    We only go in summer to McD to eat a Sundea Ice, but its a bit crazy that they say they can't fill up to the skim.

    McD used to have 25 coffee for seniors, do they still do that? I don't go anymore for health reasons.

    With the world economy the way it is you'll see more and more of that sort of thing.... better hope the corn syrup folks are as powerfull as the Insurance Companies.... I seem to remember talk of a tax increase on soda and sweetened beverages; if something like that happens you'll see more and more 'gouging' of the consumer... Kool aide anyone?

    I have been drinking more and more home brewed green tea, no sugar, thanks! McD's hasn't made much off from me in about 25 years.

    I would have told them to skip the drink then if they can't fill it. that should stop that.

    I didn't eat at McD's at all til DGD moved in with me. Someone took her there and now that's where she always wants to eat. I limit the visits. Still don't like the place.

    I've noticed that at most McD's as well. The iced coffee drinks aren't filled to the top either and the sandwiches are smaller though it seems that the dollar ones have shrunk the most.
    There's no way any McD's can be loosing $$ or they wouldn't stay in business. The drinks are cheap to make, think about how many they can make out of a squirt of syrup and some ice.
    Just my thoughts on the subject.
    Now I'm off to get an iced coffee! :) :)

    I stopped at a McDonald's on my way home from work last night and got the McNugget meal. My drink was completely full. I can check some others out in the area. Not only was my drink full, but all 3 people I interacted with were very nice, pleasant people. Overall, it was a really nice McDonald's.
