Nah, I'm sure they have a team of bean-counters and efficiency experts that can tell you how much the company saves if a customer takes 1 napkin instead of 2.

I dont care bout most of the over-priced items but textbook prices are fucking ridiculous, if tuition wasn't enough for students to bare, they mark up the textbooks and change editions every fucking 2 semesters so you people have to buy new, can't even sell the old ones anymore

| I never understood how bottle water companies make money here in BC.
It's like selling sand to somebody who lives in the desert .
The ignorance/laziness/stupidity of people really amazes me.

I've read somewhere that cellular phone companies make huge profits from SMS's. It barely costs them anything and they can charge one sms for $0.50 or more.

Napkins cost us 3 cents each. Places like Mcdicks now the price of everything down to the last cent. A frozen unfinished donut costs a Tim Hortons franchise owner 17.9 cents.

Depending which pop it was, they use a ratio of 5:1 (5 Water: 1 Syrup). Coke was I think 4.75:1. Sprite was 5:1
So a 20L box will produce approximatley 100L of pop roughly

Fyi there is no ban on outside foods in theatres. I've walked in with starbucks cups or McFood, or even my own.
Theatres are not "primary food service establishments", the requirement for being protected under that whole "you're not allowed to bring outside food into a restaurant" rule. Because they provide the service of entertainment (a movie) they can't claim to be food service provider. There are no signs anymore that say "no outside food or drink allowed".
And if there are, I haven't seen them, nor have I been stopped going through the box office, getting my ticket checked, etc etc etc. Posted via RS Mobile | |
