They give all sorts of bs reasons but I’m sure the main reason is trashy people that ask for water and steal it. I’ve even seen homeless people bring their own cup or take one from the garbage to fill it up.
Self serve, free refills are one of the biggest perks of being an American. I’ll purposely avoid eating at fast food/fast casual places that don’t have it, hardly ever go to chick Fil a.
Once again, trash ruins it for the rest of us.

I always heard that the cup costs more than the drink that goes into it.
What I hate are $5.00 Movie concession stand cups. That I buy to go with my $7.00 bucket of popcorn.

So we have 9 years to drink up. Are we saving the environment? Yank them out tomorrow.

He may, although someone who appears to eat fast food quite a bit and actually makes sure that he can get multiple refills on drinks while he’s doing so likely isn’t.

McDonald's is trashy already, so I can't help you.

By 2032, they will have fully automated stores. They will not have drink stations because it will be 100% run by AI.

Imagine trying to get a drink refill at a McDonald's. Probably not quite as pleasant as chick fila is currently.

We’ll all be dead by 2032
For those still alive, free refills at McD’s will be the least of their worries

Actually that’s not totally accurate. Studies show that people who drink diet drinks are just as likely to be obese.

It's not because they're drinking diet sodas.

Those machines are disgusting

I cannot imagine needing a refill.

I've heard the opposite, when we were in high school I had a friend work at a restaurant and the owner said that was a money maker. A $1.50 soda had something like $0.17 of cost in it. This was a while back so maybe stuff has changed.
