Your wallet is under attack from Travis Scott—here’s how his latest drop could drain your bank account faster than a concert ticket resale.
The rapper's new "Cactus Jack" energy drink is hitting convenience stores nationwide at $4.49 a can, but consumer advocates warn: the real cost is the playlist. If you buy the 12-pack for a family outing, you’re paying $53.88 for what amounts to a glorified soda with a bass boost. Plus, early reviews say the taste is "overwhelmingly sweet," meaning you might need to buy more milk or water to wash it down—adding another $3 to your grocery bill. The biggest trap? Limited-edition merch bundles that pair the drink with a $70 hoodie, pushing your total to $123.88. That’s a whole week of groceries for some families. Think twice before you "Astroworld" your budget.
