As an alcoholic who used to drink two or three boxes of goon a week... Yeah, but it did also mean my alcoholism didn't break the bank. Not that that's a "good" reason for such easily available alcohol. That said, it's actually a surprisingly good money <-> calories ratio and helps you forget a mountain of debt sitting around that $45 wouldn't put a dent in.

Advising you don't do this.

Yeah honestly, goon and orange juice was a staple of uni parties in the early 2010's, until they invented Little Fat Lamb. Had friends that subsisted off of goon and mi goreng noodles for basically 4 years.
