    the main reason i even go to chains like mcdonalds in the first place is the soda fountain. it’s (usually) much better than retail product in bottles or cans.

    if i have to wait 10 minutes to maybe (they will have zero incentive to wait on you) get a refill, after already waiting 10-30 minutes for my food in the first place (wait times have gotten really bad the last few years… for “reasons”). i won’t even go there anymore at all unless i’m traveling (which i don’t really do much of either). the ridiculous and constant price increases already got me down from a once-a-week treat to maybe once every month or two.

      I find the wait times have gone up as they prioritise both drive thru and delivery options ahead of people actually at the counter.

      it’s actually because they dont want you to go there and buy stuff if you buy stuff then they have to spend money to restock stuff and that hurts profits!
