I am heading to Arizona to see family soon. I will be in the Phoenix area, Prescott, Grand Canyon too. Does anyone know of a good place (antique stores or flea markets) to find soda bottles? I would like to get some West Coast and Southwest ACL and embossed soda bottles for the collection. Let me know if there is a great spot to find bottles!

I am an active digger here in AZ and sometimes see bottles at antique shops. If you wanted to pick up some AZ stuff I would go to the Phoenix Bottle Club site and e-mail some of the members and see what they have in there sale/trade box.

I was in Tuscon, Arizona about twelve years ago visiting my Sister. There are quite a few antique shops in that city. My Sister took my Wife and I to one of her favorite ones one morning. As we were getting out of the car, she said to us - Now do not expect to find anything cheap in this store, everything is quite high. We were not in the store for five minutes before I came upon a pontiled scroll flask with a price sticker of twelve dollars on it. Needless to say I bought it. Told my Sister it was probably worth around 65 or 75 dollars at that time. She still does not believe me! I guess we all get lucky at least once in our lives. Am adding a picture of it with this message.
