I used to do that all the time with McDonald’s, but a large soda from McDonald’s is $1. Chic fil a costs way more for a soda. A McDonald’s soda is cheaper than a gas station bottle of soda.

Eating is absolutely an equal addiction to nicotine, weed, etc. This entire comment section really drives it home.

I wouldn’t call it equal, but it can be an addiction. Sometimes you just want something nice in your life when your life is shit. Nearly everyone’s got ar least one thing. Sometimes it’s a sweet treat, sometimes it’s soda, sometimes it’s alcohol, etc. some are better to have than others.

In what country is McDonalds soda that cheap? It's way more expensive where I live.

USA. it’s been $1 for any size soda for years. But looks like some McDonald’s in the US are raising the price.

Wow, it's 3.49€ for a big one in Germany. And just to clarify, with "big one", I mean half a litre. In stores, there are 1-2 litre bottles that are cheaper.

I love fountain pop. It's just not the same as the store bought stuff. When McDonald's has their $1 drink day sale on (only in summer here) I'll go through the drive thru for just a large Diet Coke. But now that it's over I wouldn't pay the regular price, and definitely wouldn't do it at all if I had to borrow $20 to eat in the first place.

McDonald's has a fantastic soda mix 95% of the time. It's something they're fairly reliable at at maybe 95% the time, which is far more reliable than most other fast food services.
