I could have gotten that drink refill on my own. Man, restaurants screw you. They spend way too much money advertising. Their volume must be too low. Too many restaurants. Hopefully the market will correct itself and drive some of these restaurants out of business so we can have lower prices. We all know less competition equals lower prices.

are you aware of the number of restaurants that go out of business every year?
THe great thing is we now live in the information age, and people that profited based on other people's ignorance, and lack of access to information, are going to be in a world of hurt. Realtors are among those people.
