    Xanax is cheaper and provides more energy, but then you have a 7 hour cooldown before you can use another. Cans/FHC's are more expensive because people still want more energy than xanax alone provides and demand dictates pricing. Edit: Not …

E cans are better because you can bosh 13*30E cans, up to 45E with faction special, giving you 585 E in a matter of seconds with no chance of overdosing, no negative side effects and no rehab fees to pay. Xanax is cheap, dirty and effective, but no match for cans in a pinch.

LSD gives 50E, and is cheap because it's mostly pointless as t has a 6-7 hour (ish) cooldown.

Edit: Not to mention voracity perks at some factions with up to +50% can effectiveness, as spliffy mentioned above.

An economic system in which trade and industry are controlled by private owners for profit, rather than by the state (also known as capitalism). Characteristics central to capitalism include private property, capital accumulation, wage labor, voluntary exchange, a price system and competitive markets.

*Items will only sell for what people are willing to pay for them.*

To truly understand the reason of the price difference you have to know that Xanax(and LSD) is much easier to come by in the wild than energy drinks and that both drugs offer a Cool Down (CD) that once activated, you are no longer allowed to take another drug until it has completed, while energy drinks on the other hand have a much shorter CD and can be used consecutively until you completely fill your Booster Cool Down.


TL;DR
~Moar drugs than cans
~Can only use 3-4 drugs per day but Cans can be used 12x a day
~Supply and demand
