Free refills are a privilege to recent patrons and only recent patrons, as in those who actually pay to get food or drink.

It's like pouring 'free sugar' into your $1 coffee cup and purchasing that instead of buying sugar, which is more expensive.

Personally, from a business perspective it's a great idea to have free soda refills. It costs pennies on the dollar to serve sugar water to fat retards, and people who do what the nigger in OP's pic does are so uncommon it's a non-problem.

Its a good courtesy which increases customer satisfaction, and the sugar content and empty calories keeps them coming back for more food. It's a nice little incentive for fatties to keep coming back, and it keeps them fat so they're stuck in a endless cycle of consumption.

tl;Dr It's not a right but it's a great business practice for the practical capitalist.

>> No.9414570

Free refills trick dumb people into consuming too many calories because they think they aren't "getting their money's worth" if they don't consume a liter of cola in one sitting. If you payed for unlimited refills it's your right to get type 2 diabetes, it's a free country

I don't believe this. The syrup is cheap but still profitable for exclusivity rights, but giving it away for free doesn't make sense except in large corporate chains that can afford and are being charged.

If the soda fountain is behind the counter, inaccessible to the customers, a charge is not only acceptable but practically necessary to the workflow.

It is a privilege. Not even McDonald's "HAS" to give out unlimited free re-fills. It isn't hurting their bottom line at all to do so but they could just as easily charge you .25 cents per re-fill if they wanted to and people would totally pay. and since they have raised prices on a lot of their menu items, they kind of are charging us. Even still, it IS a privilege and even tho no one will likely stop you from doing like OP's pic, everyone will judge you from a distance and consider you a cheap ass pice of human waste if you do that.

If you need a gallon of shitty "fruit punch" so bad an only want to pay a dollar for it, shop at the .99 cent store. You probably do already anyway.

I used to work at Taco Bell and take drink cups or tell them to dump their drinks into the well, because fuck you for being disrepectful. It's even dumber when they say they didn't know or thought they were under the clearly labeled "water" fountain.
