hack at Starbucks... when you are overpaying for your delicious coffee beverages. That actually made me laugh out loud

[@PaulaZF]

The ice at Starbucks is so delicious! It’s filtered with silver. Actually never buy a bottle of water at Starbucks unless you really need the bottle. Get a free cup of water with ice. The water is filtered, as is the ice. (Some places do charge for water.) I worked at Starbucks for 6 years. There are are some hacks that are really annoying to baristas, like three shots over ice in a venti cold cup. Then you file the cup with milk at the condiments bar. Milk is the most expensive ingredient at Starbucks. If you get all that milk for free, eventually the prices go up. The ice tea mix is double strength, ask for no water in your ice tea, then go home and add water. Get two iced teas for the price of one.

@Team America I use to think like you until I was single. Its a bitch to cook for yourself. Yes, you can have left overs but after 4 days of the same food it gets boring & you burn out. To each their own.

[@ValTheMakeUpGal]

ALSO- chipotle: you can order extra of everything except protein & guacamole & it’s FREE/no extra charge....so, my family of 4 orders 2 bowls with extra everything. Then we add double meat which is around $2. So essentially we get 4 bowls for the price of 2 plus the extra protein cost :) if we buy 4 bowls it’s typically $40+ ... this option gets basically the same amount of food for around $25

I've actually weighed it. You always get more food with the Chipotle Burrito Bowl than their Burrito. You can even feel the obvious difference if you order one of each. Second tip, if you order a two item combo or more at Panda Express, if you get it to go (large styrofoam tray), they usually pack it with more food then when using a dine in plate.

I work at starbucks.... and most light ice drinks just add more milk, like a latte.... it will only have 2 shots of espresso in a grande iced and 3 in a venti iced (both venti and grande hot are only 2 shots!). All your changing is the flavor ratio of the drink. Chai latte again less ice more milk. Frappuccino less ice makes it airy, and if you add a hot shot of espresso it melts it ... making a mess of a drink to put any whipped cream, and very unappealing. I have people do both and request whip and it just sinks into the abyss. The better hacks for starbucks are drink specific... like ordering a latte with added Chai instead of a dirty Chai. - with love from a barista!

I've always avoided Starbucks after my initial visit in 1993, when they were new in L.A., and wanted to try it. The coffee was burned, bitter tasting and expensive.

My favorite go-to at McDonald's is to order their $3.00 Double cheese burger combo with small fries. I then ask them to hold the mustard and ketchup, add Big Mac sauce and shredded lettuce. They charge 30c extra for each. Add a drink and I spend $4.66 w/tax for my whole lunch.

Active Burger King employee here, the first hack in this video is entirely untrue for BK. When you alter an order, it gets put on the same screen for the kitchen as all of the other orders from the front counter or drive through, same goes for mobile or delivery orders. That means that we make it in the same rotation with the other orders, and use the same meat we would use as if it were a drive through order. If you want it fresh, ask for it cooked off the broiler or off the fryer at the speaker or register. There is a button for fresh off broiler or fryer in the order taker system and it shows up as “off broiler/fryer” on our screen in the kitchen. Here’s a real hack for you: If you want the whopper (or whopper sized sandwich) to actually be seasoned, ask for extra seasoning. A lot of kitchen workers skip seasoning the patties because it’s an extra step, and the orders are done faster without it.

Hey! Not sure if anyone mentioned it, but I'm a former member of management at Chick-fil-A. The strips are in a different marinade.

My mom was buying them at JTM meats store long after she sold the restaurant. The reason McDonald’s no longer have them on the menu it, was probably because, the meat company’s quit making them. Here’s the the thing JTM makes all there meat patties the same as those basically, there still have them, in square patty, which was there original size beef Patty to begin with.

You can sub round or scrambled if you don't want the folded egg. The folded egg is the only egg not cooked fresh but comes frozen. All sandwiches are made to order nothing premade under hot lights. They stopped doing that early 2000 if I remember correctly. My daughter is a manager I ask all kinds of questions.

I rarely go to McDonalds, but sometimes I'm hungry & they're the closest cheap meal. I order the double, then ask for extra ketchup & mayo. Slather it on & mix it up myself on the bun. Pretty close. If they don't have mayo, take tartar sauce--with ketchup it becomes thousand island dressing...again, similar to Mac sauce.

We did not ask them to hold the catsup and mustard, but they did anyway. They added less than 1/4 teaspoon of the MacSauce and charged an additional $.60, plus $.05 tax for each burger, for an additional charge of $1.30 for 1/4 teaspoon of sauce. The burgers are too dry to even eat as is. We are not happy McDonald customers.

This "hack" I discovered at a small local restaurant where I used to live in Maryland ... They offerred either a cup of soup or a bowl of soup (for about a dollar more) ... But, the bowl was a very SHALLOW dish with a deceiving depth for your extra dollar ... Because one day one person at my table ordered the bowl and I ordered the cup ... And, when we finished our soups ... I poured a glass of water into the cup ... and, then I poured the cup of water into the bowl ... And, the volume of the bowl (for that extra dollar) was identical to the volume of the cup ... So, wherever you find both a bowl and a cup of something ... beware of the possible difference or equality of volumes between the two ... and, SAVE A BUCK or MORE !!!

[@SkkyJuse]

This is absolutely true. The same thing happens at the place where my husband works. The redeeming factor is that the bowl of soup gets A LOT (for real though) more bread and expensive cheese for the topping on the French Onion.

The ice hack from Starbucks works for almost every coffee place. I sometimes ask for no ice at Dunkin Donuts especially since I still get the largest and it lasts me all day. If I got ice it would get watered down by the end. Love your tips, by the way! The McNugget one is one that I noticed years ago especially as a former manager trainee who was super skilled on the grill. Never understood why people didn't order the larger order. McNuggets reheat really well if you spritz them with a little water and heat them in the microwave or toaster oven.

[@tamerasphar9403]

If you ever saw how McNuggets are actually made, you would stick with chicken tenders.

[@markkleeblatt9001]

Once you spoon your bowl food into your tacos you have more than half a bowl left! Save it for the next meal!

FYI, McDonald's pricing can vary from location to location (even within the same city). In the city where I live, they do charge when you substitute Big Mac sauce for catsup on their regular and double cheeseburgers (a substitution I've been doing for years). One McDonald's hack I've found: Do not always order a combo as sometimes it may actually cost a bit more than if you ordered items individually. Don't be afraid to do the math. There was even a lawsuit regarding this I read about a few years back. McDonald's, I believe, won it under the "buyer beware" principle.

[@nadogrl]

But only if you microwave it. I don’t.

[@ramooxiv]

For best results use aluminum foil Way better than a paper towel

McDonald’s secret- I always get the two cheeseburgers instead of the big Mac because you’re exactly right it’s less money. This is a great video thank you

One thing it doesn’t have is lettuce 🤷‍♀️ but still good tip

[@marquitadennis7036]

I work at chick fil a, the filets are considerably more chicken than 2 strips.

[@stevec5465]

In NYC ordering the separate filets, bun, etc do not make it cheaper than just ordering the sandwich.

@@mariac.362 Don't let that person shame you. Dogs eat poop. A couple of nuggets is fine

[@dvdp-he9vu]

Its actually perfectly fine in a "once in a while" basis. They are semi-high in unhealthy fats, that can result in health problems if consumed regularly. Though, as long as its only given about once a month or less, and the dog is pretty active on a weekly basis, it should be fine.

[@dvdp-he9vu]

@@adrinacherie3446 fun fact: in many cases poop is actually more healthy than chicken nuggets for animal consumption. Even early humans used to do it to beef up their immunity to bacteria and other toxins, as well as aid their digestive system. :)

[@remylebeau2357]

@@deezusnubes no not really. They don't actually have exact portion sizes it's all a judgement call by the employee. The portions are always drastically different from employee to employee. The employees that act like they are rationing for the apocalypse make no sense to me at all lol they make it seem like they will not get to eat later if you get more haha makes more sense to pile it up for a better tip. I always tip 100% or more depending, but no less than 100% on good service. I only tip 30-45% on bad service.

Favorite fast food - Arby's Wagyu Steakhouse Burger - extra veggies, sauce on the side [so I can dip it in Horsey Sauce] This was Arby's 1st burger. It was taken off the menu but now back by popular demand. They advert that it's a blend of 51% American Wagyu Beef/49% regular ground Beef. It's YUM!
