If milk is rape, does that make this prostitution?
The question:

Is it fair/right for a customer to order what we, at my store, call a "ghetto-latte"?

The "ghetto-latte" is ordering any size Iced Americano, with no water and half ice (This lady's drink is an Iced Venti, no water, half ice, Americano). She then takes the drink and goes to the condiments bar and adds her own half and half.


Seems reasonably simple, right?

Not something you'd expect to cause, say, a three-month, several-hundred comment long flamewar which would eventually get heated enough that comments would be closed?

Apparently, none of us know Starbucks that well.

So, water is free and usually refills are free, too, right? I'll take this opportunity to get myself a bit educated before the next tipping wank...

Refills are free on my fountain drinks like Coke, Sprite, and ginger ale. Not on fresh juices or bottled water, etc.

They're free on regular coffee & iced tea but not hot tea, usually.

There's a restaurant near where I live that does free refils of their fresh, homemade lemonade.

The food's great, but the chance to drink all the marvellous lemonade my little heart desires is enough on its own to make me love the place.

But be careful to check the menu before asking for refills, because some places still charge by the cup.
