Train & McDonalds...
The train thingy has hit me yesterday...
I could not believe that there is one train person per train compartment... :ohmy: I guess it's a good way to keep people in employment, I guess... And Saturday on my way to Sylvia Park, there was this guy who had a one stage ticket (Need 3 stage to Sylvia Park) well he was asked to purchase a new ticket or leave the train once we entered the second stage bit... Today, as I came back from Newmarket, I had no cash but Eftpos only to pay for my $1.40 ticket... He just told me that he'll take me to the ticket office when we reach britomart so I can pay... I apologised and sat there waiting for the humiliation once in Britomart. As we reached, I went to him and said "You meeting me at ticket office?" He just said "No, go up there and pay!" I was so shocked that I went n paid!! The woman that took my payment was even more surprised... McDonalds, been here 4 weekd and had today my first NZ McDonalds... Well people, over here you have to pay 50cents for your mayo... Unbelievable!! |

If you hadn't handed over $1.40 for no good reason to the train people you'd have been able to afford two sachets of mayo. And maybe a few napkins.
In France, condiments are free... Pretty sure that I never paid for them in the UK either... Not a big deal, just little differences...:sneaky: |
Re: Train & McDonalds...
I wonder if that's a franchise thing? I haven't had to pay for condiments at mcdonalds or burger king.

Re: Train & McDonalds...
you didnt use to have to pay for them, but in all the macd's near me where i lived they would give you one free per burger but then pay 10p for extra , i alsways did as i liked bbq and mayo lol greedy

Re: Train & McDonalds...
Mayo and Sauce is free in Macs in Welly.....all in sachets though...in Reading they were in big pump bottles with cardboard cup thingies to hold small portions.

Dont go telling Mr Matewx... OR else I'll be in troubles... :unsure: |
Re: Train & McDonalds...
in NP its in sachets if you ask at counter, otherwise its in big pump bottles where you get napkins etc which is a good idea... I think you only get charged if takeaway..
im not a big macD fan either but i do treat lucy once in a while as she loves to get the happy meal toy, its a big adventure for her lol |
