Drink enough fountain soda and you'll eventually get handed that cup full of ice with a slight hint of drink filling in the few gaps. And then there are people with sensitive teeth who find it painful to drink beverages with ice in them. These are both reasons that some customers go the "no ice" route when buying drinks. But some restaurant owners think you should sometimes have to pay extra for that privilege.
Consumerist reader Simon pointed us to this posting on a Sonic Facebook page. The customer says she popped into his local Sonic to buy a drink during the restaurant's Happy Hour promotion only to find she'd been charged $.40 extra for no ice.
No they should not. But if they do, then you should not go back.
