This one is fun for kidshows.  You mention how thirsty you are, how you could really use a soda.  You show a paper bag with rope handles, turn it upside down and tilt it toward the audience so they can see nothing is inside.   "I could drink any kind of soda...EXCEPT ORANGE.  I can't stand Orange soda!"    You have the kids say the magic words and you reach in and pull out a bottle of soda -- Fanta Orange Soda!   You set the bottle on your table, and after telling the kids not to think about Orange soda, you get them to say the magic words again, and you reach in to the bag...  Another bottle of Orange soda.   You keep going, getting more and  more frustrated, as you produce SIX bottles of Orange Soda.   I usually finish by producing one more bottle -- this time it is my favorite, Coca Cola (or whatever).   I cover the Orange bottles with the bag and crack open the bottle of Coke for a refreshing sip.

The bag can be shown empty between each bottle production, and so the effect can also be used as a running gag between tricks.  

As you may have guessed, or maybe can see in the photo, there are some angles to watch with this trick   I have used my own set of these production bottles for birthday living room shows, but the trick is best suited for larger kidshow venues than the living room -- better for larger rooms like libraries, schools etc.   

You get the specially gimmicked bottles, the gimmicked bag, and a special thin black "stand" which remains unseen on your table to securely display the bottles after production.       None of the Orange bottles can contain liquid, which is why I recommend a final production of a contrasting bottle of soda that you can open and take a drink from.   (The Orange bottles look very realistic, but if you produced a real bottle of Orange Fanta, they would look less real in direct comparison.  So a contrasting soda flavor is best).

The bottles are about 8.5 inches tall.   

The typical selling price on this set ranges from $130 to $180.   I got one at a great closeout price so you can get it here for less.   :-)
