Depends how closely you watch your spending on food. I'm so disconnected that I only learned just now that we have a soda tax. I will still buy my favorite sludge water without concern for the price.

Based on a 1.75 cents per ounce tax and CVS's prices, here is the increase:

20-ounce bottle of Coke: $2.50 --> $2.85.

2 liter (72-ounce) bottle of Coke: $2.70 --> $3.96.

If you drink a lot of soda, it can definitely add up.

It adds up. But not as much, percentage wise, as compared to something with less sugar in it, like iced tea.
