Yup.

Me and my friends would always go to White Castle and ask for a free cup of water. We would then drink the cup of water and proceed to fill it from the fountain with a soft drink of our choice: free of charge. :) he employees caught on eventually and turned off the drink machine whenever we would come in. :roll: We had it coming I guess. :lol:

(If anybody remembers, I posted this exact same story in a similar thread a while back. :P )

Well, considering that you pay more for a cup of soda than you do for a two liter bottle of it at the store, I don't really consider it "abuse."

You can't abuse free refills because they're, well, free. You are allowed to get as many refills as you want.

[QUOTE="ch-ch-chaoguy"]Like right before you're about to leave the restaurant you go over and fill your cup back up and then leave? I do only when I get bad service, or I am really thirsty...

I don't concider that abusing the free refills, but I almost never take a cup out of a fast food restaurant. I know people who go back and fill up cups after they have left, like a day or two later, now that is abusing it.

Before I leave I fill it up, but that's usually the first refill. I have a small appetite most of the time, so one cup will suffice usually.

I usually get a regular/medium drink and I rarely get a refill. Only when I'm very thirsty do I ever go and get a refill.

I live in Australia where you don't buy the cup and fill the drink yourself. You have to order/buy the whole drink each time. But if i had the chance, sure.

I actually don't drink very much when I eat, so no. I also rarely eat out, even less so at places with refill stations.

Yes i abuse refills ALOT. I remember one time after i saw the Dark Knight i spent a whole hour drinking Coca Cola Cherry. While the Manager just stood there and looked at me like this 0_0. Then he kicked me out -_-. Everytime i go into that movie theater he shuts off the pop machines when he sees me.

Of course. Though I don't think of it as abusing the system because it is a free refill.

Having worked at a restaurant, I can say that the refill usually isn't really "free". It's actually accounted for in the price of the drink.

That's not "abusing" a free refill service. It's called getting a second drink, or one for the road.

Well, that's kind of obvious really, or they wouldn't do it.
