You get free refills? :evil: :evil: :evil:

 

We have to pay like 50 cents... :( :cry:

Heh, stopped drinking sodas with food at like age 11... You'll find it pretty easy to get free water refills at any place or restaurant.

 

 

 

Try it yourself.. Water actually compliments the taste of any good food. You don't need a sugary pitch black calorie bomb down your throat to enjoy a meal. Water rocks. (No, I'm not a hippie/environment nut)

 

 

 

Also knowing it purifies your body is mentally assuring. A huge glass of coke doesn't hydrate nearly as good.

^ but when im at a resturant im not drinking to rehydrate, im drinking for something to wash the food down and actually have a taste. i don't like water because theres no flavor but i probably wont get more than 2 refills of soda

 

 

 

the way i see it, the company cant get mad at someone because they are getting multiple refills, put the machine in the back or put up a sign that says "2 refills max", but people cant also be expecting to walk away with 3 large cokes in their belly for the price of a small, if you really need one for the road stop at a gas station and get a 20oz. or something

Yeah water does wonders most of the time. I think soda is like a dessert among the beverage-world. Sometimes it's okay to be a little gluttonous though. You only live once after all. Look at the holiday Thanksgiving. It's a day where you're encouraged to indulge.

 

 

 

As for weight - I'm one of the lucky few who have a really high metabolism. So that argument doesn't really affect me.

 

 

 

As for the seven deadly sins - anger is also a sin. So is pride. Almost everyone sins constantly without knowing it. Just because it's a small act of gluttony, that doesn't make it wrong in my eyes. Consider the African American Pride Month. An African American who partakes in their share of pride could be considered a sinner. I think the seven deadly sins are far too broad and general to just add onto an action and call it "immoral".

At the subway here, the guy is such a douche bag about refills. Before he worked there, we used to go down sometimes on a friday and catch a movie, so we bought a stack of 200 subway cups on ebay for like $17, so we could always get free drinks, and the employees never had a problem about it.

 

 

 

Then, a few weeks ago, I finish eatin the sub, I walk JUST outside the door, decide to get a refill, go back in, and he says "you can't refill if you've left the premises."

 

 

 

I was like WOW, epitome of douche. Why would he even care? So now, everytime I go I get jalapenos simply because they're the most expensive item that subway purchases. And I don't even like them.

Them be rules ;)

Considering it costs the store 15 cents for one glass of pop, you're very justified in having 5+ refills.

I wish we could refill our own drinks at every place. They all have it behind the counter :(

Personaly I feel entitled to a refil once I am done and am leaving (why would I stay in a fast food resturant?). I guess you could sit there, drink it, refil and repeat, but I dont see why you would. Just because you can does not mean you should.

That guy was probably doing some pretty odd substances.

 

 

 

I'd say any amount. I like to pull our multiple bottles, and funnels and fill up many things at the same time. All on my little $3.00 medium size. Works every time.

Soda is dirt cheap to them I'm pretty sure.

 

 

 

You could refill it until your bladder burst and they'd still make a profit on the price of one cup.

Unlimited refills for the duration you are in the restaurant. If they wanted to reduce the number of times ppl refilled then they'd stop using waxed cups and have them plain paper based. They probably wont last more than 1 or 2 refills before falling apart lol. Plus they are better for the environment ^_^

My friend used to get hungry jacks cups off the side of the road, wash them, go into the shop and get free drinks. But honestly, i would never sink that low.

What's that sin called...oh ya, gluttony!

 

 

 

Surely false advertising is a sin?

 

 

 

To be honest, if I saw someone give me a mean look like that I would take one more refill, on the house. 8-)

 

 

 

so would I

 

 

 

 

 

(off topic)

 

I just love your avvy, it always makes my day go to :D :lol:

If there's a Free Refills sign, I'll drink until I'm not thirsty, but that's not much, usually 1-2 Medium cups. And then I refill it before I go. If they say Free Refills, I'm not gonna pass up such a good opportunity, since the nearest one is like, 2h drive away. :lol:

If you have free refills, don't waste it!

Langzor is weak of constitution.If there's free refill I will drink like 3-4 LARGE (the biggest cup they have) cups of it,and fill it when I leave.

 

 

 

Erm false advertising isn't a sin,its just illegal.The sins are "deadly" lol.

 

 

 

Gluttony,I don't really care about.I'm thin enough to pass that.I'm scared of Sloth or Wrath.Good thing I don't have a religion eh?

No, I'm just weak of stomach. :(

 

 

 

Oh, wait... what does constitution mean? :lol:

Sip stealing: not a felony in any of the 50 states. :

 

 

 

As half the people on this thread have said, the store owner shouldn't care. its not coming out of his paycheck.

 

 

 

You're paying for the drinks, might as well get your money's worth. now while its always preferred that you only take the drink you need so as not to look greedy, there's nothing wrong with a refill for the road.

 

 

 

There are worse freeloaders out there. I was at a theatre once that offered free popcorn refills if you buy the large bucket. so one family decided to buy one bucket and bring a paper bag for each family member. the father bought the bucket, filled some of the bags, went back and got a refill, filled them more, then got a refill for himself and his wife. Cheap or smart? it does sound like a pretty good money saver to cut your budget for a movie. combine this with the free drinks and you've got a total budget for a family of five of $6 for your snack and drinks. and then there are the true freeloaders who come into fast food places with their own cups, fill their own drinks for free, and maybe buy a meal and walk out. They didn't pay for that fill.

Constitution-The stat in D&D that increases hitpoints.You know,you roll against Cons for drinking.

 

 

 

Generally,its used for frail guys,but I like to make you sound weak.

I personaly think that if they say unlimited with no "*" to state that theres a catch it should be aslong as you are there.

 

But think that justified is about 2-3 And whilst eating ..

When I go to places with free refills I eat salads.

Well, anything over 2 refills is being a bit greedy.

 

 

 

If you're that damn thirsty, then drink water, its alot more hydrating.

 

 

 

Hell, you should be able to excercise control. If its an all you can eat, then don't eat til you puke, eat enough so you don't feel like crap and want to puke.

This thread reminds me of the time me and 6 friends ate over 100 slices of pizza at pizza hut and washed it all down with pepsi by the pitcher :

Drinks that they sell for $3-5 costs cents to make. It's their job to take our money, it's our job to save as much as possible.
