Beverage titan Coca-Cola, eager to improve flat sales of carbonated beverage Vault, is hoping to win over consumers with a campaign that employs a tried-and-true tactic: free drinks.
Although Pepsi-owned (and recently renamed) Mtn Dew carries as much as 80 percent of the market share for citrus soda, Coca-Cola's three-year-old citrus cooler Vault, with four percent of the market share, has fizzled with customers. Hoping to turn the tides for Vault, Coca-Cola will soon begin its "Don't Dew It" campaign.

I'm a huge fan of the Italian designer Roberto Cavalli, so imagine my surprise when I heard he was designing Coca-Cola Light bottles! The limited-edition bottles, which come in three seductive, feminine styles, will be sold in Italy from September to December. While my favorite is the leopard print bottle, I would love to get my hands on any of the animal printed designs.

I have a confession to make: if I didn't worry about what my friends and family would say to me, I'd probably drink soda all day, every day — I love it that much.

Good news for you soda fountain lovers: Coca-Cola plans to introduce a machine that dispenses 100 flavors.
The new unit, which will reportedly have a beta launch in early 2009, will remain the same size as an eight-valve soda machine by using highly concentrated ingredients to store more beverages. According to the company, switching in a new drink for the 100-flavor units will be "as easy as changing a print cartridge."
