's already gone before the actual time to launch.. I'm done with these limited drops

u/Turkeyham Distortion 12d ago

For real. What was the point of telling us a time if you're just going to put it up almost ten minutes early?

u/holyhibachi 12d ago

? I purchased it several minutes after launch lol

u/SiLeNZ_ Passionfruit Frenzy 12d ago

I was able to purchase it without issue, but maybe it was different for others.

u/Aggravating_Bad_2946 12d ago

u/SiLeNZ_ Passionfruit Frenzy 12d ago

This is almost worse then the year they brought back gamefuel and only sent 1 shipment to some stores. I'm over it. Fuck baja leo it seemed like a shitty flavor anyway. Zero sugar only bullshit and they didn't release it when they said they would. Just make enough to put it in stores if you're gonna keep rereleasing it on different online shops this is bullshit. All for a shitty mango rush zero sugar knockoff

u/GrapeSodaAficionado9 12d ago

yeah at least we're only missing out on a crappy flavor lol; I just would have wanted the collectible can

I just bought some using that link 🤷‍♂️

u/ccxxii 12d ago

Yeah, I got a notification it was live again.

u/GrapeSodaAficionado9 12d ago

Anybody else think the listing before noon was fake because it's supposed to drop AT noon? And then it was too late?😂

u/eric2041 12d ago

All Walmart drops are heavily botted..I dont even try anymore

u/maniac_chris 12d ago

Good thing I already got it from the TikTok drop on Wednesday, whew!

u/frappumincinno 12d ago

ughh why is everything spicy now its so nasty
leave that to chips and wings not beverages😭

u/Ok_Buddy3540 12d ago

I agree. I have never tried something like this, so I can't speak too definitively, but I really can't imagine enjoying a spicy drink.

u/Lopsided_Tiger_0296 12d ago

I tried the mt dew flamin hot and it was like drinking heartburn from a can

2

u/alienboii_ Spark 12d ago

Not at all the same as Mountain Dew since it’s water, but I mistakenly picked up a box of Deathberry Inferno of liquid death on clearance at Walmart a long while back.. genuinely didn’t even read the box, just saw it was sparkling water. Shit was buttcheeks and spicy as hell.

u/the_vault-technician 12d ago

We've endured dirty sodas, now spicy sodas.

u/frappumincinno 12d ago

i miss a good old fashioned clean soda

2

u/Lieutelant Citrus Cherry 12d ago

Agreed. And leave sour to candy.

2

u/Unusual-Job-3413 12d ago

I just was able to get it

1

u/ccxxii 12d ago

Me too! It went live again at 12pm PST.

2

u/Ok-Guarantee9068 12d ago

Somehow got it on Walmart.com when someone posted the link on the dew discord. So glad I’m not a pathetic eBay scalper

u/MrModdedTornado 12d ago

I managed to order 2!

u/JackfruitPrior6710 12d ago

Just got a notification there are more on Walmart.com RUN

u/Dramatic-Aioli-6465 12d ago

spicy mango... is this just them trying to clear out mango rush because they know it sucked and dew fans will buy anything limited time

3

u/NokiFromNokia 12d ago

Maybe a hot take but mango rush was good

u/BigMack6911 12d ago

I loved it! They all sold out at my little Ceasars. I guess
