    You have to wonder what idiot thought this was a good idea. It just means people will grab a soda and not pay for it.

      That’s probably their argument. They probably thought that by removing the water option, people won’t be able to sneak soda and pretend they were getting free water.

        Really sucks for us non soda drinkers. Maybe they think “if we remove the free water, people will spend money on a soda.” Nah. Not me.

          Yeah it’s not a good solution at all. Would have been better to have a separate place for water to serve both purposes. I see a lot of places that will have a glass pitcher dispenser on the side of a soda dispenser just for water.

          The water usually tastes better from these, anyway. Not polluted by the sugary soda/carbonation that comes from the same dispenser.

          Would also be obvious that someone isn’t getting free soda and pretending to get water since it’s a totally different place.
