After it was discovered that Wakey Wines in the UK was selling Prime energy drinks for more than £24 a bottle, the company might find itself in legal problems.
YouTube stars KSI and Logan Paul’s Prime Hydration have been flying off the shelves since it was introduced. The popular beverage has become difficult to get, and some vendors are profiting from the situation.
Although the popular beverage is widely accessible in the United States, it is only sold at ASDA supermarkets in the United Kingdom. As a result, there are no limits on the beverage’s price and quantity.
Is Wakey Wines in jail? Now, where is the owner?

Regarding the proprietor of Wakey Wines’ arrest, there has been no official announcement. We must wait to see whether they experience repercussions for what they did.
After sharing a Tiktok video in which a young girl was charged £145 for six bottles of Prime energy drink, Wakey Wines, a newsstand in Wakefield, Yorkshire, England, was named “the U.K.’s most expensive newsagents.”
The video on TikTok featured Millie Hazelgrave, a Castleford resident who had driven to the shop only to get the beverage.
She is shown being charged £145 by the Wakey Wines employees for six bottles (more than £24 a bottle), which she gladly pays in cash. The woman paid 12 times the standard amount, which is £2 for each bottle.
Young fans, particularly teens, are in a frenzy over the well-known energy drink that KSI and Logan Paul co-created.
A dozen blue raspberry Prime Hydration was listed on eBay for £50,000 by one vendor.
Response From KSI To The Popular Video
Wakey Wines has received criticism from KSI for overcharging for his Prime beverages. He responded to the store’s video on his TikTok.
In response to the video, KSI, a well-known YouTuber, rapper, former boxer, and co-founder of PRIME alongside Logan Paul, called it “outrageous.”’ “Wakey Wines, my man is charging people 20 quid per Prime,” he yelled.
He continued by advising customers to wait to get it from ASDA rather than shelling out these exorbitant amounts.
KSI expressed amazement at the girl’s behavior as well. He said, “Get it in Asda nice and early and pay £2.” “Why is she doing this?”
It was introduced in early 2022 and offered seven distinct tastes in 500 ml bottles, such as Lemon Lime, Tropical Punch, Ice Pop, and Blue Raspberry.
People are reportedly waiting in long lines outside ASDA shops in order to buy a bottle (or bottles) before they sell out and vanish from the shelves.
Due to the circumstance, ASDA has set a three-bottle restriction per individual. According to the Daily Star, some aficionados are spending more than £10,000 for a single bottle since the beverage is selling out in most ASDA stores.
With over 24 million YouTube followers apiece, KSI and Logan may be held responsible for the success.
Previously rival boxers, they now collaborate as business partners. The two also said in a joint statement that they “really believe the sky is the limit” now that they are both playing for the same squad.
The fact that the official PRIME Instagram account has over a million followers further indicates how popular the beverage is.
