At my company there are three kitchens that are stocked to the brim with sodas and seltzer waters. They're there for us and we're allowed to have as many as we want.
Prior to leaving the office I'll make a pit stop to the kitchen and will fill up my water bottle, but on more than one occasion I've put a can of soda in my backpack and have taken it home with me.
Is it chintzy of me to do so? I mean, it's true that the drinks are for us but deep down I feel like they're really for us during work hours.

I think as long as you're not filling a sack of them, you're ethically fine. That being said, you could find yourself in hot water if it's written somewhere that they're for you during work hours, and then find yourself on the wrong side of someone. You could be terminated for theft.
I'd trust your gut on this and leave the sodas where they are instead of stashing one for home.
