There's a handful of McDonald's that has the sign up but people still refill their sodas anyways

Is it to prevent loitering?

It's a cost issue. The pop syrups are very expensive, so when you have serial refillers, you lose a lot of money at your store.

Hey is it me or does McDonald’s hand soap have a very distinct smell. I love it LOL

arent fountain sodas pennies/ounce?!?! sure! during dollar drink days they may be vulnerable to breaking even, but losing money? plus im sure mcd gets their syrup from coke at best possible price.

Pop is where they make their profit. A medium drink costs them pennies, including the cup/lid/straw.

It has a very unique, industrial smell to it. :concentrate:

Tried the big arch last night. Nothing special, tastes like a big mac with fried onions, more meat than a quarter pounder.

Way too much sauce IMO but you get a lot of burger for the money I guess.

I've been spoiled by Chicken World and Duffin's Donuts burgers.

is it in an area that is frequented by people walking in with an old cup and filling up and making a mess?

i know some fast food places moved fountain drinks to behind the counter and i can see how it makes for a lot less headaches in this sense.

must be those damn kids at the nearby middle school. the sign went up as the school year started. i still refill my drink though, im waiting for the day they call me out.

It's October 1st, which means Monopoly starts and I'll go collect a bunch of useless properties, and show that the 1:7 odds of winning food prizes (because I'm not going to win anything else) are horribly inaccurate.

For the folks looking for a smoking hot deal on the grilled chicken sandwich combo, there are three locations that has them for $7.29

4801 Hastings Street
Brentwood Mall
Metrotown Mall

You can confirm the pricing on the McDonald's app. I first discovered the deal on RFD, but the thread has been sitting in the expired deals since August. As long as the RFD effect doesn't happen, I don't foresee these price errors going back up to regular pricing for a while.

Just had McDs for dinner and went 1 for 18 (free apple pie!), then nothing but prize draw entries on the double play.

Did they remove the grilled chicken sandwich? I don't see it on the app anymore, regardless of location... :(

Edit: never mind I found the grilled chicken. I think they fixed the price on the app…

tried the big arch too. not bad, but ya i'd say your review is pretty spot on.
don't think it's worth the $10.xx for it. rather use a coupon and get a quarter pounder or big mac

Klondike 11-05-2024 09:17 PM

Duffins and Chicken World have become my new favourite spots for big ass burgers.

A&W Masala burger was tasty, beats beyond meat burger by a mile.

McD peach pie has nice filling and that's about it. At some point, McD stopped deep frying their pies. Church's, BK, A&W and Jolibee still make them the old school way

GLOW 11-06-2024 02:37 PM

not all locations offer whatever is being promoting. i've been to the one in richmond by bcit and no peace pie, or organge milkshake or whatever is on promo. weird as it's not a mini-location.
