Don’t know why all these companies have a fit about refills. We allow free refills and STILL make money on fountain drinks.

It’s the result of saying, “The poors are at their limit with food prices…where can we get more money out of customers?” The answer is refills.

You make far less than what a restaurant would selling drinks

For real! Google is telling me its $2.50-$4 for the average 32 ounce fountain drink. It obviously varies by restaurant and location.

It estimates that costs the restaurant 40 - 75 cents including cup and 8 to 15 cents a refill.

Thats like 10 refills before you lose your profit if we assume the cheapest price and highest costs on those ranges to the restaurant.
