Your Own Single Serve Crystal Light

For years I've put one quarter of a teaspoon of any flavor Crystal Light into 8 oz of water and shook it up, instead of making a whole batch as required on the instructions. Now I see in the grocery stores Crystal Light has come out with single serve packets at 10 packets for about $4. I can't believe that! Make your own! For $4, I get a lot more out of my canister then 10 single servings. I wish I'd been the one that marketed this instead of that company. :)

I agree with Donna about using the Walmart brand. It's about $2.00 for a 10-pack box. I've been using them for a couple of years now. They are just as good as Crystal Light, and I like the convenience of the individual packs.

A variety pack is a GREAT idea! Have you submitted the suggestion to Kraft?

whoever finally decied to cash in on the single serving was genius & probably got a huge raise!

Let me tell you, if you haven't tried the Walmart brand - DO IT. It is just as good as Crystal Light and will save you a TON.

Me, too, Melissa! Something that I've been after the makers of Crystal Light to do is make a variety pack of the flavors. Where we don't have to buy a full canister to try a new flavor, only to find out that we wish we hadn't. Maybe if enough of us write them about this, they'll do it!
