Have you ever ordered a fountain soda without ice so that you get more soda?!
Have you ever ordered a fountain soda without ice so that you get more soda?
I do this sometimes, but a friend of mind says this is rude..what do you think?
Answers:
It's not rude at all. Fountain soda is dirt cheap for them. They're making a killing off of the soft drinks...it's no skin off their nose if every so often someone orders no ice...it's a preference...kinda like no cheese or extra pickles on your burger.
I like the idea.
Of course chico!
The fountain drinks are already cold so the ice just waters it down. I sometimes take ice to eat after.
Why is it rude. It's already cold who needs a lot of ice!
I have done this partly to get more soda but also because I don't like the way the ice waters down the taste of the soda. You are perfectly right to do this. You are buying a 16 oz cup of soda not a 16 oz cup of ice so don't feel bad about asking for them to actually put soda in your cup.
I always order drinks with no ice because my biggest pet peeve is watered down pop, and in most establishments that servee fountain drinks you have access to free refills anyways so I don't believe it is rude at all.
lol weird maybe but not rude......
you get it cold regardless of no ice so, yea, it's cool to order without ice (no pun intended).
when i was younger..
It's not rude. Most places actually fill the cup almost entirely with ice so you don't even get half of your 16, 18, 20 ounces.
Some people don't like supercold soda.
I say 'easy ice' all the time and they don't blink an eye.
thats what we usually do. it's okay because your paying for it anyway. they'll just probably think that you've got and achin' teeth so you're avoiding cold drinks.
no
its not rude! The reason they put ice in it is so they can serve less soda and save more money
No. I always have to have ice in my soda because the ice keeps it cool and plus I like to sometimes chew ice.
I will often order it without ice...the sodas are usually cold enough without it. I don't like SUPER cold soda. It's not rude - a customer should be able to get what he/she wants!
i have - i cant stand it when the place charges $2 for a cup of ice with a splash of soda
Every time I order a soda at Sonic I ask for no or lite ice, they never think anything of it and always accommodate my order. It's no different than ordering a burger without onions.
Yes, I do it all the time :)
It might be dishonest, but I never missed the ice.
