Also why do I receive the smallest cup possible when I order water? My thirst is just as much as those drinking soda (or pop).

Always get a small. The actual material cost of soda is like $.05. Don't feel bad.

Have any of you owned a business that serves soda?
It’s been 10 years since I have, and I can tell you it more than .05 material per drink. I think our material cost with cup was around .50-.60 per 32oz soda. That’s what Pepsi charged. Prefer coke though, but their service out here sucked.m Beer is a huge profit item. |

If you need a crazy rationale for doing the right thing, you can feel good about generating a smaller amount of trash for the landfills if you buy the smaller cup instead of a giant cup you didn't really need. |
If this is a machine that has to dispense many flavors from one spout then the big cup is mandatory.
Otherwise you have to stand there letting the soda machine flush out whatever nasty Mtn. Dew Blast that the previous person used every single time you refill your tiny ass water cup. |
Soft drinks are too expensive in restaurants. I get a free water cup and just drink water during a meal. I can then swing by a mini mart and fill my own cup for under a dollar if I want pop.

$3.00 for a large soda at BK.
The ****? |

Definitely small. Think of it this way: If you only drink half a glass do you think they’re gonna give you half your money back?

ROFL
My Wife throws a fit if we go to say, Arby's, and I order anything but a small drink...she says "Damnit old man, you can cart your ass back up there and refill your cup".. :) And she is right. The other thing that always kind of makes me a tad pissed off are these folks who stand at the fountain and fill their cups all the way up to the very top, drink a bit and fill it up over and over again. Geez folks, you CAN drink it and go back.... :shrug: |
This thread is fascinating.
Places like Arbys does a lot of volume on meal packages and when you upsize your curly fries, the drink comes with it. If your wife has a problem with large orders of curly fries you may want to consider divorce. |
i take into account how big a size i want to leave the restaurant with (on my last refill), so usually i get something bigger than a small.
