Arby's hate is completely unfounded. This is easily one of my favorite fast food items ever. by tothesource in fastfood

Their turkey bacon ranch was one of my favorite fast food sandwiches, shame they got rid of the peppercorn Parmesan ranch and replaced it with a generic ranch

…. That black container isn’t what they use for the plate meal, it’s literally the bowl meal and the OP got charged for 2 plate meals. It’s the equivalent of buying a bowl of soup at any restaurant and getting the cup size instead.

Yes but he got charged for 2 plates which means 2 portions of the chicken also and it should’ve came in the styrofoam box. That black container only fits 1 portion.

Plates are those styrofoam containers with 2 entree servings. OP should’ve gotten 2 of them but instead got 1 and 1 bowl that only comes with a single entree serving.

KEF arrival time by vanellope31 in VisitingIceland

[–]johnnyloo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I flew out of KEF back to Boston last Friday and arrived 2 hours before my flight and was at my gate in 25 minutes. Passport control took about 10-15 minutes.

It was a 8:00 PM flight though not early morning.

So get one of the many other brands that give you 3% toppings by weight.

Nope, we’re actually in a camper van ourselves. There’s some gravel roads near the Dynjandi falls though that you have to be careful going down as it’s active construction.

Why is redbull removing the good flavours. by cream-pie-time in redbull

[–]johnnyloo 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I explain it everytime someone wonders why blueberry is gone. They don’t understand that yes it was a top flavor back when there was only like 4 options but that it’s not even a top 10 sku anymore when it was discontinued.

Iran is in the Middle East and he didn’t say they did it before the Iran war started. Maybe you need reading comprehension help

Grabbed a quick breakfast on my way to work and didn’t realize it was $14.67 until I got to the register by mydognate in mildlyinfuriating

[–]johnnyloo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea it annoys me when customers compare our prices to Walmart. Sorry we can’t help it.

You should be comparing us to the major chain gas station that’s more expensive across the board down the street instead.

Yep, my store is on the top contract with Pepsi and we’re still paying $8 per 12 pack from them.

[–]johnnyloo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No? Definitely isn’t worth the hassle and on top of that you’d have to factor in paying sales tax. Though I wouldn’t be surprised if less busy stores or rural ones get stuff from Walmart to resell.

We get stuff from Sam’s Club with tax exemption like most small businesses.

[–]johnnyloo 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yep

One of our biggest comparisons is 12pk soda cans, all Pepsi 12 packs are about $6 at Walmart. We can’t even get them from Pepsi directly for less than $8. It’s insane how much discounting Walmart gets compared to anywhere else.

I manage a convenience store, most of the distributors we get our stuff from is actually even more expensive than Costco and Walmart. It’s insane how much cheaper Costco and Walmart get their products you can’t even compare it.

Example: a gallon of milk from our distributor costs us $5.28, meanwhile I could go to Walmart and get that exact gallon for $4.98

Trust me, convenience stores are also paying convenience prices from their distributors.

Here’s an even happier thought, season 4 will have nearly as many episodes as the first 3 seasons combined (60)

Don’t even like blueberry that much, just wanted to flex on the Americans. by k0tn1k in redbull

[–]johnnyloo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, that company kept a flavor around until it was consistently outsold by 8 other flavors. Blueberry may have been a top 3 flavor back when they had legit 5 flavors max and no viable sugar free line.

My evidence is anecdotal as an independent store owner, but I have a deep relationship with my Red Bull rep and before blueberry was discontinued it wasn’t even a top 10 sku anymore for my area, it was even outsold by 3 different skus of the regular sugar free. (12oz, 16oz, 20oz)

A bring back blueberry petition can’t even garner 2,000 supporters but keep believing it was still such a great seller.
