Is it ok to fill an McDonalds Ice Coffee Cup with Soda?

628 181 October 23, 2012 at 02:54 PM in Grocery
So its been bugging me but I dunno if someone could answer this.

My friends and I like to hang out at a McDonalds because we're hooked on the Iced Coffee as its cheap.

I typically order a large Ice coffee but sometimes I finish it early. I went to fill it with soda and a lady (another fellow customer) gave me a comment about how I shouldn't be doing that and should purchase a fountain drink cup (McDonalds has that $1 any size fountain drink going on)
I ignored her but its been bugging me.

Is it appropriate to just empty the left-over ice out of the cup and fill it with something from the Self-Serve Fountain Drink dispenser? (I understand its ok if I fill it with water)

What do you guys think?

The force is dark with this one.

They came for the soda, but I shun carbonation, so I said nothing.
Then they came for the coffee, but I do consume the brew of the bean, so I said nothing.
They came for the tea, but I am not a tea drinker, so I said nothing.
When they came for my milk, there was no one left to say anything.

So either get a regular coffee or tell them you want an iced coffee with no ice and a cup for water. Then walk over to the soda fountain and grab all the ice you need.

For example, who started the idea that you can bring in your sunglasses or eyeglasses that you bought 1-2 yrs ago and expect it to be repaired for free? Yes, it's a sensitive subject for me!laugh out loud But, I don't think in any other consumer product out there in the market do ppl expect wear and tear to be covered for that long.
I think it's pretty nice that my local optical shop does this. I came in fully expecting to pay, but they said they were happy to do it for free. Then again, I am paying 4-5x the cost of Costco and several hundred times the cost of Zenni.

Why do you think I keep coming back?

Iagree

I'm an optician and we do it for free too. I don't have a issue with doing minor repairs as a courtesy. It makes people happy and then when it is time for them to buy they will hopefully remember us.


z2g are you a optician, ophthalmologist or optometrist?
