Wendy's is starting a new promotion on November 1st (although some stores have already switched to the new cups) where you get an "AirTran Flight Coupon" on their drink cups. You can turn a bunch of them in toward free air travel under AirTran's A+ Rewards program.
I want these. I will pay 25c each for them or will trade items from my list for sets of them. So, go there, dig through the garbage, and make yourself some cash. I can send PayPal or cash. When you mail them, I'll also cover the postage too so that you get the full 25c per coupon.
Also, just to note it, most Wendy's have free refills on drinks and actually give you another cup when you get one. In other words, you go to the counter after you finish your drink and ask for a refill. Various regulations say that they can't take your old cup back across the counter and fill it -- for sanitary reasons, of course. So, they just ask what you had and give you another one. So, in most stores, you can actually get two of these cups for each drink purchase. That's 50c per visit. Do that a few times a week and I'm buying you lunch now and then!
So -- start collecting them and let me know when you have a set of at least 4 or so and I'll buy them from you. Thanks!

I went today and pulled some out of the garbage (I have no shame). Worked well. The garbage was full of them -- but I only grabbed a couple on top.
So -- someone go dumpster diving at their local Wendy's, grab 20 of these things, and I've got some cash for ya!

They did that to me today too -- even though it is against the law. In Michigan, at least, food service companies CANNOT accept anything from the customer and take it back behind the counter. That is why they started giving new cups about a year or so ago -- because they were warned about the practice. The guy today did it though -- although he seemed new. I'm going to see how it goes.
In any case, the better bet is the trash anyhow. Everyone in the restaurant that I was in was just throwing them away. I didn't have the balls to just ask them for their cups. Someone could sit by the trash at lunch as they ate and go "Hey -- I'm collecting those cups, can I have it instead of you throwing it away?" and have a ton of them in a few minutes...

Indeed -- that'd be great. I'd be more than happy to buy 10 or 20 at a time from people. The promo doesn't end until the end of December -- so waiting to build some up is just fine.
If people get a bunch and would rather trade for something on my list, that'd fine too.

So....how many cases of cups do you want?
Btw, I've never heard of any laws prohibiting a restaurant refilling your original cup (perhaps Michigan is different), but it has been Wendy's own policy nationally to do so for at least 10 years. If you go for a refill, don't even offer them your cup. If they ask for it (which they shouldn't, must have been an ex-McD employee, hehe), simply tell them you want a new cup. | John

I've been told by both local Wendy's stores that they aren't allowed to take any customer item back across the counter and use it again. I've heard this at other non-Wendy's fast food places too when people bring mistakes back to the counter.
> but it has been Wendy's own policy nationally to do so for at least 10 years.
Well, about a year ago, our Wendy's all stopped taking your cup to refill it -- and started giving new cups. When they first started doing it (and it seemed odd to be giving us a new cup), they repeatedly would say that they were no longer allowed to refill cups due to "regulations" -- and would therefore give a new cup.
Up until this promo, that is. They now are doing refills again at our local stores -- because of these promo cups.

They are "wise" to it -- tried that yesterday. They won't give new cups to me because of the coupons. *shrug*
I'm still pulling them out of the trash though.

What I'm saying is that they are doing it due to internal policy, not because of any law or health regulation. It's not a law in Florida, yet we still do this. Other restaurants may be following suit as well. Hell, they copy us all the time, heh.

Well, the local franchisee was not operating according to Wendy's guidelines. Not sure when Wendy's put the policy into place, but it was in place "for years" before I became involved, which was 8 years ago.

I am trying to find out how this should be handled. I suspect that they should be taking the cup back, but then still issuing a new cup. Food safety is an important issue with Wendy's and I doubt the official procedure would be to have that take a back seat to any promotion.

I will let you know what I find out about the official policy. If your local restaurant is not following it, it would be simple for you to call the 800 hotline and report this. That is usually a persuasive way to get them to change.  | John

Got ya. They are the last ones that I know of that don't have people doing their own drinks anyhow. All of the others that I have been to -- except the in-the-mall places -- all have the fountain machines just out for your own use now.
I used to not go to Wendy's much at all because I tend to drink a lot and you couldn't get refills. I had no idea that you could go to the counter and get a refill until I happened to be there when a guy did it! Now I go there commonly again. They really should make it more known that they do free refills -- I think it must negatively effect business -- it did in my case, at least.
Do you know if you can get more than one refill? I've always just done one there -- because I wasn't sure if I could go up again. At McD's, for example, I almost always refill twice if I eat in. I'm a thirsty guy. heh.

Interestingly, this is what was done today at the other local Wendy's. They took my old cup from me, threw it away, and then gave my refill in a new one. The other one, which I've been to three times since the promo started, just takes my used cup and refills it.
Both stores, before the promo, would just give me a new cup and leave it to me to throw out the old one.

Well, normally, I just feel like it is wasting a cup and causing more garbage. I'd personally rather they just take it and fill it. I mean, that's what happens at every other fast food place these days -- with people doing their own refills in their used cups -- so I don't have a problem with Wendy's doing that. So, I was a bit disappointed when they went to this new system of doing a new cup on a refill -- since it's just extra garbage. Especially if it is NOT a law that they have to do it. If they don't have to, then I wish they'd just go back to always refilling the cup that I got in the first place. (Except for this promo, of course. )

Yes, you can get as many refills as you want in one visit. They most likely advertised this more a few years ago, but pretty much every quick service restaurant gives free refills these days, so it probably isn't advertised as much anymore.
I know it seems wasteful to throw away a perfectly good cup with every refill, but that's just how adamant Wendy's is about food safety. They don't want to chance contaminating their ice supply with the germs of any customer. Even if they use the ice scoop like they are supposed to, that scoop could still touch the rim of the used cup and pick up your nasty bugs.  | John 

| | #16 posted November 2, 2005 at 2:48pm (EST) |
That's true -- I forgot that Wendy's was still scooping. The self-service ones don't have that problem.
In any case, the one local one is definitely refilling my cup starting with this promo. They used to always give me a new one (starting a year or two ago, as I said) -- but now they are just refilling the promo cups.

They shouldn't be refilling your old cup I don't think, but I will verify that. Like I said earlier, a promotion doesn't take precedent over food safety.
My thought is that the decision to stay away from self-service is a financial one. Not only will customers pour more drinks with a self-service setup (often wasting a lot of soda), but the maintenance on the self-serve equipment is also much higher, mostly due to abuse.
Btw, you needn't get in line again to get your refill. You should be able to walk up to the end of the counter and get the cashier's attention and have them refill when they get a break. | John

Agreed -- and by not telling customers that they do refills, they save even more.
That being said, pop is cheap relatively. I think they lose more customers (like me -- that didn't know they did refills) than they likely make up for financially by not doing self-service. That's just my guess though. Although, it does make some logical sense -- based on pretty much everyone else switching to a self-service setup over the past few years...

Yep -- do that already. Sometimes, I feel weird because the people in line for food give me a look -- but then, when they realize I'm just getting a refill, it usually isn't so bad. This again goes back to lots of people not knowing about the refills, I think...

I seriously doubt that "lots of people" don't know about the free refills. In fact, I am really surprised that you were unaware of the free refill policy. Can you name another quick-service restaurant (without self-serve) that doesn't give free refills? | John

I can't name any fast-food restaurant besides Wendy's that doesn't have self-service these days actually, so I can't give you an example.
However, BEFORE everyone went self-service, other places (McD's, Burger King, and so on) did NOT offer free refills. 5-10 years ago when it was all behind the counter, they didn't offer them. So, when the rest went to self-service and Wendy's did not, I never assumed that they were doing free refills. Maybe they were years before everyone else went self-service, but I certainly didn't know about it.
On a side note, I've actually mentioned the free refill at Wendy's thing to several friends and NONE of them knew that you could do that. So, I KNOW it isn't common knowledge. Most people just don't think that you can go back to the counter and get a free refill.
Also, the only fast-food places, besides Wendy's, that I know of that don't have self-service drinks today are the in-the-mall ones (which range from McD's to Sbarro to New York Fries in our nearest mall) -- and NONE of them offer free refills in the mall. Granted, the mall is different apparently -- but those are the only current fast-food places that I know of, besides Wendy's, that don't have self-service drinks -- and they don't offer free refills.

Doing a bit of research, it looks like Wendy's actually started the free refills thing years ago! I never knew. So when all the rest started advertising free refills at the self-service stations, Wendy's should have done some huge marketing stating that they'd been doing free refills at the counter already for years -- but I never saw anything like that.
Again, I've told many people about the free refills at the counter thing -- and none of them knew about it beforehand. They just figure that if it isn't self-service like everyone else, that they aren't doing refills.

Must be a regional thing with the near-unamimous decision to go with self-serve as I would say it's about half and half around here. Burger King and Taco Bell are about the only major chains that consistently put self-serve in almost all their restaurants.

Again, I can only think this was regional. I was in the Hardee's business in Georgia before going with Wendy's and we went to 25-cent refills in the 80's before finally going to free refills in the early 90's, mainly because all our competitors were doing the same. Self-serve stations were fairly uncommon at that time.

Sounds like your local operators have done a very poor job of conveying the message. Granted, less than 25% of our customers dine in our restaurants these days, so the refill issue isn't major, but that's pretty weird that you and your friends were unaware of a service that has been provided for many years. | Ramsey

I agree that I would love to advertise that all the "new" stuff that our competitors do is often stuff they have copied from us, but I guess it runs the risk of sounding like sour grapes and/or giving our competitors free publicity. McD's new salads are a blatent ripoff as is their $1 menu. They also played around with the idea of doing made-to-order instead of premaking most of their food....from what I've read, that seems to be more than they can handle. | John

Interesting. Maybe it is regional. Two of our McDonald's were just completely remodeled and rebuilt -- both have built-in-the-building self-service drink counters now. It's actually part of the building design itself.

There are just no signs or anything that I know of. I can easily see people not assuming that you can go back to the counter and ask for a refill.
So -- at your nearby McD's and such -- that don't have the self-service drinks, can you just go back to the counter and get refills? Interesting...

Indeed. I still think Wendy's food -- especially burgers -- is far superior to McD's.
I've been having Wendy's singles without the bun lately and they are just plain good stuff. You can really tell burger meat quality/taste when you stop eating the buns. Makes a big difference. A Wendy's burger without the bun is just so much better than a McD's burger without the bun that it isn't even funny...
So -- you still work for Wendy's, right?

Yeah, I would think almost any new McD would install the self-serve station. Many of the older ones just haven't gotten around to it, but I suspect that within the next 10 years, most will have done so as they get remodeled.

They probably had them when the message was new, years and years ago. But there is limited space in a restaurant for signage, so it was most likely replaced by other signs over the years. You can only throw so many ads at a customer before you create confusion and your messages get watered down. Even so, they should reinforce the free refill message every so often, as obviously there are some people that don't realize it's offered.

Due to competitve pressure, there is really no way for a quick service restaurant to charge for refills. It is so prevalent, that it would be viewed very negatively. Same goes for accepting credit cards. Five years ago, very few QSRs took credit cards. In the last few years, more and more chains are offering this service. I suspect in the next five years, that almost all be accepting credit cards as it will become an industry standard and most customers will assume you do it (like free refills). | Ramsey

Surprisingly, I agree.
Actually I thought this even before getting involved with Wendy's. Then I found out why. I was used to the Hardee's methods. Frozen meat delivered once a week, placed frozen on the grill, and then made into a sandwich based on sales projections, sometimes regardless of what orders were being placed. The sandwiches sit in a heated metal bin until you order them or they sit too long and get tossed (wink, wink). McD and BK do it the same way (except BK uses the flame broiler and the microwave).
With Wendy's, the beef is never frozen, delivered 3 times a week. It is constantly being cooked on the grill, but never made into a sandwich until you order it. If a burger sits too long on the grill without being needed as a sandwich, it gets used to make the next batch of chili. Fresh, cooked to order beats frozen, sitting in a bin pretty much every time.

Yeah, I'm hearing on FatWallet of all kinds of people dumpster diving.
The local Wendy's here have the dumpster in a fenced area -- but with just a drop-pin holding the doors shut (i.e. not locked). But, I haven't had the kahunas to go in there for a bag or two yet. Especially since it is in view of the drive through window.
I was hoping to find some young kid that takes out the garbage and just ask him if I can have the bags or something. heh.

For us, it's a big safety issue. I can just see us getting sued by someone who hurts themself (or fakes an injury) while dumpster diving.
Btw, the "official" stance on refills is to take the old cup and refill with a new cup. We have already told our managers to allow people to keep the old cup if they really want it. No need to create a scene over something like this.  | John

I guess AirTran should have suspected this kind of stuff would happen. The max you can turn in is 128 btw. I suppose some people will create extra accounts with AirTran to get past that too.

That is why I said that I want 256. You can do 128 per A+ Rewards account -- and my wife and I each have one since you need a seperate one for each flyer.

I think I've only seen a couple -- and they were in malls, where no one seems to have free refills. *shrug*
