I have to admit, I almost broke out laughing
 

My daughter and I went to dinner tonight at the place she is having her wedding reception at next month.

We are getting their Platinum plan because we wanted the open bar, wine with dinner, hors d'oeuvre laden waiters. It is going to be nice.

So anyway, we had to choose between four salads and three entrées. The dinner was to be comped. Nice treat.

My daughter ordered a Sprite to go with her meal. The waiter's response? "I am sorry miss. We have to charge you for the Sprite."

In other words, we will give you a $240 dinner on the house, but you are going to have to spring for that soda.

I refrained from laughing, but it was tough.

With the dinner at $240, I wonder if the Sprite was $20...

Just scrawl "BYOB" on the invitation.

Tomorrow: cake tasting. I should have had more daughters.

Bring your own milk.

Lol, you would think that would cover a soda.

Several years ago I was at the beach with some friends. We go into Dairy Queen and order some stuff. A friend of mine just wants a glass of water to drink. They tell him, "The water is free, but I have to charge you 10 cents for the cup."

We all started laughing. Between us we had ordered around $35 worth of food and ice cream and they wanted another 10 cents for their cup.

Be sure they won't start charging your guests for sodas and water the wedding day! :upsidedow

aren't you the one ending up having to pay for everything?

thats crazy...I would have said something to the mgr.

you racked up 240$ at mcdonalds? WOW YOU FAT MOTHER FUCKERS JESUS OH LORD MIGHTY CHRIST. No wonder america is so obese you big ole bastard

I would have told your friend to just stick his mouth under the tap just to make a mess and make them clean it up. See if it was worth the 10c to get the cup versus the 15 minutes of labor to clean the mess :)

That's hawt...

I wonder whether that's company policy or just the employee's lack of finesse?!

Hmm this situation reminds me to scene from one tv serie but cant remember which.

lol, brave new world, isnt it :P

almost in a way.. it reminds me of my wedding... the place we had the wedding at insisted we had flowers of course (nothing new there) but... because we got married on Lake tahoe... on on the lake, not the shore... we were told (on the wedding date) we could not have real flowers or rice or anything else that might land in the waters of the lake for fear of contamination or the disrespect of the lake.

Dont get me wrong.. it was the most awesome wedding ever and all the wedding pics in the snow (was in beginning of April) kicked ass and I couldn't of asked for more


if only the marriage was as awesome... going on 6 yrs divorced now. Dont know why I shared this.. but I did, so get over it

The latter perhaps! :disgust

Good stuff... Thx

wow never stops amazing me the crap that happens after you pay for something big

i wouldnt have refrained lol

now you gotta wonder what kinda bullshit they will pull on you during the wedding

im sure it was just the waiter being a douche

lol! the sprite comes with the package.

I'm so glad we avoided all this BS and has a nice reasonable basic wedding.

:1orglaugh Good idea.
