I could buy this soda right up til around 2000. Still have tons of empty bottles and wooden crates. As a kid and later as an adult you would go into the store pick up a wooden crate and pick (mix and match) your favorte flavors!

there was a town club building in warren, MI almost right were I grew up. everytime we drove by it my dad always had to tell a story about how it was only 5 cents and BLAH BLAH BLAH. never tried it. i was hooked on new york seltzer

I purchased Towne Club tonight at the local Sav Mor Pharmacy in Gibraltar, MI. It is now in a plastic 24oz bottle, still with a variety of flavors. Each bottle has a various picture of Detroit, for eg. Creme Soda has a pic of the Belle Isle Aquarium. No more pry off glass bottles and wooden crates that as a child I vividly remember. Also going to the Towne Club store in Lincoln Park, MI to swap out crates and flavors. The bottle states "Bottled By: Towne Club Bev. Corp. Detorit Michigan 48203 Still cheap, $.79 plus $.10 MI deposit of course. Pick one up they are still delicious.....

There was a Towne Club store in Livonia too. It was on Middlebelt at 8 mile. Towne Club was always a staple at big family gatherings, but my folks never kept it in the house, which always meant I'd get filled up on the stuff every time we'd gather at my aunt's place. I was like Forrest Gump at The White House, only with Towne Club.

Great pop, in fact I just had one earlier with lunch. You can find it still, but it's pretty much limited to the Detroit area.

I remember as a child I would go to the local town club store and have a field day picking all the flavors. I watched a complete crate of Town club sell at a auction for $250. I wish I still had my crates and bottles.

It had to be the early seventies. Every Sat morning Dad would head up to the Towne Club store in Madison Heights, MI. Us kids knew what he was up to and begged to ride along so we could pick out our favorite flavors. I've since moved away from MI but glad to hear it's still available.

i grew up in jenison mi and my grandfather owned a shop called banner pool. on the other side, right inside his store, was a tons of the crates of glass bottles to choose from! what a great memory!

Well as far as childhood memories go, town club pop had to be one of my favorites. Pretty much I think the concept is still a good idea and I think a lot of people would drive like we use to just for the experience. With prices rising and companies everywhere slowly shrinking the size of our products, consumers tend to return to good ole ideas that are offer the people something real. Town club soda was something else. I was sad to come home to find they were gone from Wyoming, Mi. I would like to see them come back here.....along with the wooden crates and the bottles all stacked up so that I could once again go along and chose what flavor I wanted and how many of them for a wonderfully not inflated price. Thanks to those wonderful people who brought us Town club in the first place. Heres hoping someone thinks this is a good idea and thinks up a way of bringing this idea back.

The original Towne Club Pop plant was on Dequindre Rd in Warren, 2 blocks south of 9 Mile Rd. at Ghoulson (sic?), and their bottles were labeled as ether O-So or Towne Club. I think that O-So may have been a predsessor of Towne Club. They moved, probably about 1970 to a location on Ryan Rd, still in Warren, a block north of 10 Mile. Going to Fitzgerald Public Schools, field trips to the Towne Club Bottling Plant on Ryan were very common. The plant on Ryan closed in the late 1970's, I believe.

There was a store in Sterling Heights too on the corner of what was then Van Dyke and Clinton River I believe (today it is Van Dyke and Canal). I also remember the wooden crates, going with dad and sister to pick out our favorites.

Found two liters of Towne Club at Produce Palace near 12 and Dequindre and at the Walgreens at Hamlin and Rochester as of August 2009. Will it start showing up in more places, I wonder? The grape soda and the city punch are very good. If they made it with sugar I think it would be a good Jones Soda rival.

I loved Towne Club, on our way up to our cottage, just 1hrs away in Davison, MI we used to shop at the TOWNE CLUB store... and there was a dollar store at 10 vandyke a few years back that had a few flavors of Towne club in the wooden crates...i havent been there, so im not sure if they still have any.. But I did come across plastic bottles of 2 liter Towne Club at Walgreens 13 hoover last year. they got rid of them. jones soda wasnt a seller either. what they dont know!
