Why did the price go from $10.38 for a 12 pack to over $16 for the same thing in less than 3 weeks?

I just bought this, 3 days ago, for $$10.38 and now its $$16.99...what in the hell!! Price gouge lately?? Most of us are in the same boat as far as this virus goes....not working, trying to stretch a dollar as far as possible and now we have to deal with crap like this. I have been a loyal customer of Amazon for over a decade, but that's about to change if they cant stand up for what's right or wrong.

does anyone know if amazon takes ebt (food stamp credit) for this product?

Yes. Acceptance of EBT is not automatically accepted just because it falls under consumption though. Make sure the seller says EBT accepted for that item. You can not choose subscribe and save however. If the item you want does not say EBT approved ( or whatever it says ) and you feel it should be simply keep looking for a seller that does accept it. Amazon grocery usually added to the item I'm looking for usually finds me someone. It was explained to me that it's Amazon that accepts it not individual sellers and sellers may opt out of accepting EBT if they choose.

Stabilize the price $10 and change to $16. (for filtered water with a drop of flavor). how much is the gold flavor?

So disappointing that this product is still so over priced on Amazon. I've been able to purchase the variety pack for $9.99. It's also being sold in my local Dollar Tree Stores for $1.00 per bottle. They both regular Hint and Hint Kick for $1.00. They have all flavors. For Amazon to sell this product at such a bloated price feels disingenuous! It feels like consumers are being ripped off. This causes me too question where I'm trusting to spending my hard earned money!

What is the natural flavor used in the watermelon drink

The other answers are correct; It could be watermelon essence or some other thing like an animal byproduct. Honestly though most of these zero sugar zero calorie drinks seem to use the essence, which is why they have barely any taste. If you want real taste that comes with a few calories and natural sugar from physical parts of the fruit. The only real flavored water I have found without any added sugar or sugar substitutes is Spindrift. It's literally made of fruit and carbonated water.

For some reason the raspberry tasted bad in this particular stock. I have had other ones not taste like that. Maybe it sits around too long. I pretty much like most of the flavors. Apple, blackberry are two of my favorites

I have been drinking this for several years I love most of the flavors. I used to purchase it at the wholesale clubs and now it's very difficult to find there. It's for those people that don't like to drink plain water it's got just enough of a hint of flavor to make you want to drink it

Alright, if you're here reading my review: THE WATER IS GOOD!! 4 or 5 star water!! Purchasing this item through Amazon? NEGATIVE STARS. The amount of times that I have tried purchasing raspberry hint water and received THE WRONG FLAVOUR is 4+ times now because the warehouses CONTINUE to mislabel the products. The sticker the warehouse uses to scan and pull products says they're raspberry...but in reality they're DIFFERENT flavours, like green apple, or grape!!! And Amazon customer service has gotten progressively worse about this issue, to the point I can't even contact them for this continuous error. I'm so sick of the negligence and inability to actually CONTACT ANYONE about refunds or replacements!!! Zero stars, if I could, on the fulfillment centers AND on Amazon's """customer support""" (or lack thereof). Ultimately: beware of this flavour, as you may get a different one by surprise! You're not allowed to have your heart set on raspberry! And you can't exchange it or even get a refund! all sales final, even when it's a mistake from the ships-and-sold-from department!! If you see it in a physical grocery store or whatever though (no longer carried in MY area, at least 💔 that's why I was here in the first place 💔) it's tasty water that feels like you washed the fruit in it, and that's why it's just a hint of flavour. It's nice! Not overpowering or sweet like Propel or ICE or mio drops or anything like that - just water that doesn't taste plain.
