Cold cups
Gotta fill me in on this. Some sort of frozen koolaid treat in a cup? Then why didn't she buy cups? Or popsicle sticks? And it's February, not June.
And why buy the entire stock, especially when it's not on sale and not even that cheap?

We dyed a fpuntain in high school with 50 packets of kool aid.
You think she dyed some 20 odd fountains?
It's maddening me

So they could get two more and have 1,150?

Okay, but wouldn't this be a massive amount? I mean how much is needed per batch and how much is in 1148 packets?
Why wouldnt you just buy the cups of koolaid mix?

I haven’t bought Kool-Aid packets since they were $.25. Inflation took another.

Neighbor should have invited her to the pool party..... he'll pay dearly now.

Since when is jungle juice made with koolaid? We made ours with Hawaiian Punch...which it looks like they used in your picture
Again...if they were making a massive drink it seems like they would have used something else

There’s a “foot washing” this weekend somewhere is my guess.

That’s a lot of Kool-Aid! Here are some possible reasons someone might buy 1,148 packets:
Fundraiser – Selling individual Kool-Aid packets at events or as part of a community fundraiser.
Business Use – A small business making Kool-Aid-based drinks, snow cones, or flavored treats.
Art Projects – Kool-Aid can be used as a dye for fabrics, hair, or even craft projects.
Science Experiments – Used in chemistry experiments, pH testing, or educational activities.
Bulk Party Supply – A massive party or event that needs a ton of drink mix.
Survival Stockpile – Someone prepping for long-term storage of flavoring for water.
Novelty Use – A YouTuber or TikToker planning a viral stunt, like filling a pool with Kool-Aid.
Charitable Donations – Giving to shelters, schools, or food banks.
Did you see someone actually buying that much, or are you just curious?

Starting a freezie operation…. Maybe?

i saw a video where people were doing self checkout and scanning those while bagging something else...idk maybe an elaborate shop lifting scheme
Posted on 3/5/25 at 3:52 pm to Topwater Trout
This wasn't self checkout. The clerks scanned every single one, hence the ridiculously long receipt

Did they use EBT for the purchase? That's a helluva lot of Kool-Aid, but *only* cost them $447.72 plus tax.
FWIW, Grok doesn't know why either but suggests the most likely reason is "to make a large quantity of the drink for a significant number of people, such as at a festival, summer camp, or for a business. This could involve serving thousands at a single event or providing drinks over weeks or months for a group, leveraging Kool-Aid’s affordability and ease of preparation."
