Thought i'd apply my incredible business plan/marketing concept to a few more beverages to maybe rule out a few more numbers. So after Sprite:
Capri Sun costs 71p, Vimto costs 45p, Lucozade costs 76p.

Well since there isn't really enough numbers to make a pattern I'm trying a few things. Basically since you said the names don't matter I assumed it's a find the next number in sequence. Most are simple addition/subtraction alternating the exact number and sometimes varying. So with 38 66 33 52. You get add 28 minus 33 add 29... so next one you can assume is either minus 34 or minus 32. Also interestly enough 52 is dead center of the first 2 numbers so the next one might also be something crazy like the average of number 2 and 3

I never said the names don't matter, they are infact quite important. I simply said I was using random names, as im unable to remember the names used when i heard this.

Where the hell are you living? This is 2009, not 1995.

Fair cop. Lucozade is well over a pound now, its an outrage. It is however a numbers game, not a stocktake

Well random implies not important! So I doubt the names are quite so random.

Yeah I guess so. I just saw that and thought "Wtf?" At my local shop a small Lucozade is £1.16, a Capri Sun is £1.05, and a Vimto... Wtf is that?

Well really just cause you made decisions off the cuff doesn't make them random there are reasons. However this implies that you picked the names first and fitted the numbers to it IF the names really do matter otherwise it wasn't so random!

The letter "e"?
There is a word in the english that is nine letters long. Everytime you remove one letter it is still a word, all the way down to the last letter, what word is it?
That one's been done. :P
It's startling. :P

Theres an alarming amount of googling going on in here. So heres mooshie with a math problem.
A newsagent sells cans of drink. Coke costs 38p, Dr Pepper costs 66p, Lilt costs 33p and Sprite costs 52p. How much does Tango cost?
I'm off to lunch. You've got an hour

I don't have an answer, but It's amusing that if you try and google that, it brings you straight to this forum.
