Strangely, Decatur, IL is in the "soda" region, but my family usually says, "pop." I knew a guy from Peoria that said "sodie," no idea if that was regional or just him.
My spouse is from that central IL area and also says sodie.
We also used to talk about “booze cruises” where I’m at (northern IL), and she always knew it as “road sodez” (or something like that).
